redneckwoman66, Just because I have been struggling, dosen't mean your group has a chance in the challenge. You might as well raise your white flag.

Had a good day had 1,500 calories. Ran my 4 miles in 44:42, a new record for me. I wasn't even trying to run fast, I was shoked when I got done.

200 Days

My 2 Week Diet Plan started 200 days ago. Hard to believe. The ultimate goal for my 2 week diet plan was to lose weight. But I had a lot of things I needed to change in my life. It all started 08/13/06. I believe God gave me a gift, that was is my 2 week diet plan. I have to give God the credit, because that is where I believe it came from. Anyway it came like a bolt of lighting I had to change my life & how to do it. Since I had to change my life. I had to tackle problem areas & take the first one & cut it out of my life for 2 weeks. I started on Monday 08/15/05. The two biggest problems were 1. I had at least a 12 pack of Diet Soda a day. 2. Sugar & lots of it. Between sugar & Diet soda; Diet soda would be harder to give up. So that is what I did. It was very very very very hard. I can not possibly tell you. I made the 2 weeks. After that I had to decide if I could go back to drinking Diet Soda, maybe one or two a day. I did not feel I was ready. So I still did not have any diet soda. It was now time 2 change something else. I'm sure you can guess, sugar out of my diet. Whats neat once I started not having sugar, soda was no longer a problem. After the 2 weeks of sugar, I did not feel I was ready to have any so I continued not to have any sugar. Now it was time to add something else. Well I tended to feast after dinner so I gave up eating anything after dinner. Since my focus was on something else, I no longer thought of the soda or sugar. The first or second week of not eating after dinner (on a wed.). I went into Wal-Mart to buy a shirt that would fit. I did not have that many things that fit. I said what are you doing. You have done all of these really hard, very very very, hard things all I have to do now is count my calories and the pounds will come off. The next day (09/29/06) I started losing weight. This is way to long so I will get into more details the rest of the week.

If you give it a try remember 2 weeks. If you have the item your giving up one time you start your 2 weeks again.
If you give it a try you have to give up something that is huge for you!!!!

This is about a life time change.

I still have not had soda. Right now I don't know if I ever will. I might don't know.
I do have sugar now. Last week I had 2 chocolates out of a box of chocolate. The week before I had a Hershey kiss. Sometimes I will have more, I'm just in control.
I eat after dinner now. Only if its planned, & in my calories for the day.

Some ideas of things you can change.
sugar, coffee, drugs, smoking, not exersing, ETC....

JUST DO IT BIG!!!!!

Wow, that's great. I'm getting inspired from all sides today, did you read NewBride's journal, she gave me the chills too! Thanks & keep up the great work!
 
Wooooohooooooooooo You Go Guy I New You Would Get Past Them Blahs Keep It Coming Hehehe We Are Gonna Win!!!!!
 
Took A Day Off

I took a day off yesterday from health, no diet, no exercise, just did what I wanted.

Back to work today though, right back on track. Left for my run this morning at 5:00 AM. :eek: Ran 10 miles:eek: in 2 hours 25 minutes. 52 seconds. I have never gone 10 miles before, the most I had gone before this was 8 miles & it was almost all walking. I did that on 12/10/05 in 2 hours 31 minutes 17 seconds.
Right now my goal for my usual run of 4 miles is to keep my time 15 minutes a mile or less. I kept that pace for the whole 10 miles. So I'm going to have to think about lowering my mile pace for the 4 miles.

Woooooohoooooooo On The 10 Miles You Are Doing Great Its Magic Monday Lets Rock Them Scales!!
 
Doing good!!! Have done my running the last two days. It was tough yesterday probley because of the 10 miles on sunday. Today my 4 miles felt great. I think I ran my 3Rd. or 4Th. fastest time.
After much thought I'm not going to up my mileage or try to go faster. I think I have been pushing much to hard. I have to remember I have a long way to go & a injury because I'm increasing things to fast would be dumb.
Now my problem I have people (even people on the street) stopping me all the time, talking to we about how I'm doing & how great I look. I need to stay focused, I'm only 1/2 way done losing weight. It really makes you feal good & believe it. I know the reality, I have a long way to go. I cannot believe the hype, it makes me think, oh I can eat this or that I look good.

Oh You Are Doing Great And You Are Probably Inspiring The Other Peoiple Who Have Seen Your Dedication And Weightloss Just Keep Up The Good Work I New You Could Do It And Do It Big Its Wonderful Wednesday So Lets Rock Them Scales!
 
You can believe the hype Chip, but use it as inspiration to continue. Just because your looking good doesnt mean you cant look better! :cool:
 

Here's the thing - you look good! - But you can look better!
I can't believe you can run so much - you are awesome! I wish I could do that.. I'm trying - I guess I really only started a while ago but when I run I can only run for like 5 mintues straight without having to turn down my treadmill speed. I wish I could run outside but it's cold and icy so I don't want to end up on me butt. Did you weight yourself yet? I'm excited - I want to see what kind of progress you've done! Cheers!

Wow! Totally inspiring... keep up the great work. :)
 
You are such an awesome person. I read your journal everyday and it keeps me saying to myself...I can do that! You are a real motivator. If I am ever feeling like I am doing bad or slacking off, I read your journal and I say to myself: "That just put me back on track!" Thanks so much for that...you are doing such an awesome job!!! I also really like your two week thing. Im going to have to try that! I bought a pass yesterday to the YMCA and I think Im going to do the two week thing with it. Thanks for the great inspiring ideas!
 
I have to agree with Sara, you're really inspiring to all of us. Don't let people stop you while you're exercising to tell you how great you look, take the compliment, of course you deserve it, but keep on going, they'll see it's from hard work & you'll remember that you got where you are from your long term dedication & very hard work! Congratulations, you ARE great, and you CAN do even better!
