Agree. In the past, I would view the heavy meal day as a cheat meal and for some reason it derailed all of my efforts. Turned into another cheat day and so on.

I suffered with PF for about a year. You need to be religious about calf stretching, icing, massaging and breaking up the tissue. Also, buy the most supportive shoes you can find to walk in.

Definitely need to start some strength. Upper body especially. Going to check out some sites to start with simple hand weights. MFP…
