I definitely do

No its very helpful, thank you!

Lets see.....I have been on 1350 calories since November-ish. And Until May I was running 4-5x a week (20 miles a week or so), In mid may I started working out 6 days a week with less running. I take Thursdays off from all exercise (well except my work walk).

Thank you all for your insight. I do feel that I was doing something right because I would not have lost 24lbs without doing something correctly. Sometimes, we make errors, which is why I reached out. But I have also learned that things that works for others may not work for me. To the guy who said "relax and take a…

Yikes, you are correct. I did not realize the chicken was so incorrect. That was totally my bad. The bacon is two different types of bacon, the one is ready bacon, which I scanned and the other is another brand that I scanned in.

I guess my next stupid question would be, if 1350 is not acceptable for the amount that I work out, then what is?

Thank you so much this has all been helpful! On Sunday when I make my meals I will definitely be weighing my food on the scale and double checking. I do use the bar code scanner for the processed things which is why the yogurt is measured in half a cup. But all the produce does not have a bar code.

Ya. I can start measuring the solids on a scale. I do not usually cross check. It's probably my bad to assume things are correct on here.

Hi! I have been at a plateau for 4 weeks. Since starting Piyo basically. I weigh my meats out, and yes I use a measuring cup for the fruits and the yogurt, etc. In the beginning I was weighing out all the things and found there wasn't much difference. Plus, their definitely is not a true half a cup of strawberries because…

The best cure I have found for these stitches during running is to sing. It encourages diaphragm relaxation and focus breathing. Only takes a few minutes to relax the diaphragm and your off

For a laparascopic procedure you are pumped full of air for the tools to go in. At the end of the procedure they do not release the air but your body takes time to reabsorb it. In addition they give you a ton of fluid during surgery to keep your blood pressure up. In addition to the pain medication and the anesthesia. You…

Congrats on the training for your first full marathon!!!! I have not set that as a goal yet as I think the Half was just enough. However, I never hit a wall during the run and probably could have gone further if they would have let me. Keep up the good work and keep us posted!!!

I started with 5Ks and 10Ks, then I saw the Disney Princess Half. I thought to myself what a great goal to get to. It was a painful and very challenging but it was the fastest 3 hours of my life! Now, I have the desire to do more!!! Once you get to 10ks then you can do a half! Pace yourself and you will be successful!

4-4.5mph is awesome!!! Keep it up! Jog, to me, does equal a run. 5.0 is faster than my walking speed, therefore I am running. If 4-4.5 is faster than you walk, ,then you are running!!!

My spousal equivalent is a bad influence. Brings food into the house that is not healthy even when I ask him not to. He is thin and just very inconsiderate! I am also fat because I can not turn down bad food.

Melatonin is great. The thing you need to remember is that it needs to be taken at bedtime for about 1 week to 2 weeks before you see the full effect. You can start at 1 mg and go all the way up to 10 mg. As someone said before, the disolvable kind works better than the digested kind and if you can take it on an empty…

what does the challenge look like?

It is more than likely the Niacin in the Spark. If you want something similar try taking a super b complex in the AM. It is almost exactly the same as the Spark drink

I did Advocare. The first 10 days is a cleanse, basically an elimination diet with clean foods, nothing processed at all, and supplements. I had a lot of success with the first 10 days, however on day 11 you start to take a LOT of supplements. Basically, these are fish oil, Niacin and b12 pills with some other stuff mixed…

I would be acceptable of a size 10, maybe size 8 at my goal. Going from a 16 to an 8 sounds like so far to go!

after 6 months of no periods.....i would recommend seeing a doctor.

The best advice I can give you about the SSRIs is try one, if you don't like it or you have unwanted side effects, switch to a different one. Everyone is going to be different. The appetite effect is because serotonin is created in the gut and for people with Depression will often lack serotonin so now you increase it and…

All of the SSRIs (prozac, paxil, zoloft, lexapro, celexa) can cause weight gain. It is a very well known, published side effect that happens in majority of people. Usually caused by water retention. Atypical Antipsychiotics like Seroquel also have a high weight gain potential. Drug classes like the Atypical Antidepressants…
