Carbs = energy. If you do not eat carbs, you will not have energy. Simple as that.

Gonna go with 30 this month!

Pretty sure my diary is open, I generally eat around that range. I find it's easier for me to eat a light breakfast and lunch around 200 calories each (I have to eat breakfast as I have bad acid reflux and get sick if I skip, but some people just eliminate that meal altogether with some success), and have a larger dinner,…

These are my favorite recipe sites for healthy takes on beloved foods: http://www.skinnytaste.com/ http://www.emilybites.com/ In the long run it'll be cheaper to prepare your own food than to buy prepackaged stuff, and healthier as well. I suggest maybe picking a few recipes to get you through the week, pick a day to…

I'm sorry if this comes off as harsh because I don't intend this in a mean way at all, but don't you think he probably knows you're not really 207? I know you say you wear the weight well, but 100lbs is a big difference for somebody to not pick up on, and somebody who's 200lbs looks dramatically different from somebody…

You look amazing! Congrats on your progress! Also are you originally from Parsippany, NJ? I couldn't help but notice the shirt in your before photo, I actually live in a town bordering it, so if so, way to make Morris County proud with your incredible accomplishment! :smile:

Okay wow, thanks for all the responses so far! It seems like a lot of people are recommending a TDEE based calorie goal, but from reading your responses so far and the info some of you provided, that seems to assume a regular, reliable weekly exercise schedule. While I have been exercising a lot in the last 3 months, the…

2.76 miles tonight, brings me to 19.49/35 miles

I was one of the few that the ticker was working for yesterday, but I guess my luck finally ran out! I had 15.73miles, plus 1 mile today, so that brings it up to 16.73/35

I guess I'm looking to ultimately run a half-marathon, but I would want to do a 12 week plan starting in January, so I don't really have any ideas of how I would structure this "pre-training" I guess. Like, I could keep increasing 10% each week and designate a long run to add to that, but is there a certain distance I…

I'm new to running, so I'll set a goal of 35 miles for August! Got 2.4 today :)

Okay, you keep suggesting that nobody here possibly has the correct understanding of how bread works, but how are you qualified to make that judgement either? Whole wheat is a complex carb. If you think simple carbs are evil (which is a misinformed view that doesn't take into account our body's need for quick energy, or…
