I think I stayed under my calories yesterday... I got up this morning to find that I had gotten up in the middle of the night and ate a bowl of cereal. :( I had 285 calories left when I went to bed, so hopefully it wasn't a huge bowl of cereal! Anyone else ever have this happen?

Thanks guys! So... I'm on vacation this week, so I thought this would be a great day to start recording my calories again. I went on a great 6 miler this morning outside... (at a slow pace :) ) It feels good to try and take a more positive attitude on! I have eaten healthy so far today! Good luck everyone!!

Thank you so much for all the good advise! I have been fitted for shoes, however, my feet are big and I think they sometimes recomend whatever shoe that they have in stock in my size! ha ha! I will try the new stretches that I am not already doing now. I know that I have a tendancy to overtrain... Seriously competitive…

I have the same problem!

To decrease my time in a 5k, I do a lot of speed work on the treadmill or track. I usually do a 5 mile tempo run once a week. This consists of running for .5 mile at 7 mph, 2.5 at 7.5 mph, 1 ,mile at 8.0, and gradually increase speed to 10 mph for the last mile. I walk for 5 min after this to relax and stretch my legs.…

Thank you guys for the input. I usually don't eat at night because I am hungry, I just feel the need to constantly be snacking for some reason. It could be because I quit smoking about 3 years ago. I have found that since then, I snack alot more. I think I'm gonna be like Brenda and not be able to have sweets at all. It…

Thanks for the help!

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question!

This is a very interesting topic!! I have naturally been able to breathe while running a lot better than the average person, I think I could go forever without running out of breath. (My legs and hips hurting is what gets me! lol) When I breathe, I breathe in through my mouth and nose. I keep my tongue back and regulate…

Me too. I am good if I can keep from eating the bad stuff all together. If I get started eating something bad for me, I will not stop though. Even way after I am full. : (

What exactly is "clean" eating?

I went on a serious sweets binge over the holiday. I am also addicted to sweets. I am starting to believe the only way to stop is not to have any at all... that means low cal or regular. This is a very sad realization.:frown:

I've been really bad since Wedensday. Ugh. I feel horrible! Like I have and inertube around my waistline! I gained 8 lbs. What I can't figure out is why I cant eat just ONE of anything sweet!!! It gets on my nerves so bad! If I ate one piece of fudge, I ate 20! So, tomorrow, Monday, it is back to being a rabbit. I must…

I am hoping to get back on track! I know I will. I am still running 5-7 miles daily, its just during the holidays, I eat way more sweets! I am also a food addict, so I know I can not eat one cookie. : (

BUMP!!!!

I work out really hard when I'm at the gym. I hate it when I am in the middle of a 6 mile speed work out on the treadmill and people come up and try to carry on a normal conversation with me. It doesn't bother me when I'm at a reasonable speed, but when u are doing 10 and 11 mph intravels you cant talk very well! lol I…

Try going to Roadrunnersports.com and putting your body type and feet info into the "running dog" and it will tell you what shoe you need (for free)!!

For my husband, Adkins was the worst. For me, a shake for breakfast, a shake for lunch, and a sensible dinner. HA HA How can someone possibly make it to dinnetr on 2 shakes! And if they do, there won't be anything sensible about my dinner!

Im gonna be running the music city half marathon in April! Maybe the full, I havent decided!

I say it's my Mother that sabatoges my weight loss, I know it's me. I'm like a drugie, but with food! I am great, until I let myself have 1 cookie, 1 brownie, 1 piece of pie, well, 1 of anything sweet. Then, I cant stop! I just keep on eating! Ugg I have totally lost control the last 3 days. I havent even gotten on the…

I need this group! I always do soo well til nite time! I take Ambian to sleep and when it hits me, I eat. Sometimes I remember it the next day, sometimes I don't. I will go 3 days w/o eating if I don't take it though! So, I'm gonna set my cut off time for 8 and have my husband help me!

Running is an amazing way to loose weight and to feel great about yourself! I saw that you can already run five miles! That is wonderful! For me, Distance running is the only way to loose weight or now, to keep it off. If you would be willing, you should check out a training program for a half marathon. There are some…

I eat a 100 calorie bag of popcorn, and a 90 calorie frozen yogurt (chocolate) ice cream cone like right before I go to bed every night if not more than that! As long as I have the calories left, I loose weight. If I don't I gain. I have gained and lost 4-5 lbs in one day depending if I go over my calories or not. I have…

Almost every morning I eat: 1 packet sugar free (great value) instant maple & brown sugar oatmeal 100 calories 1/4 cup egg beaters 30 calories 1 turkey sausage patty 55 calories Total Calories 185 and I'm full till lunch!

You could probably say that I am an athlete, because I run at least 5 miles a day, and 12-15 miles on saturday. I also do weight training 6 days a week. I am on the right in my pic.

I've been logging everything for like 6 months. I ate horrible friday, did a little better saturday, then went on another binge on sunday! I'm sick to death of logging every single calorie! Im also sick to death of worrying with everything I eat, feeling guilty after a piece of birthday cake, and thinking I have to go run…

I had the same problem with mine. I went to the doc. and they said it was hip bursitis. I had some problems with my IT band also. You better get it checked out because it gets way worse if you don't get it taken care of. Good luck to you! Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Nutrition Facts For Foods
