Hi! I am a new mommy to a daughter born in September. Before I got pregnant, I ran on my treadmill every day for about 6 months. When I got pregnant though, I had terrible morning sickness, which would not allow me to work out at all. So now, I am back on that horse and I feel GREAT! I love running again, and it helps me deal with life stresses in tremendous ways. Last night I ran 3 miles without stopping...granted it was at a snails pace, but hey...it's an improvement from the day before. I love seeing progress, if not on the scale then at least in the way that I feel.
Anyway...enough about me. I am looking forward to being inspired by all of you lovely ladies!
welcome! glad to have you. I am pamala trying to lose another 30-40 lbs. I hate running, but plan on getting on the treadmill this year and perhaps first goal running a mile. I know i can do it, i just refuse lol. Good for you for getting back into gear, that's the kind of inspiration we need over here!
Yay!!! Another runner!! Welcome! I have just really gotten more serious about my running and have started training for a half marathon so I'm really excited to have you around. I am Teresa, one of the co-hosts here. I hope we can be a support to you and I hope you like it here!

“I think that the best thing we can do for our children is to allow them to do things for themselves, allow them to be strong, allow them to experience life on their own terms, allow them to take the subway...let them be better people, let them believe more in themselves.”
“Motherhood is a choice you make everyday, to put someone else's happiness and well-being ahead of your own, to teach the hard lessons, to do the right thing even when you're not sure what the right thing is...and to forgive yourself, over and over again, for doing everything wrong.”
Hi and welcome! I just joined the board yesterday and I think 1 mile would be pushing it for me right now! So you are doing great! I look forward to getting to know you!
Welcome and congrats on your daughter! You will love it here...we have fantastic members & two kick ***** hosts!! That's great about running and you'll only continue to get stronger! I cant wait until I get back into running myself
I'm Ana, looking to lose another 20 somewhat pounds. It's funny that you should say that morning sickness prevented you from continuing because I think that's what killed my motivation to keep working out while pregnant. I had even bought 2 pregnancy workout videos.. but then the morning sickness hit me at around 8wks and didnt' stop until 8months. With the constant visit to the ER for fluids and medication to keep my daughter inside.. I became very unfit... and then of coarse I wanted another baby.. so as soon as I finished BFing my daughter I got pregnant with my son.. and yes.. once again.. morning sickness for the first 6months... so yeah.. not such a good experience.. anyway.. enough chit chat... I started at about 170lbs.. and am down to 152 since I joined this group of wonderful ladies.
Hope you like it here and hope that we can provide each other support.
