MFP goals: I'm a new runner...I've been at it for about 2 months now. My goal is to keep up my running (I'm going to run a half marathon in September 2017 for my 30th birthday present to myself) and fuel my body with the right foods. Weight is just a number, and while the BMI chart says I'm not a normal weight, I eat a mostly clean, vegetarian diet and I'm active. I'm all about being healthy and feeling good. The scale can say whatever, I feel great! I want to keep it that way.
