Oh my goodness, thank you so much! I'm sorry, but I'm not going to sit there and multiply the fiber by 4, etc. It takes long enough to prepare the juice and clean up the machine!

Amazing!!!

This is a good post. I'm training for a half marathon and have found that running alone doesn't do much for me, either. I have to really watch my food intake and add other things, like others have mentioned. However, I will say, it DID work for me before I had a baby, so who knows.

You can really see the progress. Keep up the good work!

My 5K was today and I finished in 30:08!!! Almost a minute under my personal best! I think I might be hooked!

I think our group total is all over the place! I logged 14 miles this week...

UPDATE: I ran a whole 5K outside this morning and logged one of my best times yet! Looks like the treadmill training is actually just fine for me!

I was afraid you would all tell me to start running outside. There's no place near my house and by the time I get off work and get home, it's almost dark. I'll have to figure something out!

My brother has a pair and absolutely loves them. Like TOMS, they sort of have a cult following. You can only get them at high-end running stores or online though, which makes me think they're made for serious runners. With the VFF, you have to get special socks too...so not only are you paying for the shoes, you're also…

Hey I just came across this recipe today. Might be a good lower fat option for you! http://eclecticrecipes.com/fettuccine-alfredo-spinach-mushrooms/

Ice cream! Sometimes I'll blend up frozen chunks of banana for a lower-fat option. Like someone else said, the slim a bears and skinny cows are good substitutes too.

I never eat all of them, but occasionally I'll eat a few.

I'm doing a similar plan from RunnersWorld.com and love it. I'm like you, I was super nervous that I wouldn't be able to do it, but I can! I actually love running now. Now there's something I never thought I'd say in a million years. I've been doing a lot of reading lately since I'm new to running and the key is to avoid…

Congratulations! That is such an amazing milestone!

I tried the berry smoothies with the flaxseed oil and I couldn't stomach it. My boss swears by flaxseed, but it smells and tastes like fish to me! I really wanted it to work out, too!

Great post! Thanks. Congratulations on your awesome weight loss too!
