You have to have a very specific type of foot for that...not too much arch but not too flat of a foot either. And you really wouldn't know unless you went and had it checked out. My Dad is an avid runner, been doing it for 35 years...he got a pair of those bare foot running shoes, and had horrible calf pain, then it turned…

I have actually experienced something similar myself!! for a while every morning I would have a bagel w/ butter and a cup of coffee for breakfast. then for lunch i would go to wendys get a small hamburger and chili, then for dinner I would grab subway or something. I didn't snack at all, and thats all i ate all day. When…

One of my most filling snacks is a whole grapefruit w/ a string cheese, or laughing cow. I'm on 1300 calories, take a peek at my diary. :)

Just a few suggestions for your meals from today... maybe add a couple of tablespoons of peanut butter to your banana? For lunch instead of a turkey salad make it a wrap or the actual sandwich, and add avocado. I would try to incorporate another snack like greek yogurt and sprinkle in almonds or walnuts. Hope this helps :)

I am obsessed right now w/ those sorbets you can get at Costco. They are called Island Way or something like that, but theyre are pineapple, mango, coconut, and lemon-pomegranate. And the best part is they come in the actual fruit... the pineapple one is in a half pineapple, the coconut is in a half coconut shell, the…

add avocado to your salad. have brown rice as a side dish?

I'm 26 and trying to lose about 10 pounds. I've been stuck at this goal for a while!!

I'm 5'7... so pretty close! HEAVIEST: 160 March 2009 LIGHTEST: 144... well i was lighter than this like 5 years ago but i have no idea what i weighed.

If you want to cut back on carbs I have found the best thing to do is fill up on lean protein and veggies. You don't want to cut carbs out, this site is all about everything in moderation. Try to add lean chicken, tuna fish and beef to your meals (not all at once hahaha) also, eggs are great! They keep you full and are…

Mexican food... if I go to a mexican restaurant its over...lol

I love skinnytaste.com...seriously yummy stuff!!! Some of its really simple, some is more time invested , but you are sure to find something!!

Same to you!!!

I'm going in October, I need to get my butt in gear too!!!!

I ran a half marathon last November... I would say make sure you are only doing one 'long rung' a week. The other runs in the week should be maintenance runs, like 3-5 miles. Good luck!!

One of my friends became a runner about a year and a half ago. After 3 babies, and absolutely NO running experience, or even a gym membership, last month she completed her second half marathon. She started a blog when she started out www.journeytothemiddle.blogspot.com, its actually featured in the Seattle pi and she was…

I found the HRM and the treadmills i run on at the gym and my work gym are not too far off. I know a lot of people have seen huge differences. I see a pretty big difference on the elliptical though, I never burn as many cals as those machines say i do.

Try a new recipe each week! Skinnytaste.com has some great ones, that even my boyfriend loves, or try searching using the 'recipe' forum here on MFP. Also, keep the junk out of your house!!!!!! Everyone is right though, the more good stuff you eat, the more you'll crave it. Not saying we don't get cravings for nachos and…

the new britney spears!!

Nile Black Bean Soup!! Only 170 calories and soooo filling!!

Spring Rolls!! Go light on the dipping sauce. A lot of Thai places have really yummy salads, and they toss the salad with the dressing, ask for light dressing or on the side.

I get some good quality dark chocolate... that usually gets me through. Just don't buy the bag of Dove dark chocolate pieces.... i made that mistake once hahaha

Patti: Goal weight on July 31st: 146 07/01: 151.6 07/04: 07/11: 07/18: 07/25: 07/31: UGH!! I was 148 two weeks ago... so frustrating. Its almost TOM though, so I'm hoping that is part of it!! Good luck over the holiday weekend everyone!!
