Albeit at a 3.8 mph pace. But that's okay. I've only jogged outside once though (on a trail by my house). The rest of the time I've been on a treadmill. To be honest, I'm scared to death to run "in the real world" (on the roads). I'm so self-concsious. Did you feel that way when you started running/jogging? Do you have any tips for me to overcome this feeling?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6137646469767562765.post-66380686963899137682012-01-25T08:58:37.645-05:002012-01-25T08:58:37.645-05:00I do capris and compression socks all the time!

...Who are the Megans? Should I know that answer? <br /><br />Anyway, I often run in compression sleeves and tights or compression sleeves and regular running pants. It has to be very cold for me to whip out my running tights. I do, though, have 2 pairs (one that is a little big and one that is a little too small). Way to be creative. <br /><br />I was completely planing on a run on Sunday and or Monday but at one point the winds were 25 mph and had gusts up to 50 - NO THANK YOU!<br /><br />So glad you are signed up for a spring half! Woot woot!!! Cool medal huh? Is that your way of trying to twist my arm? I'm a sucker for medals - ha!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15432550406970940247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6137646469767562765.post-572989903681387832012-01-24T19:52:18.094-05:002012-01-24T19:52:18.094-05:00Wow girl!

It's time to make time for me and start the journey to change. I've always been very active and somewhat fit but this challenge has just kicked my butt!!! I feel so tired and weak after exercise. I have never has such a hard time loosing weight. Did you feel like this at the beginning of your journey?

I have been wanting to count calories (my portion guesswork just isn't doing enough)more often. But I cook almost every meal myself. How do you count calories for homemade meals? I have tried using something like myfitnesspal.com, but I just never know if their "homemade" would have the same calories as my homemade.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00992265744485772093noreply@blogger.com
