I did 10 minutes on the treadmill and I've done well with my eating. I was going to do another 10 minutes on the treadmill, but I'm not sure. My 8 and 10 year old nephews are here today and immediatly saw it and said "oh a treadmill!" And my mom told them it was strictly off limits. Kids .. with my almost 2 year old niece I'll have to put it under the bed.

I did 10K runner again today. I am on week 3 day 2. It was 2 runs of 1.5 min. each and 2 runs of 2.5 min. each. By the 2nd 2.5 min run, I was really feeling it. Thank God the last run was one of the 1.5 min. runs, and it did help that the song on my iPhone that came on was High Hopes by Panic! At the Disco. But at this rate, I will have to repeat week 3! I can try slowing down my jogging, but my perception at least is that I'm jogging very slowly already.
This walking and jogging is starting to tone up my abs though, which I'm quite happy about. __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: two roads diverged in a wood, and I - I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. --Robert Frost |

I've had 1,170 calories today. Kinda high on carbs and low on protein, but its just one of those days.
My doctor raised my lamictal. Idk if it will do anything to my appetite or not. I know lamictal is normally weight netrual but it can cause loss of appetite. __________________ Whatever at this point. Last edited by Mountaindewed; Jul 30, 2024 at 04:03 PM.. |

Cool song to finish on Blueberry!
I found Monday’s run tough too, it was back to intervals interspersed with walking but I felt very lethargic which may be connected with time of the month. It’s been warmer here too - I have no idea how you hot humid climate folk manage! Tomorrow’s is two 10 minute runs with a walk in between and I’m going to aim to get out nice and early, lots to do tomorrow. |

I guess maybe I should listen to my doctor when he says eating less and working out will help me lose weight. I'm down a few pounds. I've been using my treadmill a lot and sticking pretty good to around 1200 calories

I did 10K runner again this morning. Week 3 day 3. Ugh. I am finding it harder and harder, but I slowed down my pace (barely jogging now, just a little). Today it was 2 2 min. runs and 2 3 min runs with equal walking times in between. I had some frustration this morning with getting MapMyFitness to work, and had to download MapMyWalk on my phone (I like to see how far I walk & run). I walked the long way home b/c I still had some frustration over my Map program not working. Didn't realize until the end that I had covered 4 miles! When I walk after 10K runner I usually aim for a total of 3 miles.
After doing this program & walking consistently I have pretty nice legs now  And my stomach is starting to tone up and my upper arms too.I'm not really losing weight, and I don't need to lose weight, I'm a normal BMI, but I have been wanting to tone up rather than lose weight. __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: two roads diverged in a wood, and I - I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. --Robert Frost |

That’s great news about your legs toning up Blueberry- I bet your Pilates is helping with that too.
I did my 2x 10 minutes runs early yesterday morning while it was still cool, I was okay at the time, I’m definitely a morning runner. But afterwards I got really tired and had to take a nap, I couldn’t do the chores I needed to do. I have running group tonight and may give it a miss. We’ll see. |

@Discomboluated
Not looking forward to 2 10 min. runs when the max length I've done so far is 3 min. Don't know how you did it. How did your running group go? @Buffy01 I HATE when that happens! Weight fluctuations can by SO frustrating! I walked/jogged 4 miles today. Probably a bit too much for me, lucky I went early b/c the highs are creeping up out there, and humidity is AWFUL. It never really cools down much at night. Probably will not do 10K runner until Sunday or Monday. I will then be on week 4. __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, anorexia, panic disorder, ADHD Seroquel, Cymbalta, propanolol, buspirone, Trazodone, gabapentin, lamotrigine, hydroxyzine, I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: two roads diverged in a wood, and I - I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. --Robert Frost |
