I'm the same op! We can do it :D

I haven't been doing it for very long, only 3 or so weeks if not less where I've been focusing on it. Because it has been a short time it's hard for me to say whether I have lost weight so I'll need to give it more time. I've been obsessed with greek yoghurt and oats for breakfasts and I agree that those days I have that I…

This is a really cool idea and one I will definitely need to try out!

That's a valid point! It's hard for me to say if i've been losing weight yet as I've only been going hard at this for less than a month. I have indeed noticed less chin/neck fat - however this could be a result of decreased bloating from eating fairly clean.

Oh man, I'm so glad you know the feels! It really sucks! Feeling hungry is actually the worst feeling. Unfortunately I'm not one to be able to eat a light breakfast or lunch because that just makes me h-angry throughout the day haha. It's not ideal! What kind of meals have you been eating? I've recently been trying to…

Indeed - the calorie goal is from mfp! I understand that it is designed to eat back exercise, but it would still be ideal for me to not 'waste' all the calories lost from my exercise, you feel? You do highlight a good point about protein and fat though. Based on my recent diary entries I tend to eat many carbs but not much…

Fair call, and very reasonable :)

Not sure if I trust myself with a whole bag of minis yet :p

yeah preach!!

I just ate it everybody, and it was wonderful. I walked to work, and have a run scheduled today. Balance is everything, i'm so happy!!

very good point. Tomorrow has a scheduled workout so thta totally makes sense with what you're saying! :)

I like that ;) Kit kat is planned and logged for tomorrow. My body is ready for this

Isn't tea a diuretic?[/quote] I'm not sure.. I mindlessly drink green tea, and english breakfast out of habit.

Hahahaha no I love it!! It's totally a good thing to be calorie aware ;) It's justified hehe. New Zealand just got salted caramel kitkats so that's why i've been craving it so badly - I'm desperate to try the new flavour!!

Haha I'm constantly drinking water and tea so it's definitely not hydration :(

you're right - it's 210! Tomorrow's lunch is a green salad, then quinoa salad for lunch so it should definitely fit!!

hahaha love it!!

This is a great idea. I'm going to log it in for tomorrow :)

I always struggle to eat within my 1500 calories and most days end up eating over it because I earn calories from exercise.. so in theory no day do I ever have calorie allotment :(

good on you!! you are so disciplined!!!

YUM! That sounds amazing - i'll check it out for sure!

Okay I have just added this to my bucket list!!

Sweet potato pancakes??!?!?! Time to google recipes :)

Sounds like a really good routine you have there - and I totally agree that getting it done first thing means your evenings are free to take care of other life obligations. You guys have convinced me - looks like I'll do my scheduled run in the morning tomorrow instead of the evening. So grateful for the positive input and…

Great post and I totally agree! Thank you :)

Oh, that is a valid point!! Never thought of that - will add that to my bucket list now :)

Thanks for your post - congratulations on getting to 10km, when only starting at 2.5km! That's amazing. A question though, how many mornings a week do you fit these in, and then do you also get up that early on the days you don't run?

You're right - I should definitely factor in morning pace vs normal pace. Good input!

This had me salivating..
