  • I went jogging with my mom sometimes when I was like 7 and other times my brother and i would ride our bikes or rollerblade along side her if she was going on a longer run. I also have a friend who runs marathons and her daughter has been doing 5k's with her since she was itty bitty! I think it'll be fine as long as you…
  • WOW! thanks for your feedback! Some other things you all should know, after reading the replies: I run half marathons, so the exercise will actually fit with my training. I've been running with the dogs at the shelter and that is where i fell in love with this guy. I've run with him quite a few times and his good behavior…
  • This just made my day! You look beautiful and fit! People are always going to try to bring you down whether you're skinny, fat, long-haired, short-haired, no-haired, dressed-up, dressed-down, no matter what. Keep doing what makes YOU happy and tell the world where they can stick their negative comments :)
  • yes. yes yes yes. you are in no way alone.
  • they are low calorie, but not if you eat the whole bag lol. I know exactly what you mean! i can never buy anything munchy like rice cakes or chips or anything. i go through the bag in like 2 days. horrible.
  • yes, you will lose weight. http://www.cnn.com/2010/HEALTH/11/08/twinkie.diet.professor/index.html ^^^^^proof^^^^^
  • hahaa 37....i'm gonna use that on my boyfriend. gotta keep it fresh youknowwhati'msayinnn
  • if i really need some motivation, rage against the machine always pulls me through. normally i'm a weezer girl :)
  • apple with pb is always yummy
  • I often get egg beaters (i prefer southwestern style) and put them in a tupperware container and just microwave them. Sprinkle a little cheese and/or salsa on top. yum!
  • The thing about P90X is that it wasn't technically made for weight loss, so no, you probably don't need to eat all 1800 cals. if you have a heart rate monitor that would be ideal because you could find exactly how many cals you burn in a workout and just plug them in here. if not, i would try and find an exercise on here…
  • INSANITY. SHAUN T.
  • oooh whats the eat to live plan?
  • I just ate a tuna steak from a pouch!! It's perfect for college kids who don't have time or are too lazy to cook. I throw it on a salad with some vinaigrette and it's like I cooked or something! lol

  • Well to me it sounds like one of two things (both of which I have dealt with) 1) if you run on your toes it is probably your calf cramping. however, it sounds more like option 2 to me. 2) compartment syndrome. Basically, when your muscles swell up from exercise + the repetitive motion of running means the blood can't get…
  • I used to have that SAME problem when I ran cross country in high school. I can't tell you what caused it, but it did eventually go away. There is hope! Now I'm not saying this had anything to do with my issue, but when I got into college I stopped eating meat and haven't had the issue since. That's really the only…
  • That's amazing that you are getting married during a half! I'm currently training for the Illinois (1/2) Marathon, but have had the flu all week so that blows. And I'm doing a half in May in Salt Lake City!
  • Thought I would pop in and see how everyone's "day after" went! Back in the day I would try to restrict and make up for the day before, which would eventually lead to another binge...DUH...but I decided to only look at the deficit I create each day from here on out. So yesterday I had a 423 calorie deficit...trying to keep…
  • SAME THING JUST HAPPENED TO ME! i just blew it in a major way. so i'm totes with ya girl. tomorrow (well it's 3 am here, so today) is a perfect day to start anew
  • April 30th: Illinois Marathon...I'm doing the iChallenge half-marathon which is a 5k on friday night and the half on saturday. May 30th: State Capitol Half Marathon, Salt Lake City, UT Sep 11th:Chicago Half (maybe)
  • You'll love it. Trust me.
  • I did it this past year. SO. MUCH. FUN. even if you aren't a runner, you'll love it. WEAR COSTUMES!
  • any sort of plyometric move will be great for you, almost like a hill workout, because you'll have to do intervals. Here's a list of some random things you can do. Do 30 seconds of each then take a 30 second break. Repeat however many times you feel you can. Jump Knee Tuck: Start with knees slightly bent and jump, bringing…
  • I would have thought this too, but at first I didn't have any side effects, and then around 6 months, all of a sudden I started gaining weight rapidly and being bloated ALL the time. Now I know the weight gain isn't entirely due the ring, but I think it has played a large part in it, and i think it's the main reason I…
  • I've heard that jumping around with bc is bad, too. That's why I have given this so long. my situation was basically the opposite of yours. At first I was fine, but slowly i've noticed more weight gain and the bloating has gotten more frequent and just plain painful. So maybe going off of it, I wont gain ten lbs but lose…
  • Ok good, I'm not crazy! I poop regularly, so I don't think it's intestinal (Too much info? Nah, we're talking about birth control lol). I've tried everything, cleanses, water pills, and I'm just always bloated. I had gone to the doctor and gotten bloodwork taken and everything was normal (thyroid, etc) and he suggested…
  • ahahaha 12 hours exactly, actually. For me anyway. Never fails lol. I have the same issue as the OP so every once in a while I just take them if I noticed I haven't cleared my system in a while. Oooh running before you eat anything helps too!
  • i buy my own dressing and sneak it in :)
  • If you are up to 6 miles fairly regularly, you can definitely do a half marathon in a couple of months! I would start taking fish oil supplements if it's a joint issue with your knee. Those work amazingly well. I have aches and pains when I run distance too, so taking a few ibuprofen an hour or so before you go out will…
