Awesome job!

Again, another really obvious fact I care nothing about.

Feel free to add me, my diary is open and I log every day.

You got popsicles? We got water at Reeds :(

I don't eat them normally. I use them on my homemade egg sandwiches and add lean ham to the mix. It's preference though, it cuts calories for me and I like the ham more than the yolks. I do eat them sunny side at restaurants unless I can see them prepared. (Saw at hotel restaurant where the yolks go that people don't…

A bit of both here. I do eat out occasionally so I do need some questimates. I do try to break it down to it's parts unless there is a known good value in MFP. In class we have been through the '4 oz is as big as a deck of cards' discussion so I should be pretty close. When I'm home, I do measure most everything.

Good luck!

I used to feel uncomfortable at the gym or at running events until I just did it. Yes, there are more athletic people and try as I might, I'll never get close to a 14:00 5k. I am faster than I was though. Keep it about you, focus on your effort, and take pride that you are doing all the footwork that will make the changes…

No, pitiful was the person on the couch while you were finishing :)

It sounded like fun :)

Good luck!

Great job!

Awesome!

Grand Rapids too... haven't seen any group outings but doesn't mean that it doesn't happen.

Grand Rapids

Are you running Reeds on June 30?

I had a similar experience even though I run predominately on a treadmill indoors. After the shoes, I needed to play with the incline / speed combination until I had a good workout but not too much on the knees. You can feel the spot where it's most workable and build your endurance from there. I was doing 1 - 2min run,…

I've only used the Nutrilite shakes. The chocolate whey is pretty good.

Riverbank 5k race day

Awesome job!

Great job! I ran Diemer on Saturday, but was very hot. Getting ready for Reeds now.

As the first person that responded said, there are studies that show these can make you hungry. Other than that, I still drink it occasionally. I think it's more about the amount and frequency than anything else. Predominately, I drink water but don't avoid caffiene like it's evil, but I don't drink it all day long anymore…

Amazing job!

Depending on the style of restaurant, you can put together a very healthy meal. Just make sure to stay away from the calorie dense foods and get a good variety of the low cal (within your limit) foods. I used to fear the buffet in Vegas, but now, it's the one of the favorites since we can shape our meal without breaking…

290 was the shocker.

I'm running the 5k. Will be interesting since it's been getting warmer.

June 9

Awesome!

I'd get it.

Great job!
