I did 30 minutes on the treadmill at an incline of 7 today. I’ve gained quite a bit of weight. I’ve been avoiding looking at the scale the past few weeks because I know I’ve gained because I’m aware that I have been binge eating and eating a lot of unhealthy food to cope with anxiety and boredom. But I finally made myself step on it today and I’m not thrilled with the number.
I’m gonna work on it though __________________ “All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.” -St. Francis of Assisi

@Blue_Bird
I'm sorry about your weight gain. It's awesome that you worked out on the treadmill with an incline. I definitely don't get an incline here, since I don't have a treadmill and the land is flat, flat, flat. I rested yesterday, and did my running program today. I had a 5 min. warmup walk, 30 min run, 5 min walk, 15 min run, 5 min cooldown walk. I finished nice and strong on the last 5 min  So I ran 45 min total. I didn't think I'd go this far in the 10K program, but now I'm curious to see how close I can get to the finish. I'm not that far away, and now I'm of the mindset I ran 45 min, what's 15 min more? Granted, I didn't run it continuosly, but there was only 1 break between the 2 intervals. I never thought I would be at this point when I was struggling to run 1 min intervals at the beginning of the program!

That's awesome great job! I wish I could run. There's nowhere nice to run around here where I live, I live in a very urban area. I suppose I could run on the treadmill but I have a fear of running on the treadmill because I'm afraid I'd go flying off or fall off. lol So I just stick to walking fast __________________ “All the darkness in the world cannot extinguish the light of a single candle.” -St. Francis of Assisi

I’m sure you can do the full program blueberry, as long as you get the pacing right you’ll be fine.
No running for me, I’ve been unwell with migraines and the aftermath, I’ve also weirdly got achy hips which may be connected. Got a good number of walking steps in today just going here and there on errands. |

Walking & stretching are definitely good for you
I repeated yesterday's run today so it was another 45 min total running broken up into a 30 min run, short walk, 15 min run. First day of fall, and the weather is still miserable. I cannot wait to run in cooler weather! It was 78F and 80% humidity when I went out this morning. I'm tired of summer! __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, There's a crack in everything.

I got some mini cucumbers and nutty oat wheat bread today among other things. I ate 2 Fiber One donuts around midnight and they gave me the worst gas and cramps. And they tasted like gummy or maybe mochi donuts. Today I'm at 990 calories. I'm really tired and not very hungry again. My doctor claims its not my new shot. But I think it is.

I still haven't eaten anything else. I'm really tired and eating feels like a chore today.

I didn't eat any Fiber One donuts today. So my stomach is ok. I've had some oat wheat bread with maple butter, a banana, and some pumpkim spice coffee. I'm still at a 7 pound weight loss for this month which is pretty good.

I did the 10K runner program again today. Lately it's been keeping my total run times at 45 min but decreasing the time between intervals so I had the 5 min warmup & cooldown walks, 30 min run, 2 min walk, 15 min run. I really didn't think I'd make it this morning; I was very tired because I had to take an extra trazodone to fall asleep last night, and if I take extra trazodone, I wake up feeling like I'm hungover. Once I got started with the warmup walk, I started feeling better and figured I'd see just how far I could get with the run, and after the first 5 min. it wasn't so bad, so I kept jogging. I have to say I am proud of myself getting to this point in the program, I never thought I'd make it this far. If I can make it 2 more weeks, it will have me running 10K
Well, close to 10K, I am slow and it takes me more than 30 min to jog 5K.
