Today there was a special meeting at one of the Weight Watchers locations I go to. The topic was different from the regular meetings that are held nationwide this week. We talked about being more active and how to balance it with your Weight Watchers plan. Since I’ve been plateauing since August, I thought it was a good idea to go.
It turned out to be a fantastic meeting!
We talked about...

I was browsing Jog.fm for new running music because I’m getting a little bored with my current playlist and because I want to push or faster paces. Jog.fm is great because it suggests songs based on your desired/current pace. It leads me to the following question:
What’s your favorite song(s) to run to?

You have mental strength. You’re 45 pds less, that takes mental strength.U will get through this, all the running, bet it’s muscle. Make a conscious effort 2 block thoughts of feeling restricted, like ur missing out. This will help. I’m backing U :)
Thanks so much for the kind words and the on going support!...

45 pounds is amazing and you’re running freaking 10Ks!
Thanks honey! I think one of the issues I’ve been struggling with is the fact that I’ve made so much progress lately with my running - I do run freaking 10Ks, difficult ones too! - that it’s hard to accept that it’s not showing on...

Mental strength. I don't seem to have it.
I mentioned yesterday that my latest weigh in wasn’t stellar. The last two days have been a little tough for me because I’ve been struggling with motivation for a while and the fact that what I thought to be a great week turned out to be a 1 lbs gain, well, that didn’t help. I’ve been plateauing since August and while I’m perfectly aware that this is normal and that I...

Today sucked. I see a pattern.
Apparently I don’t have the luxury of having great Tuesdays anymore.
Despite the fact that I ran 20 miles since my last weigh in (and 6.2 out of those at a very challenging course), I managed to “gain” 1 lb. At this point I’m angry and frustrated with my weight loss because I know that technically I should be losing. There is no way that I have underestimated my...

Running for Fun: Be a Plateau Killer →
runrunningrunner:
We train. We get stronger, maybe faster, and we build endurance. We lose weight, we get leaner … And then we don’t. The dreaded “P” word - Plateau - is upon us.
Why does it happen?
As we become stronger, our regular run or swim or workout video isn’t as intense anymore. We’ve adapted; it starts…
I’m so bad about strength training. I definitey need to start doing...

I remember exactly where I was 365 days ago. I weighed 105 pounds. I wore tiny skinny jeans that won’t fit over my calves now, brown suede ankle boots, my Avett Brothers t-shirt, and a green and white flannel shirt. I took the ACT, then went to Huntington with my boyfriend and his dad, where we…
