You need to find out your TDEE... then eat between your BMR and your TDEE that simple really

For me the treadmill kills me!! i hate it it feels like it takes 10x longer. I only run on the treadmill when i have to.

Coffees are my weakness..I make them fit in my cals for the day. But i do what I can to skinny them up. Med iced coffee from MCD is 190 during happy hour that 1.06 all together...they are weakness when i pick up my nephew an daughter

Lets see... Had a teacher named Anita D*ck her daughters name was Carry... poor family Went to school with a Chelsie Silver Spoon Went to School with a Toosdae (tuesday) know of a lady who named her daughters Circe and Phaydra (greek names) I actually kinda like Circe

I'm willing to bet thats pronounced Ray...my mom's maiden name is Rhea and its pronounced ray

This reminded me i have a unopened kettlebell dvd I ordered this summer and never started bc I was training for a 1/2! Mama wants kettlebells for christmas!

I'm a grouchy tired straving person at 1200...I'm 5'2 and down to 148...eating at 1850

There is a formula somwhere that compared to hrms is fairly accurate...

My problem is munching on my kids food! Thats why Im stalled lately

WoW that was informative for me :) I have a spibelt....has a zippper but I love it... holds my huge phone that doesn't have athletic accessories yet. Its stretchy.. also doesn't move when i'm running..i'd have thrown the thing on the road long ago if it rode up on me

I don't trust anything endorsed by "dr" oz

run intervals, run walk, run walk. Try doing the c25k program. Look at getting an exercise dvd the more you do or the harder you work the more you will burn

I feel SOOOOOO guilty if I go one day without some kind of a workout...and if i don't get atleast runs in in a week I'm hating on myself. Which is kinda not a bad thing. But i'm also I think a lil too obsessive with the calories.

i've had two 9lbers 18 months apart...im 24 I'd kill for your stomach an i'm at my pre-baby weight

Had mine out a year and a half ago, first six months anything greasy or high fat, bleck! Now nothing. Bothers me. For my stepmom she had about a year of no lettuce/cabbage and other veggies but was fine after that.

All I've got is Nov 17 turkey trot ..its a 10 mile race. Then just maintain at hopefully 5-6 miles maxes for winter until the "on" season pics up again

It can be just depends on the person. I've been on it since May and have been still losing.

get fitted for some quality tennis shoes and look at C25K and if it goes to fast for you modify it down to wear you need it

I'm doing it for the second time. I'm on level 1 day 6 I think. I started it in Dec of last year when I first started this journey. Then I did Ripped in 30 then alternated them for awhile then just ran for a while (was training for a half) Decided to start them over. Good Luck!!

Thats really cool...do you guys have a like fb page or something? i have some military friends that are not MFP that would prolly be interested.

Hmm i have been using endomondo since about june and my thing is for every mile its about 100 cal. Thats a really close estimate. A mine usually is pretty close to this.

These sound so good...might order some tomorrow!

Google couch 2 5k

Thanks everyone this helps a lot. Now if we can just find a sitter and I can choke down my nerves/intimidation!

Well, I'm feeling very not optimistic for running the whole thing an lots of ppl have suggested doing run/walk intervals. My main goal is to just finish. My next goal is to run the whole thing.

I understand that. My big goal is to get ride of this extra roll from my csection getting closer.

Mine's continously gotten better and I have 2 creases because I've had 2 csections so I have a crease where you do and one lower. My only suggestion is keep at it! You've done great this far.

mines technically last night. I ran the fast 6 miles I've ever ran..also the best interval times too..

Thanks everyone. my best run mileage wise is 9 miles. I run at least 10 miles a week total but generally more like 15-20 miles a week. I just wondered too because I'm still pretty slow. averaging 12-13 min miles.

Happens to me too. However everyone in my running group says it gets better the longer you have been running.
