    Hi Been on MFP seriously for about 3 months - lost about 20 so far. Running my first 5K this weekend.
    I eat over 2000 calories every day and try to net about 1700-1900.
    I eat Pizza, Burgers, Donuts, Ice Cream, and I eat broccoli, fish, and strawberries too!

    Hi! I like to run. Been running for about 2 years. About to start training for 10k under 45 min after I finish my "deload" after few weeks. Also doing some calisthenics. I do eat 2700 cals now on maintenance without exercises. I ate ****LOADS of crap tho. And yes, I love protein bars. :/

    Sounds like me! I love food and I sometimes love running! I am thinking about training for my first half next year so I would love to hear about your experiences with that.

    Hi! I'm a runner, ran my first half marathon in september. I'm doing a 30k in march, a half in may and maybe a full in october!!

    I lost over 50 pounds without running and been on maintenance for almost a year now. I'm still trying to figure out how tu fuel my running without gaining weight. Work in progress!!

    Add me if you like :)

    Sorry, I don't run other than like twice a week for a whole mile on the treadmill, and I'd have to work out even more than I already do to eat 2000 calories a day, most I ever eat is like 17-1800 and net about 12-1300. Guess we can't be friends (

    Training for a Tough Mudder. Running (again), lifting and eating anywhere from 1950(cut) to 3200(bulk). Warning: I eat strange stuff, nothing is sacred.

    Feel free to add me.

    I'm a newbie runner but mainly focus on lifting right now. I EAT but it varies on day to day. Yes there are protein bars on my diary but that is because I'm on the go a lot!! Feel free to add me. My 1st half marathon is in May and I'm always looking for people that can give me support!
