January 2013: I'm basically having to start completely over from my life-meltdown. I'm in college and having a hard time balancing everything. I restarted the couch to 5k in a more loose manner. I intend to get it done and find time or a way to do my normal routine or create a better crafted one.
Eating isn't great but hasn't been terrible.
Current focus and effort- Eating 3 meals a day. We eat salads with many meals now which is great. I'm putting an emphasis on having vegetables on the side of every meal.
-- "Cheat" days = --
May 7th, 2012 started strict paleo diet, no dairy.
June 7th- can now have dairy, but preferably fermented dairy.
October 2012- will be adding in white rice on occasion (fine for people who exercise plenty), and sweet potatoes (and sometimes regular potatoes). I am a very low energy person, so I need to see if that's part of my problem.
January 2012- I eat about a cup of rice a day to make sure I get my needed carbs, to prevent hormonal problems that low-carb can cause. Milk should be in moderation as it seems to lead to being gassy.
(January)- all my goals are screwed up and I'm throwing it out and starting again. First and foremost with a list of recipes and a strict budget because we're poor. Looking for the best ways to get nutrients and eat well on not much money.
I need to do lower back stretches regularly because I have an anterior pelvic tilt

Future goal-- Get stronger abs (my weak point). Do leg raises without getting crazy cramps. Stretch and fix that, and stretch to fix my pelvic tilt. Learn to do a pull-up, start by practicing body weight rows.
Completed the 28 Day Bootcamp dvd! (4/16/12)
May 2012 Jump rope record: 42 jumps
I HAVE COMPLETED THE COUCH TO 5K PROGRAM! (1/3/12)
(Look up the podcast for Robert Ullrey to download sound files and do what I did, to learn to jog!)
My first official 5k- Jan 14 2012, 142nd place out of 264, age 21, Time was 0:32:56.
My second 5k- April 29th 2012, age 22,
Time was 0:31:46

(General goal: gain some visible muscle, or lose some visible fat.)
Hello! I'm 22 (2012), and I joined this site along with my husband, whom is obese, because I want to get fit. I had never been fit in my life, and I had never bothered to do regular exercise. There was plenty of walking and going to the park each weekend, but other than that, nothing.
In March 2011 I decided to start exercising and paying attention to my health.
My inspiration for starting finally was, I was a bit fit once in high school, when I was taking weight training (with only dudes!) and we jogged and bench pressed and did all sorts of things. It felt good being able to walk up hill and jog more than a block.
I was fortunate and unfortunate enough to seem unable to gain much weight. This means I used to make terrible health decisions that made me feel like crap. I can eat a box of cookies in a heartbeat. I had a huge sugar addiction that is very hard to break. I'm slowly working through that.
So thin hasn't been healthy, and I have a long way to go with absolutely no motivation to even get out of bed.
Also have social anxiety disorder, which is often draining.

My Goals:
I want to lose fat and gain muscle, but not lose much weight. It seems like I'm currently at my weight's happy zone, which is in the 140's.
I wish to survive and grow old with better chances of not suffering poor health.
Goal is to bring regular exercise into my life and get buff. I would love to be a strong lady.
My Program:
No added sugar in the things I eat, since October 2011. I don't worry about the sugar at restaurants but at home I stay strict. Started eating paleo in May, but altered it to better on account of the experiences of trainers on paleo. (eat some carbs)
Food:
Trying to start a streak of eating 1 vegetable and 1 fruit every single day.
Standard: Avoid all soda, eat more vegetables and fruit, avoid fast food and out food as much as possible, meals made from fresh ingredients.
Exercise:
Right now: I'm jogging 3 times per week, for about 2.7 miles nonstop (or doing sprints). I lift weights every other day except Saturday, on the days that I don't jog.
Personal Information:
From Seattle since birth. Love it.
I am sleep deprived and stressed most of the time. Even though I have nothing that important to be stressed about. I sleep very soundly and oversleep too often- it's going to bed that is a problem. I'm not the best at staying consistent with exercise but I'm trying! Adding new healthier foods to my diet is hard.
I have social anxiety disorder so I don't like people. But I can tolerate them from a distance, and enjoy writing to people.
Other Information:
I am an atheist aspiring buddhist. I think it's important to keep in perspective, knowing that no one really knows what the truth is about the universe and if there is a purpose or a life after death.
Arrogance creates hatred. I think people can believe what they wish, but should remember that there is no way to know for sure. That keeps people from becoming too separate from each other. We're here for happiness, and being kind to one another- that's what's most important.
