buy land and leave the booze alone!!

a 10K is a good fun run. I would say just go out there and run it like you would a training run and see how you do. The motivation from the crowd will give you a boost. It's also a great way to get a time down for your 1st 10k. Build from there. Most importlantly, since I am a Marine, I would say don't forget the cause you…

just got home from beach,and covered myself in sunscreen to be sure not to get burned, but always seem to miss a spot!!

I ran 2 half marathons and 4 Marine Corps marathons, 20 years ago. The half was fun too me and I used it as part of my training to motivate me. The full marathons were a hell of a lot harder, required more training and commitment, but was much more rewarding. The first full I went out to finish, the next 3 were like being…

tell my wife and kids I am proud of them and I have no regrets, and please forgive me Lord!!!

I put on subtle light and listen to feng shue music, very soothing and relaxing. I went and saw a hypnotist for this problem and he also told me when you sleep, try to lay on back, relax, and do not cross any body parts as this throws off body chemistry. I go to bed at 8 o'clock at night and get up at 3 am, so sleep is…

what a great job!! I can see your progress, you should be proud of yourself because you are the one doing the work, no one else. Keep up the outstanding job!!!!!!!!!!!!!

congrats on raising the calories!! You seem to want to do what's right and I think along with increasing the calories, you should seek professional help. I don't mean that in a hurtful way because I have 2 daughters in their 20's and that's what I would tell them. I am sorry that you don't have the parental support, but…

I can't see you food diary so it is tough to give you advice. Are you eating enough protein, do you eat every few hours, like fruit or veggies, etc? If you allow us to see diary, we might be able to give you ideas, but don't quit!!!!!

Always looking for friends to motivate. My name is Norman and feel free to add me if you would like. Good luck either way!!!!

Have a great reunion when he gets home and thanks for both your service to the country. A military wife is a special lady!!! Semper Fi, and congrats!!!! Keep it up!!! and don't wear him out too bad,haha!!

I drink it all the time. I take the raspberry grean tea and I add Bigelow green tea that I heated in my pan. I use 8 tea bags, boil, then mix with my crystal lite. I love it because I was hooked on soda and I haven't had but maybe 2 glasses of soda in a year.

that's outstanding!!!! Great job. I know how you feel because I went from a 42 waist to a 36 and I am wicked pysched!!! Enjoy the moment, YOU earned it.

great post, thanks for the insight. I was wondering if I was short changing my workout on the elliptical, but now I can put that thought to rest.

Don't be too hard on yourself, been there before as I am sure we all have. Do yourself a favor and write it down in your diary. You need the reminder. Why lie to yourself. Screw it, it's done!!! Tomorrow is a new day, learn from the expeience. Good luck!!!

I like 2 slices of wheat toast with hummus on them, topped with 2 eggs sunny side up and some type of fruit and a cup of coffee. That's usually my 3:30 AM breakfast. Sometimes I just have cereal with either blue or strawberries, lowfat milk and a cup of coffee.

there were Babes in the Woods!!!

I looked at your eating for the past week and I think you need more veggies, good source of vitamins and minerals. Also, don't be afraid to get that variety of protein into your body, such as eggs, yogurts, turkey, etc. The protein will help you feel fuller longer and you need it for recovery from exercises. Take some type…

I like the Blues, but my team is the Habs, who are playing golf right about now!!

I ran 4 marathons and 3 half marathons. I f you can find a runner's club near you, get involved. They are wicked knowledgable and eager to help. Also. there is a good book by Jeff Galloway that will help you prepare. My personal advice is get good shoes, build a good base mileage, and stay true to the long runs and go slow…

My diary is open, go for it!!! Hope you do well on the project.
