Why do you think macro splits don't matter? The nutrients in your food matter! Weigh your food, track your macros....I have been doing this for 2 weeks and I have lost 7 lbs. I have not worked out one bit. I don't pretend to be an expert, but just eating in a calorie deficit will not make you lose weight long term.

When my kids were young there were GO foods, WOAH foods, and STOP foods (green light, yellow light, red light) and we talked about the differences. You could have as much GO foods as you wanted, a little WAOH foods, & very little or no STOP foods & it worked well. Now my 12 year old is in competitive sports & is starting…

Fitbit rocks!

I am in south central texas. I am 39 & would like to lose 20 lbs. I would love to join.

I have been using Run Keeper for years & love it. Also love fitbit flex.....

My grip is awful......I wish I could improve it faster.

I am glad to know I am normal!

I am petrified to change my calorie goal.....I keep reading that I am not eating enough but it's set at 1300 which I thought was good.

My kids are super busy too but no matter what we eat dinner at home. The night we are the latest we have a crockpot meal. On the weekends I put it together in a gallon freezer bag then write the instructions on the bag. If you google crockpot freezer meals you can get great recipes. Then we usually have leftovers one…

I have fallen, I can do them but still very scared & SLOW!

I love this! Sometimes when I am feeling down I remember that I am willing to TRY to do more than most people--especially at 5:15 am in the morning! Good job!

I love Advocare meal replacement shakes. Chocolate mocha is my favorite!

Anything dealing with grip strength, kipping pull ups & double unders!

Our warmup was a sprint up the hill & down in front of our house then lunges for about 50 meters. Workout: 50 jump ropes 1 front squat (I had 55 lbs-my husbands was heavier) 100 jump ropes 2 front squat 150 jump rope 3 front squat 200 jump rope 4 front squat 150 jump rope 3 front squat 100 jump rope 2 front squat 50 jump…

My husband & I work out 3 days a week in our garage with a private coach. I love it......and my kids are still sleeping in their beds while we work out.

I run 3 or 4 times a week & notice a difference on days when I wear heels to work.....my legs/feet feel very different. For races, carry Kleenex.....nervous stomach plus running has put me using the various port a potties at races. Sometimes there is no toilet paper. I love running! Great thread!

5'5" and right now around 148.....want to be 138 or so. Love the motivation!

I am 38 but feel 21! I would love new friends!!

I need to lose about 10 lbs......I would love some support & motivation!

It's been 40 degrees in Texas & I am a wimp.....no outside running for me!! You guys are awesome!! Of course, I love to run in 90+ degree weather!!

Maybe eat more protein especially for breakfast.....I would pass out if all I had was coffee. Try an egg or some lean meat. I think you are taking in a lot of empty calories.

If you are flat footed why do you need arch supports? I would think I person who has no arch but wears a shoe with an arch would be putting pressure on their foot & forcing it up when it didn't need to do that. IMO, arch supports are for people who have high arches. But of course, I am not an expert.

We have a family owned shoe store in our small town. The owner is a runner and knows about most running shoes. Anyway, I had bought several pairs of shoes from him and loved them. I decided one time to get a "good deal" so I went to a chain discount store & bought the same shoe (I thought) but cheaper. I wore them for a…

There is a gluten free oatmeal from Bob's Red Mill. I get it at the health food store. It is good.

I run on the street with traffic so I don't listen to music but I do my best goal setting & planning when I am running!!

I have been doing Intermittent Fasting and like it!! I eat all my calories from noon to 8 pm. I don't know if I have lost weight but I feel so much better.

Favorite: running Least Fav: toss up between box jumps & wall climbs

Love Ben & Jerry's peach cobbler!!
