  • If you are working out that much and gaining that much weight you are eating more than you think you are. Are you weighing and tracking your food? Insuring you are selecting correct entries?
  • "They" aren't setting anyone up for failure, no one is making them eat the cookie. It is our individual choice what to buy and what to eat, I get them from time to time. Sometimes I eat the whole cookie in a sitting, sometimes I split it up and enjoy it over a few days.
  • Weight loss is not linear. There will be weeks you lose more, weeks you lose less and weeks you don't lose at all. Especially with females, the normal hormonal weigh fluctuations will cause the scale to bounce around throughout the month.
  • I really enjoy Street Parking, its crossfit type workouts. They have daily WODs and there are a ton of extra programs you can add or do instead
  • Have you been fitted for shoes and/or inserts at an actual running store?
  • I make protein pudding to eat in the evening. One bottle of Premier protein powder and 3 TBS of any sugar free jello pudding, I normally do the cheesecake one
  • One of my favorite easy to go lunches is elk burger taco meat, we grind it ourselves so there is no added fat. Then I add in cottage cheese and have a few protein chips with it.
  • Have you calculated what you should be eating? Are you tracking your food, weighing it?
  • For me, fueling the day before a long run is the most important. During the run I will have a gel after an hour, or 45minutes if I feel like I'm dragging some. I use salt tabs on hot days
  • That might work for you, but some people are very light sleepers and some are very loud snorers. There is absolutely no way I can ignore it and go back to sleep. Mine will wake me up in another room with his snoring.
  • I meal prep on Sundays, I make enough lunches for the week. Normally its something really easy. This week it was smoked pulled chicken I got premade at city market and uncle bens steamed rice bags. Once package of chicken and one package of rice will make 3-4 lunches. They're around 300 calories and 35g of protein (those…
  • I love the Vega protein and greens, it mixes up well and tastes good.
  • Is this a trainer you have met and worked with in person, or all online?
  • I wake up a lot when my blood sugar gets low, once I eat I can typically go back to sleep. Maybe try planning a healthy snack for the middle of the night, or something right before bed.
  • I just pick a good chocolate bar or snack and make it fit into my calories. If I want a hersheys bar I have one, down 35 pounds so far
  • High protein works for a lot of people, just because it doesn't work for you doesn't mean its not a good option for someone else.
  • I run on my lunch breaks, I started with C25K a year ago and just finished my second half marathon, I typically run 3-4 miles at lunch 3 days a week
  • Thankfully I only felt bad for a day or two, diff breathing/fatigue, congestion. Within 4 days I felt ok to start walking and within a week I was back to running, slower and less miles but working on building back up.
  • I run 3-4 days a week, normally 2-3 shorter 3-4 miles runs on my lunch break during the week and one long run on the weekends. Last Sunday I did 10 miles. Im debating doing a half marathon at the end of the month, I have done several others but haven't decided for sure if Im going to do this one.
  • How tall are you and what do you weigh? How much have you gained, and in what amount of time? You can gain inches with gaining muscle! How are your workouts feeling?
  • You are eating far too few calories, at 238 with it set to sedentary you should still be eating around 1700 a day. 1200-1400 isnt even enough to maintain your everyday activities, add all the exercise you are doing without eating back those calories and you are way under on calories.
  • For me personally if I am feeling hungry in the evening I have a protein drink, low sugar, sweet taste, lots of protein and relatively low calories at 160. It works to fill me up and keep me from eating other things
  • Im up at 4:30-4:45, an hour workout, do farm chores and shower before my husband leaves for work. Then I get my son up fed and dressed and off to work and school, I try and go to bed by 9:30 but most of the time its 10:00
  • I've started getting up at 4:30 several days a workout several days a week, it was a struggle the first few times but now that I've been at it for a while its not bad. I feel so much better when I get up and get moving.
  • Everyone is different, if you don't enjoy it don't do it. For me, I cant run inside unless I absolutely have to, I run outside in the heat and snow. My mind gets the best of me and I get bored, this year I started listening to podcasts and found them a huge help. I get so wrapped up in a story that the time flies by. Mid…
  • I did the C25K and now am on the Zenlab 13.1 trainer and up to 10 miles for my long runs, I've had PF for years. One of the best things you can do it go get fitted for the right shoes at a running store, they can look at your feet, watch you run on the treadmill and recommend the right shoes for your build and stride.
  • I think it has more to do with people getting lazy and preferring to stay inside where its nice and cool versus being outside and more active.
  • I listen to podcasts or books on tape while I run, it keeps my mind busy and really helps on the longer runs.
  • Yea, I cancelled then got charged the next month. I even had a message from their customer service saying my membership was cancelled and now in "free" mode. But I got charged the following month I was told I need to cancel it through the App on ituned and they cant aka wont refund me the money
  • That's awesome of you to offer to help. I'm currently a volunteer firefighter/ EMT with a local department, I spent several seasons working on a federal wildland fire crew. After quitting that the desk job really caught up with me, slowly working on getting back into the shape I was then. I completed the CPAT with a career…
