That's very inspirational. Congrats on reaching your goal weight. My goal weight is about the same and you are absolutely right; I have been losing inches consistently, but weight only once in a while.

Week 1: 20 miles Week 2: 23 miles Week 3: 25 miles Week 4: 28 miles Week 5: 30 miles Week 6: 35 miles Let's hope I make it. At the moment I've got gigantic blisters on my footsoles so not planning to run the first two days, but after that I'm back 'in the running'.

^This. But have you tried a support bandage. I have weak ankles and a knee that's acting up from time to time. I use the bandages because my ligaments are too flexible and it limits their range. I also try to run only on bouncy grounds like earth or the running track (which has a sort of rubber [?] as a surface).

Alright, I phrased it the wrong way. "On the brighter note!".

Let's not be pessimistic. I believe that awareness about healthy food is being raised. In Britain, for instance, doctors are rooting for a ban on all advertising related to fast food or soda. Just like a ban against cigarette comercials was raised in the 70s (?). I sincerely hope they win the battle and the trend will…

Wasn't it Kate Moss who said "Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels?"

I hate weekends for exactly this reason. Normally, I don't have a swimming training on Sunday's so I don't have the exercise calories I can eat. Luckily, I've got great MFP friends. ^_^

Congrats! Such a cutie too!

I tap my tummy when I'm bored or I feel I should get off my *kitten* to do some sports. It seems to get less wobbly every week. ^_^

Wouldn't worry too much about the sugar intake from fruit or vegetables. They generally don't spike your blood sugar and they aren't bad for you in any way.

You look absolutely gorgeous! I love your running outfit.

Vegan here. Feel free to add me.

I lost my father almost two years ago. He was very sick, but since no euthanasia was possible he decided to kill himself. My mother, my brothers and I knew nothing of his plans and on the first day of university, I received the news that my dad had deceased. Even though I can't really blame my weight loss on his death, I…

Thanks for the tip. I'll definitely try it out. Is it available in every pharmacy?
-
My apologies. I wasn't trying to offend you or your exercise routine. I was merely relating what helped for me.

I asked a similar question a while back, but didn't receive an answer. I suffer cold hands and feet which sometimes even prevent me to sleep. My guess is that we both have bad circulation; exercise seems to help, though, because when I talk a brisk walk before going to bed or when I swim a lot the symptoms seem to…

First of all: do the happy dance! Secondly: I would set the food-section of MFP to 'maintenance'. As the previous poster already mentioned; eat clean and exercise at least once a day. Perhaps you should visit a fitness center nearby to ask advice there? Most of the time, they've got a skilled person who can help you with…

I make my own little pizzas with half pitta breads that I put in the oven for 10 minutes and later I add the tomato sauce and the vegetables. De-li-cious!

Could you make your diary public so we might have a look?

According to Joel Fuhrman, the author of Eat To Live "Saturated fat: Some naturally occuring fats are called saturated because all the carbon are single bonds. These fats are solid at room temperature and are generally recognized as a significant cause of both hearht diseas and cancer .Saturated fats are found mainly in…

Well, if you want to up your calories to 1700 and you burn between 600 and 900, then yes...you should eat around 2500-2700. Good luck!
-
Are you sure your HRM is accurate? And if so, how do you do it? I work out quite frequently, but I never get passed 1600 of work-out calories burnt.
-
Added you as my friend. Welcome to MFP!
-
I'm a vegan myself too and I have to say that I never really care about fats. As long as they're not trans-fats I'm happy. What's more, fat is the one thing that can up my calories so if I would try to cut that, I'd end up undereating. In short, I wouldn't bother about it too much if they're healthy non-animal fats. I've…

I love the transformation of your face. You've got lovely cheekbones!
-
Thank you so much, everyone. I hadn't expected so much support. This truly is an amazing community with amazing people!
-
I never drink any alcohol and I've been losing weight quite steadily. I can only support your goal!
-
Lemme be the first to reply. I'd love to be your friend. Feel free to add me.

I know this sounds contradictory, but whenever I exercise I am not hungry. Perhaps take a walk when you are really hungry?
