Getting in shape- Share your goals and progress! Posted on: 13.09.2011 by Leann Zugay So I'm trying my hand at living a healthier lifestyle than I have been for the past few years. In highschool I was running 4:30 1600m and 16:45ish 5k but as soon as I went to college I was consumed by the party lifestyle, alcohol, drugs, not sleeping, eating takeout for every meal. This summer I started to get really down on how I was treating myself so now I'm trying to get back into shape and treat my body right, we only get one! Don't get me wrong, i'll still be drinking a bit and partying, but I believe balance is important soo yeah! -I was believeing there must be a few others on here working on some sort of health/fitness related goal and it would be cool to hear them and see what progress people are making. I'm hoping to be able to run my 8 mile loop I was running two years ago by the end of october. Today was my second day running for a half hour each day. I ate a whole balanced breakfast -three egg, red pepper, onion, tomato and spinach omelet, lunch was a turkey melt and homemade smoothie. Also, Only two cigs in the past week | |

I dunno how old you are, but the sad truth is that after a certain point diet counts just as much as working out. I hate that, but I sure as hell can't deny it. I've been right there with ya -- the irony of the podasts was that I was so busy being chained to a desk making them, I gained a ton of weight and got really out of shape. Got so disgusted about a year ago that I got my fat ass out & started working out like a madman, changed my diet, lost 30 pounds, and am in the best shape I've been in for a long time. So "I'm not only the owner, I'm also a client." Heh! |

| Delila Vandommelen 14.09.2011 | I guess you've been lugging around your DB4 a lot |
| May Artman 14.09.2011 | pics from february, cba to update yet. still got a long way to go. |
| Delila Vandommelen 14.09.2011 | Hmpf. I'm as ectomorph as it gets : 6ft for 122 lbs. You could say I'm a white Kenyan runner considering my low heart rate. I've been almost 132 a couple times, but it never lasted. If I stuff my face for a week (and feel nauseous doing so), I *might* put on a pound or two. If I skip meals, I don't lose weight. It's been suggested to me that I do some working out (marathon clubbing sessions don't count, they actually TRIM) *and* eat more often and in smaller portions to work with my fast metabolism. Hoping to get a dozen pounds on or so but no plans :/ |
| Leann Zugay 14.09.2011 | Figured it out...This will be my goal...July 07 2012 http://toughmudder.com/ |
| Spencer Kilcoyne 14.09.2011 | Would be in, but need to sort out my knee first - 20 years of rugby in the pack means I could do with a replacement left lleg (over the last 5 years I tore a hip flexor, ruptured my ankle ligaments and have had a tight IT band for so long it's buggered the muscles around my knee - here's a lesson kids, when your knee hurts don't just hose it down in painkillers and keep playing for 2 years) |

| Leann Zugay 13.09.2011 | Nice steve, good looks! |
| Leeanna Ayla 13.09.2011 | Are you a ninja Steve? I got up to 180 lbs not to long ago. Been eating right and ride my bike and am down to 165 now. If I could get in the 150's I would be happy and lighter than I have been in 20 years. I quit smoking 16 years ago and don't drink so that's a non issue. |
| daniela klein 13.09.2011 | Here's a zillion workout mixes for ya: Podrunner Podrunner: Intervals Or you can look em up on iTunes podcasts. Good luck with your workouts! |
