  • To log everything and to work out 5 times (2 down, 3 to go).
  • I lost about 25 pounds last year, then gained 5 back. This summer I was pretty good about eating well, and I was running a ton, so I lost another 10 pounds. Since then, I haven't been eating as well, and the weight is starting to creep back up, so I'm hoping to put a stop to that before the holidays. Ultimately, I'd like…
  • Hi everyone, mostly a lurker at C*ette as well, but glad to have this group and looking forward to supporting everyone in our efforts to be healthy!

  • I haven't really used particular resources, but I'll check some of these out! I do use Dailymile to track my runs (syncs with Nike+, which is pretty accurate for me).
  • Uprising is the last song on my race playlist! I know when it starts that I have 5 minutes to kick it in. :)

I'd also suggest that you not try minimal shoes unless recommended by the running store where you…
  • I try to keep healthy snacks on hand when I travel so that when I get hungry, I have an option other than something that may be high calorie/low nutritional value. I usually put a few 100-calorie packs of nuts in my bag or pick up some fruit. I think being able to track your intake will be helpful too. Have fun!
