Outstanding!! Congratulations, CHCB.

Are you stretching after every run? I do a little light excercise before working out and running. Jumping jacks, squat bends, bouncing on my toes, trunk twisters (not over extending), fire engines, etc. Some really light stretching after that and then I work out for 30 - 45 minutes ... a little mor...

Welcome to the site. Congratulations on your tremendous weight loss. I am also a fellow Michigander.

I'm pretty fucking excited about my level...

Welcome, Ranger.

Congrats, young Ranger!!

Only if you live North of Kentucky.....

Had to pull my belt a little tighter this morning and my kids made a comment about my stomach looking "not as big as it usually does". Must be doing something right.

I'll try to stick to the off days... I guess I'm a little discouraged by my minimal weight loss. I expected more after 5 weeks of a shitty diet and running / lifting. I have to remind myself that muscle weighs more than fat and that I am working at a 'healthy' pace.
