Ditto. Saucony Pro Grid Hurricane Wide. I replaced the standard insoles with SuperFeet insoles. I have a narrow heel and I need a wide toebox. I also inner pronate on my right foot. Love 'em.

Megan beat me to it. I have practically similar workout schedules. I drop off my two year old at the daycare and my husband picks him up. In the meantime, I go straight from work to the gym and spend 1 hour, hour and a half working out. If my husband is not available to babysit then I either use the gym's kiddie care or…

Started September 28, 2010. It's been 7 weeks and somewhere in there were 2 weeks where I decided to drop my intake to 500-600 calories a day to see if I could lose weight faster. So that experiment crapped out because I did not shed a single pound for 2 weeks (me--> dork). So I'll say 5 weeks on the proper program. I'm…

I'm with her. Yes I'd weigh but not record it. I've gone up as high as +3 on some days, I'm afraid.

Man, I used to hate it with a passion. And I agree it is not for everyone. I had to get over the "hate" because I really wanted to sign up for runs, duathlons and triathlons and these events usually involve some form of running event. So I noticed that the first 5 - 10 minutes for me is hell on a stick. It does not matter…

Speaking from experience... About 4 weeks into the program, I decided to drop my daily calorie intake to 500-600 calories - not because I was doing an experiment but because I'm a dork. I mean, what does MFP know anyway? I can drop my intake and exercise more and I will finish my program earlier. Woo hoo! Yep, I plateaud.…

I normally buy Fage 0% and 2% but this is a cause worth changing a routine for. Thanks for the tip.

Welcome and thank you for plugging back into the Matrix. Great milestone!

Yes but interesting thing about yogurt that Mediterranean diets have known for years... just an fyi. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dr-eric-braverman/for-consistent-weight-los_b_161701.html

I snack at night but as a rule of thumb, I avoid snacking on carbs. Here's my list of snack items on standby: boiled eggs can of tuna nonfat plain yogurt nuts (almond, peanut, pistachio) smoked salmon with capers glass of soymilk edamame Hmmm, yogurt sounds good right about ... now. :)

Off by 3.5 lbs. Not too bad.

I like the plain rice cakes with Athenos hummus. 1 rice cake + half Tbsp hummus = 35 calories + 25 calories = 60 calories. I have 2 of these to curb the 3pm cravings at work.

Hi there! First off , congratulations on your choice to give up smoking. While I have no advice regarding time frame after quitting for body adjustment, I do have some questions re: your MFP experience. Have you been logging everything - I mean everything that you are eating? The same question for your exercise logs. I…

There's definitely a difference. Day 0 shows more of a bulge on the sides. Day 30 shows less of that. Are your jeans feeling loose at all? How are your measurements?

I hear ya! I went through the same dilemna a couple of years ago when I decided (begrudgingly) to start a running program. When I first started, I just used my old aerobics shoes that I used for turbo kickbox other gym classes. After a month of running 3x a week, I noticed pains on my left foot. A friend recommended…

I actually taught it for several years. I stopped when I was 8 months pregnant and never re-started. Funny how stopping TKB coincided with my weight gain. Hmmmm.... Your TKB experience will largely depend on your instructor. Some instructors are "danc-ey". Some instructors incorporate their martial arts background. Some…

It takes courage to admit that they are going through a rough patch, even greater courage to share it in a public forum like this. I am more than happy to share good vibes with you. If you need some NZ humor, try out some Flight of the Conchords music. They are always good for a laugh or two. Hang in there and keep smiling!
