New weight loss thread

The old one was getting lost in the shuffle. :)

So yesterday was the first day in a really long time I was motivated to go to the gym.  But I had to study ALL day, since the test was today.  Which I did, surprisingly enough!  I will make an effort to go tomorrow, I want want want to run.

Ashleyanne, I looked into the Nike + shoes....I wish I had the extra money to get a pair right now...

Re: New weight loss thread

  • Sorry to butt in...you can use the nike+ w/o the shoes.  All you need to do is get a shoe pouch and wear it on your laces.  I used one with a nano for a really long time and then used the sport band.

  • Yup, I run with mine in a pouch that velcros around my laces. =)  Nike shoes are too narrow for my man feet, lol

  • I'm so proud, I got up and did C25K this morning, even though I was partying a bit last night and kinda drank a bit :) And I did Hot Hatha Yoga on Wednesday, after running 2 miles that morning! woot. Haven't weighed in a few days though...

    Mine are wide too, I usually wear new balances or sauconys.  Thanks for the heads up!

  • Ugh. I should've gone to the gym today. The broken AC kept me sluggish all day! Tomorrow is my first WW weigh in since starting the plan!

  • I went to the trail today even though I REALLY didn't want to. It wasn't entirely on purpose- I wasn't paying attention and missed the exit for my house. Darn MJ mixes on the radio had me rockin out and not paying attention. It was one of those workouts where it's a battle the whole time- everything hurt, there was no rhythm or pace, it was just uncomfortable the whole time.

    And to top it off, some speed racer old man passed me 4 times. Yes, 4. That means he did 4 miles in the time I did 2 and he was still going when I got to the end. After the 4th pass I said "eff this I'm going home". So here I am... and I'm going to get a chocolate sundae from McD's and no one is going to stop me.

    So there.

  • Oh, so what you need to look for is the Nike+ Sport Kit.  It comes with the shoe sensor and the remote that plugs into your iPod.  Unless you have an iPod touch or a new iPhone, then Nike+ is built in and you don't need the remote so you would just need a Nike+ sensor.  

    You also need to get something to keep your sensor in... here's a link to the one I use:

    http://www.seejanerun.com/p-2401-sensor-pocket-for-nike-system-by-nathan.aspx?zmam=58941109&zmas=1&zmac=32&zmap=2401

    I have used it for years and it's never come loose or even come close to coming off.

    You can get the sport kit or sensor at any apple store or nike store and most sport stores like Sports Authority and certainly any running store.

  • I weighed in this morning at my WW meeting. I lost 0.6 pounds, which doesn't seem big, but it dropped me into the 170s! I was 185 before the wedding!

  • I weighed in this morning and I was 146.4 which is a 2.2 loss this week and a 4.4 loss overall. I'm really starting to see results and noticing that my clothes are already getting better.

    Thank you Ashley for the recommendation to just eat things I like in moderation!!

  • Way to go ladies!  I'm down to 233 today, but I think my earlier 234 starting report was a fluke...I think I was at least 235 to start.  So that's good.  Let's see what it says monday tho.

  • I looked into getting the Nike + today, but it turns out you have to have the nano, touch, or iphone, or a wrist band to use it.  I have the ipod classic and it won't work on that. :(
