Good advice. Thanks! @mimi4janda Give it a shot. I was scared, too. And yeah, I didn't run the whole time, but nothing bad happened when I took a break in the middle of the five minutes. :P I'm gonna work on Week 4 until I can run the whole five. Thanks, @NancyN795!

Week 4 Day 1... did not run the duration of either 5 min interval. :( How do you decide if/when to repeat a day?

All of the above illustrates my point. Every single comment was hung up on the term. My question was actually about the calorie limit. That's the "hate" I see. I don't know what other term to use, and I even explained what I meant by clean eating. (Bold added after the fact to emphasize the difference between canned tuna…

You're awesome!! Keep at it! There's no such thing as ONLY. :) You lost! That's great!!

Open diary here as well. Just FYI, if someone's diary is actually open, you can see their logs withoit friending them. :)

Yes. This.

I schedule my runs/walks at sundown. It's still hot, but it's cooling down by then.

Seconded. What's the point in drinking it at all? If you like the taste or the energy boost, go for it :) I love my sugar free Rockstar Punched Zero.

I love PF. I was there when I lost my first 75 pounds. I even worked there for 3 years, got my PT certification when I was working there, and was promoted to fitness instructor. PF gets a lot of hate on here. Before anybody starts bashing: Yes, you're allowed to deadlift. No, there's probably not a squat rack. Yes, they…

Not a fruit, but consider adding some protein powder. And spinach :) it will turn your smoothie green, but if you remove the stems, you won't even taste it

My kids are teenagers. We almost never eat the same things. I cook most of their meals (they also snack A LOT) and sit down at the table with them with my own food. They get bored with my meals, 'cause I eat the same things over and over. They have their own shelf in the cupboard with their own snacks. It's almost like a…

My diary's open, if you want more ideas... (my goals - 153 g protein, 68 g carbs before additional exercise calories) Cottage cheese, tuna, Greek yogurt, eggs, protein powder are all your friends. To keep my carbs low, I limit myself to one piece of fruit max per day, maybe none. Cauliflower or zoodles for pasta. Lettuce…

Just watched it this week. Loved it!

Decrease your calories. It's not impossible to recomp (build muscle and lose fat simultaneously), but it can be difficult. Continue to lift heavy, but eat at maintenance or a slight deficit. If you're more concerned about losing fat than maintaining muscle mass, eat at a 500 - 1000 calorie per day deficit (depending on…

14 - 21 a week, right? Not per day... If you have MapMyFitness or a Fitbit, you can measure that way and track accordingly.

It all depends on personal preference. I eat high protein, low-ish carb. What's most important is that it's sustainable for YOU. Carbs make me hungry, so most of my carbs come from veggies. Many people will tell you they wouldn't be able to (or just choose not to) cut out sweets or chips. Calorie deficit dictates weight…

My face. It's a very obvious difference just from May 'til today.

I just eat them plain. :)

Actually RUNNING a whole 5k! Pull ups!

Oh yeah, I also like Stong and American Grit. They're off season right now, but you can find them online.
