I guess it depends on why you guys split. I'd be mad at the "don't know who to pick" comment regardless. If you guys broke up because he's a piece of poo, I'd just feel sorry for her. And if I'd told her about his poo-ness, then I'd be disappointed in her and wonder why she would put herself through that. If you just broke…

I'm so happy to read this post! This is such a pet peeve of mine, watching sizes go down on everyone but me. HA! I'm at 32 pounds lost and FINALLY have dropped a size, maybe 2, in pants. I started in 16 Women's, and those are too big so I got rid of them. Currently wearing 16 in misses and they are baggy but still stay up.…

Since dropping soda I don't have to use the restroom NEAR as often. And I don't feel bloated like I used to. Sometimes on a weekend I still mindlessly grab a diet soda instead of water, and it hurts. I will never go back.

What else are you drinking all day? I drink at least 100 ounces of water every day. I would be so thirsty if I only had 30 ounces of fluid in an entire day!

I think it's stride. When you run faster or jump, or do other high impact, you are probably landing forefoot first. When you run slower, you may be hitting heal first. You could try to modify your stride to see if it helps with the hypersensitivity issues? Can you walk? Or does walking give the same sensations? If you can…

Way to go!!!! I want to do a Warrior Dash so bad. Didn't hear about it until after the one that was close to me though, so I'm going to do it next year. It looks so dang awesome! We have a Zombie Run coming up in October that is somewhat similar, so I'm going to do it to get my feet wet. :) Way to inspire!!

Man, I wish someone would do the food planning and portion controlling for me! HAHA You're doing great! Keep up the good work :) As for the dinner, Just get faster at responding. And the next person that points out his weight loss and asks how he's doing it, hop in and say that YOU'RE doing it and you're doing x and x and…

Have you sat on both of these bikes yet? If not, plan to do that before you buy. Many years ago WAY back in college I was convinced I wanted a Kona. Got all the way to the bike shop 3 hours away only to find that it really didn't fit my body well. And I fell in love with the Specialized. It just fits me better. The reach…

Great to read everyone's introductions! I'm Erin, 36 years old, work full time, and have a 5 year old daughter. I did my first 5K 2 years ago by completing the c25k program at my local YMCA. I hated every minute of the running, but I loved how I felt with the accomplishment, how great I looked, and how healthy I felt.…

Count me in! Starting my own version tomorrow and an official c25k class Aug 27th for a 5K beginning of Nov!

Go see your doctor. My entire foot was going tingly and numb when I ran, turns out I have 1 foot bone that is bigger than the connecting toe bone and when I bend my toes too far the bones rub together and cause problems. I've finally found a pair of stiffer sole shoes that won't let my toe bend too far and am about to…

Don't forget the mighty period. Not sure how long you've been monitoring, but about 2 or 3 months into exercising I noticed a significant decrease in how many pounds I gain right before and during my period that magically fell off the following week. Now it's no more than a pound or two difference, but initially it was up…

Took me 30 pounds to go down a single size. Would be nice if there was a standard, but alas, there is not.

What if she did the insert as one poster suggested, but just had it available on request? She could put a little insert in the menus for a week stating nutrition information now available upon request, and then take that out after a week. It would get the word out that if people want to look it's there, without deterring…

Wow! How could someone NOT see the difference! Amazing!!!

Sucks that it doesn't count,doesn't it? I walk 5-6 miles a day at my job too, and even my doctor always told me it didn't count as exercise whenever she would talk to me about losing weight. She always said it had to be over and above my normal daily routine.

I'm going to tell you to make a big ceremony over throwing it away and give yourself a prize of a super expensive healthy lunch for wasting food. And this is why. Wasting food comes from your past. It's been ingrained in your head your whole life that the starving kids in Ethiopia will somehow be more starved if you waste…

You can buy a special bowl for the microwave that pops up without the calories and salt too. It's pretty neat, we've used ours a couple of times.

Great job! I did a 5K by 35, and it felt WONDERFUL. Can't wait to do another one!
