  • Bacon, sausage, potatoes, peanut butter toast, smoothies, oatmeal, granola, pizza, tacos, etc. Whatever you like doesn't necessarily need to be a "breakfast" food.
  • Buffalo Chicken Pizza for us. Not hard to make and it tastes great, it can be easier too if you just buy a pre made crust. I put a couple tablespoons of ranch, toss some shredded chicken in buffalo wing sauce then put 8 ounces or so of mozzarella and into the oven for 15ish minutes.
  • I tried some tonight out of curiosity, meh. It's not terrible but it's a lot more work than a cup of black coffee.
  • I don't have any specific CI recipes but there's rarely a day that goes by that my #8 Griswold doesn't get used for something. This is one that I do on my grill fairly often though. http://www.traegergrills.com/teamtraeger/post/2013/06/07/Brats-in-a-Beer-Bath.aspx#.VKtIbSMo6BY
  • I found when I started that around 4.5 was a decent speed. Not too fast and not too slow.
  • Not sure on Runkeeper but I use MapMyRun with all 3 synced together. I record the run in MMR it then syncs it's calorie burn estimate to MFP then Fitbit will adjust the calorie burn through what it calculated. Quick example. MMR says I burned 600, Fitbit says it was only 400. It shows in the exercise log as MMR 600, Fitbit…
  • This, tap the top left corner, scroll down to Apps & Devices and scroll down again you'll see it.
  • Popcorn, you get a lot of it for the calories.
  • Get some good shoes and don't go too fast, I did and set myself back 2 weeks from bursitis. The program works well though, I ran my first 5k after 3 months and lost almost 40lbs in 6 months tracking calories and running as my only exercise.
  • Eat what you like, I have 2 eggs, a slice of thick cut bacon or 1 breakfast sausage patty. Or 1 egg, 1 mediumish potato cubed or slice of toast and butter. I mix those combinations up and have them for breakfast nearly every day. Paired with a cup of coffee or juice and you're around or well under 400 calories.
  • I use these because I hate and have never found any thaearbudsanytay in place. http://m.target.com/p/sony-around-the-ear-headphones-black-mdras200-blk/-/A-14495475
  • Have you been to a running or specialty shoe store to be measured/pronation checked? A proper pair of shoes can make a huge difference in healing time.
  • My wife has had success with Pact, you set your own goals and it connects with a variety of programs (MFP, Runkeeper, etc) to keep you honest. You determine how much you want to "bet" on yourself to be able to hit the goal. http://www.pactapp.com
  • It's difficult but sit down and plan out your meals for the week. Look on Allrecipes, Pinterest, etc for things that sound good and are easy. We do a ton of crockpot meals since they're easy and there's usually leftovers for lunch the next day. Side effect of doing this is you'll likely spend less at the grocery store too.
  • I did the same last June and ran my first 5k in the middle of September. I started by working to the fastest pace I could walk for 30 minutes then used C25K and followed the program, sometimes repeating weeks. I did however do it everyday 1 day the full time next day half or less, I'm now up to running at least 2 miles a…
  • This time last year I hadn't even started trying to get in shape. But since June I've lost 35lbs, dropped from a size 40 waist to 36 and gone from not being able to run for an 1/8 mile to running a 5k in 29 minutes. Feels pretty good.
  • Look through the course book and see who teaches strength and cardio classes, email them and let them know your concerns and see if they'll talk you through a basic routine.
