start tracking! If nothing else, just knowing you are tracking everything makes you really think twice before you eat something! Coming off injury is hard, that is my task this year as well and has been very tough. Stick with it and make sure you increase your workouts slowly so you don't aggravate your back and have any…

Liquid calories are a challenge for everyone, I think. Half the battle is getting the right amount of calories, the other half in ensuring you are getting all the nutrients you need.

I highly recommend doing a slow start with running/walking build. The trick is to not increase your distance (weekly total) by more than 10% each week.
