Getting a jumpstart on new years. I have been on and off here for a few years. Starting new again. Not where I want to be bit not where I started either. Time for a reset. I am going to log everything this week without making any changes to my normal and then evaluate my nutrition and see what all I need to adjust. With…

Yes everything above. I also use some protein shakes mixed with almond milk and pb2. Tastes like a Reece’s

One of my new favorites is a stuffed avocado. You can find endless combinations. The latest one I tried was using morning star crumbles,cream cheese, sliced jalapeño, tomato, and topped with mozzarella.

I am planning to start with triathlon training in spring. I have a few running goals I am focusing on first. Particularly my first half marathon in March. I would like to hear about your experiences with getting started.

Hi I am recently vegetarian about 5 weeks now.

They are a little more affordable than Fitbit. I like that I can log my water straight from my tracker. I have seen them at wallgreens and online.

What are the top 3 on your workout playlist? Mine Thunderstruck Shoot to thrill Start me up

I use a tracker from striiv. It has a fun little game with it where real world steps translate into progress in game. I think it helped me keep going. Then I found MFP now all of you keep me pushing to new limits. Anyone who has not please add me.

Welcome I have added y'all to my friends.

I know what you mean. I like how I feel so much better after a run. Get the good endorphin rush. Also it is hard to think about much else as you are cruising along. It is my escape for some me time. When is the half you are planning for. I am going to be doing one in March in DC. Afterward I am planning for a sprint…

I hope you are doing well after the hurricane. I am sure it touched everyone in your area damage or not.

Welcome everyone. I am from a little dot on the map north of Waco. Lake Whitney.

Is this your first half. I am on week 2 of 20 getting ready for my first one. The best advice I have received so far is find a plan that works with your lifestyle. I run 3 days a week with long runs on Saturday. A plan that runs 4 days a week would be too demanding on my time and I would be less likely to complete it.

Inviting

I have been here for a short time going it alone. I have done ok so far but some community support would go a long way. Anyone please feel free to add me. Challenges are what makes life interesting. Overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.

I use daily burn for strength, and with my treadmill and stationary bike I use bit gym.

I was drinking up to 5 monster energy drinks a day for years. After a week in the hospital in January I never picked up another one again and shortly after gave up all soda.

Hi. Have you looked into a sit-stand desk? I also work in an office and I use one from varidesk . It has made a big difference in what used to be a sedentary environment.

Hello. I am relatively new here. I'm 39 years old from central Texas. I have recently turned my life around. I have lost 70 pounds since May and now am within reach of my GW of 185 (only 18 pounds to go). I have also recently converted to vegetarian about a month ago. I have been running in 5k's for a couple of months now…
