Hello! I'm training for a half marathon and have gained almost 10lbs! My race is April 1st and I'd like to lose at least 5lbs so I won't feel so sluggish, and also to look better in my running photos! :)

    Ah lord, I"m right there with you. I started resistance training and half-marathon training at about the same time... and I've been struggling with about 5 extra pounds and the munchies all. the. time... I could probably stand to lose about 10 pounds though... which definitely isn't happening by race-day. My race is March 26th... And I"m considering doing another one in late April. I'm sure there are halfs all over the place, but what race are you running? I'm doing one in Maryland. :)
