I don't buy sports drinks and I tried buying "corrective" shoes. Neither was a fit for me. When I first got back into working out, I was pretty gung ho and went out and bought some $115 running shoes that actually hurt my legs more than helped. Now their just expensive walking shoes because I can't run in them. My sports…

I've got some funny ones. I just don't know how to post them... :frown:

It was a eye opener for me to see what the caloric value was to the food that I was eating so, I changed what I eating instead how much I ate. The first thing I do everyday when I wake up is drink 2 cups of water then, eat a bowl of Better Oats oatmeal (100 calories). I usually eat fruit or fruit leathers (45 calories)…

Having the right shoes is definitely a must. Most shoes sold and sports stores or places like footlocker don't carry "wide" shoes. You feet need room to expand and you will see a difference in the discomfort you're having with shin splints. Everything is relative so doing the right stretches would will help a whole lot. I…

Don't be in a rush to lose the weight, that can be discouraging. Focus on getting healthier and the weight loss will take care of itself! Find an activity that you love doing and commit to it! Don't worry about what other people are doing that burns more calories, do what you enjoy that burns calories and you'll burn more…

The title "Fake Tan" caught my eye and reminded me of this guy I met years ago. We were in a sales meeting in November in St Louis. This guy was from Minnesota and was giving a presentation. No one heard what he said because they couldn't figure out how he became a burnt orange in November from Minnesota! It was the…

I'm running a night race this weekend too and I plan to do what I normally do on days that I run; eat early and light.

I am allowed 1800 calories a day but I don't eat that many usually. The secret for me is, I drink about 10 -12 cups of water a day. The first thing I do when I get up is drink two cups of water before breakfast. I drink 2 cups of water before a meal and I only drink water with my meals. I know I might be a little obsessed…

I've competed the C25k and had some of the same issues in the beginning. From what I've learned, breathing is the primary culprit. Breath with your stomach, and not with your chest. When you inhale (doesn't matter if its through your nose or mouth) your stomach should expand and not your chest. I initially thought that I…

As much as I love Mexican food, I avoid it for this very reason unless I have no intentions of counting any calories that night!

When I wanted to buy a Groupon for horseback riding and they had a weight limit. I was going to buy another one for a zip line adventure and it had a weight limit. The limits were pretty generous and I exceeded them with no problem.

When I looked in the mirror and realized my "shape" was out of shape! I was telling a friend of mine that I wasn't always fat; wasn't a fat kid or adult and that I just gained my weight in the past 10 years (I'm 42). She said so, your fat now and full of excuses. I was offended but it was the truth. I also could not fit my…

Go out of the country and run! Upgrade your equipment and sell the old stuff for cash.

Well lets see... Initially, I grew tired of people calling me slim and trying to muscle me ( I was 6ft and weighed about 180lbs) So I packed on about 20lbs of muscle over a few years and thought I would stop when I reached 220lbs (my wife had some issues with everything I did. I wasn't allowed to join the gym so I invested…

This is research in progress. I've been reading a lot of reviews for scales on Amazon and so far I think the doctors scale has the most consistent reviews. I'm just scared to pull the trigger and spend $150 on a scale to get the same results with a cheap one.

Yep its true! When will I see the new nutrition labeling? Some establishments are already posting nutrition information, but the nutrition labeling requirements won’t be finalized until FDA completes the rulemaking process—that means reviewing comments that the public submits in response to the proposed rules and issuing…

I don't want to buy new clothes yet but I did go shopping to see if could find something. I'll just let these clothes become baggy a little while longer. I still have about 80lbs I want to lose so I'm just not ready to invest yet.

Lol! I just got back from doing hill sprints. Today I did 8 sprints with about a 1:30 rest in between (long steep hill). It takes me at least 30 seconds to run up the hill as fast as I can and jog down. It took me about 30 min to do it 8x with one lap around the stadium parking lot. Today I burned 915 calories according to…

I do hill sprints. Find a hill and run up as fast as you can and walk down with 1 - 2 min breathers in between. I can do that 6 times and burn 700 calories according to my heart rate monitor.
