    Hey guys.... I posted a thread but I would like to ask for your insight as well:

    I have found that I get hungry and need to eat every 2 - 3 hours (my stomach gets queasy).

    I am new to eating every couple hours which is causing me to over eat! I want to start eating 5 to 6 small "meals" throughout the day. I am a runner training for a half marathon in October and need some ideas on what to have in my small meals that have protien.

    I also find that I am eating junk calories (non protien) for my three main meals. If you have a good idea for lunch or dinner meals that don't take much preporation that would be helpful too.

    Thanks in advance everyone!!!

    Just completed:
    20 globe jumps
    10 split squat jumps
    3 sets of 21's
    2 sets of 15 swimmers presses
    100 more jumping jacks.

    I owe:
    10 split squat jumps
    40 zig-zag jumps
    50 jumping jacks
    400 crunches
    4.5 miles

    Will try for more later, but that wore me out, so no promises! And my legs are bothering me from all the leg work I've been doing in the past 2 days!

    Oh, and one of my friends wants to know if there is room on our September team for her! Are we all full yet? Or is there space for one more??

    Water in and under calorie goal.

    I did the sets of 21's and the swimmer's presses, along with the 55 crunches and for some reason I did 20 modified windshield wipers and 3 sets of leg lifts. And I got in an extra 2 miles on the stationary bike.

    Tomorrow will be spent cleaning the yard and making sure all the possible projectiles are put into the shed, get groceries, and do laundry just in case that hurricane hits!
