My go to breakfast for a long time has been egg white muffins. I use the over sized muffin pans. 1 bag of spinach, 1 bell pepper, 1/2 package of ready cooked turkey bacon, 1 package green onion. Chop all of that up and add salt/pepper and seasoning. Divide it into 12 muffin cups. Fill it 3/4 full with egg white and…

There is a FANTASTIC recipe that I've used in the past (and I'd have to look for it if anyone is interested) for Turkey and Kale stuffed Acorn Squash. It has Fennel seeds that make the ground turkey taste like sausage. http://blogs.babble.com/family-kitchen/2011/09/13/stuffed-acorn-squash-2/ I also use it in egg white…

Since I'm only counting treadmill/jogging miles I'm down for 2 today... Not such a productive day for running...

I want to take back control of my life. I let it get away from me, and so did my weight. I want to be out of the category that puts me at high risk for heart disease because I carry my weight in my mid-section. I want to be healthy.

I'm in too!! I'm going to try and shoot for 100 miles of jogging outside and/or treadmill. Everyday walking won't count :happy:

I saw some yesterday at my generic grocery store in the spices and extracts section. You'd be surprised!!

For sure look into the C25k running program. I just finished week 2. I usually run on the treadmill for about 4.5 miles @ 6-7mph, but am struggling outside with just 2 miles. It's a great program that mixes walking and running to get you started. It goes very gradual too.

A great dip idea that I got from MFP and I have tried before is plain Greek yogurt with some Ranch seasoning. It was super yummy!

This is what I just tried this AM. It was FANTASTIC!! 1/2 cup rolled oats (or regular oatmeal) 1/2 cup Almond Milk 1/2 cup Pumpkin Puree 1 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice Left it in the fridge overnight, and it was FANTASTIC!!

That's awesome!! I'm in the middle of week 2. You should be very proud of yourself!!! :smile:

I have a great pair of running shoes that I was fitted for a few weeks ago. I think it's just the outside running that's getting me. I'm going to my chiropractor tomorrow who specializes in sport related stuff. Thanks for the core suggestions :smile:

Just wait until you get to level 3! I'm on day 5 of level 3 (and doing C25k at the same time) and my back is KILLING ME!! I think it also has to do with 30d shred becoming higher impact as you go along.

Thanks. I'm going to look into them : )

I'm not sure what I want. I don't mind wearing something all day, and the BMF price is something like $6/mo (not hugely expensive). Just wasn't sure if people had personal preferences. What's the difference between your FT7 and FT60?

I had this for dinner and it was FANTASTIC!!! Completely going to make this again. It turned out so much better than I thought it would!!

Thanks guys for all the info!! I need all the help I can get. Like I said I REALLY want to start training for a 5k (I know it's not very far) mainly because it's something I would never have thought I can do! I'm also working circuit training 5 days a week to improve on my cardio stamina as well as running, and I think…

I'm around 5'5" and my goal is 150lbs!

I just mixed a scoop in a plain greek yogurt and it was pretty good. Makes it SUPER thick though.

Let's say that I do end up at a running specific store (which I happen to have down the street) how much am I looking at spending? Ball park?

Thank you :smile:
