Sugar snap peas, baby carrots, almonds, black beans, butternut squash - these are all staples that I try to have at all times.

When I started doing intervals on the treadmill for about 20 min total, it really helped me get faster during my steady pace runs!

I go a gym near work in downtown Boston but my work pays for my membership, so even though the gym is not very nice I can't complain and it does the job. I feel like in general YMCA type places or community centers are the best value but may not always be the nicest. If you live in Southie there is a community center that…

I travel pretty often for work usually for a week at a time. I make a point to work out every morning. I get up early and hit the gym at the hotel. I also pack snacks from home, such as apples, baby carrots, almonds and Joseph's Flax, Oat Bran & Whole Wheat Pita Bread, so I know that I will at least have a few days worth…

I try to keep it at not more than 100g per day and the majority of my carbs come from fruits and veggies . I have been really happy doing this and it is not that hard, plus I have gotten results, especially paired with HIIT on the treadmill.

Drink a lot of water! Muscle cramps can happen when you are dehydrated. My calf cramped up the other day while I was working with a trainer and she asked me if I was drinking enough water.

Hi, I have been doing HIIT on the treadmill where I have sprinted for 30 seconds and then run at a slow pace (you can even walk) for 1.5 min and then repeated that for about 20-30 minutes. If you do this about 3x per week (every other day, not two days in a row as your body needs to recover from that) it really helps burn…

Hi! I'm Catherine and I live in South Boston and work near North Station. I love to run, lift weights, circuit train and go to spin class!

Have you tried running intervals? I try to run them about 3x per week for at least 20 min and it has really helped with fat loss!

Hi! I am also 5' 3'' and when I started this journey I was 133/134. My ultimate goal is to get down to 120, but I have been hovering at 127 for the past three weeks or so. I have been strength training and my clothes fit better but the scale won't budge. It is frustrating because now it seems as though every pound is a…

I'm 5'3" and my ultimate goal weight is 120. I started at 133 and I am 127 right now. I have been lifting weights a lot and therefore actual weight loss as measured by the scale has slowed. I have lost inches though and I am thinking I would be happy with a toned 125.

My personal trainer suggested Joseph's low carb pita (its called Flax, Oat Bran & Whole Wheat Pita Bread) and low carb lavash (Flax, Oat Bran & Whole Wheat Square Lavash) bread. http://www.josephsbakery.com/ One pita is 60 cals and 8g carbs (4g of that are fiber). Hope this helps!
