Going by the food listed on here, 4 pieces is about 35 calories and 2 grams of protein. This is equal to walking 10 - 15 min. at about 3 miles per hour.

Sounds like new muscle use, not shin splints. Shin splints hurt the whole front of your shin. Just make sure you are doing some good stretches of the calf and shin. You can always heat & ice, to help with pain. :wink:

This should help some: gg whites - 4 grams protein, 0 carbs, and 0 fat Nonfat plain greek yogurt - 15 protein, 17 carbs, 0 fat, 15 sugar Nonfat cottage cheese - 13 protein, 7 carbs, 0 fat, 5 sugar Grilled chicken breast, 4 oz - 21 protein, 1 carb, 2 fat (look at sodium content) spinach leaves 2 cups - 3 protein, 4 carbs, 0…

The question is, were you running at all before? If not, it could be just the muscles being used. Just like when you lift a weight until you can not lift it any more. The next day, you muscle hurts. The new shoes may change your running form, requiring your to use different muscle. I am not ruling out shin splints, caused…

Another possible suggestion would be to change your diet up. You could do two things. You could zig-zag calories, do a few days higher calories, then a day lower. Or you could increase your protein, decrease fat & carbs. The higher protein should not only help build muscle, but it should also help burn fat. The more muscle…

Tues. Morning after I use the facilities, only in bra & panties.

Maybe it is that you are eating more than you assume you are eating. Everyone's body is different and needs different things. Maybe you should try changing you protein, fat, and carb ratios, until you find what works for your body. The important part is don't give up, fight through it, it will come off!!

I want to go pick up my kids from school in this: http://www.pinupgirlclothing.com/sailor-playsuit-bettie-page.html

I posted on this just the other day and most of the woman gained, some up to 7lbs. So hang tight. They all said they lost it, plus some, by the end of the week!

Congrats, I wish I looked like that at 140!! How tall are you?

Welcome from another southern Ca. I have been on here for a little over three weeks and find it really helpful. good luck.:flowerforyou:

I really like this sight for determining my caloric intake: http://www.freedieting.com/tools/calorie_calculator.htm But way to go. Diet is typically 60% or more for most people, to loose weight. If you are now controlling this, at your weight, you may have 2 - 3 big weeks, then slow way down. Just enjoy it and add some…

Everybody gains and looses fat differently. Though you may not have lost much on your belly, you have to be seeing it somewhere? Keep up the had work and it will soon start coming off the stomach. And don't worry about the crunches, they will tighten the muscle, but if it is truly a fat issue, the cardio is what you want…

This may sound really bad for you and taste sinful, at least to me. Take a banana, leave it in the peel, cut down the inside curve of it. then place two small pieces of dark chocolate (less than 1 oz). You can then add 4-4 little Marshmallows (2.2 calories each). You then wrap it in aluminum foil and grill it for about 3 -…

I use sprout bread. It does not metabolize to sugar. It is more dense than normal bread, but I really enjoy it.

Thanks for making this thread!! I think it is great to have others help keep you in check for your goals. If I loose the 5 lbs in august, I will have 6.5 lbs left!! Tattoodfreek- to lose 8 pounds and Hit goal weight!!! Tiarapants - to lose 7 pounds (starting 173 pounds as of August 1st) Cnbethea - to lose 8 pounds Yentess…

Ok, some times we just need to suck it up and do what we need to do. You have to drink water, this alone will cut you calorie intake, because of your drink choices. Maybe try adding a squeeze of lemon or try herbal teas (mint or something more flavorful, to eliminate sugar). As for exercise with a 2 year old. Throw him/her…

its actually a sign of muscle strain and build up of lactic acid - basically a sign that you should feel it 1-2 days later. I recommend a long hot bath and a good stretching session to relax the muscles. It will also help to eliminate some of the pain in later days.

As always, there are different studies that say different things. The newest studies say the intensity is enough. Here is an article for you. http://exercise.about.com/cs/cardioworkouts/a/10minute.htm

I am out her on the west coast, Los Angeles!! Love it. I have lived in Maine, Kansas, Missouri, Texas, and Iowa. I met my husband on Match.com. I love this sight and appreciate all the extra support and advice.

My thoughts are, if you decide to go, lay down rules before hand. No sex, kissing, or unwanted affection. You are going as friends only. This is a time you can evaluate the relationship to see if divorce is the only answer. I see you have 5 children. They need to know the two of you can still be friends and adults. Let…

Thanks you two. I did just have a turkey sandwich. I think I will go do some weights and get in a little cardio before everyone starts showing up!

Sugar is very difficult to beat down. One problem is that sugar cravings are typically worst around the 3rd day. Not only that, but when we, sugar cravers, are not eating sugar, we are eating bread, rice, pasta, or potatoes. These food metabolize into sugar in the body, recreating this craving. So One way is to try a…

My suggestion would be to look up and see if you local restaurant has a webpage. If so, they might have the nutrition listed, you can then base it off of those or find another chain restaurant and look at the calories there (they will be some what similar). I would go with a chicken or shrimp dish. Watch out for anything…

Two things that strike me when I look at your food diary. First, you need to make sure you are eating at least 1200 calories. If not, your body will think it is starving and you will stop loosing weight. The second factor I see is that many of the items you are eating metabolizes into sugar, all the bread type items. I can…
