Really well done, great feeling :)

The directness of the MFP boards can be overwhelming at first. People can expect more of a Facebook style love-in, but that's not how it ends up. Embrace people's honesty and experience here and your food intake will be less crap before you know it.

There are arguments for and against treadmills, but it's down to personal choice and circumstances. 1% incline is a generally agreed compensation for wind resistance. The idea of "frowned upon" might be because outdoor runners can find treadmill running boring after being used to a view and actually getting somewhere. I…

I didn't say research - I said article. Like even an imagined example of the benefits as she sees them. I know there's no research, that much is clear.

And the circle is complete... http://www.sciencekids.co.nz/experiments/invisibleink.html

I just meant I did a search on her site and couldn't find an article on the benefits of warm lemon water. I thought you could point me to it?

If you are determined to use the treadmill then you'll either need to change your speed, distance or incline to improve. It sounds as though you are keen to keep your distance the same, and you're having trouble increasing your speed. So go with the incline. Put the machine up a percent and do your usual run. Incidentally,…

Saturdays.

Is there a link to an article about lemon water?

YEAH box diet!

My wife swears by these - http://deliciouslyella.com/video-how-to-make-energy-bites/

It's not an "app" as such but for a good progressive plan use http://www.runnersworld.co.uk/racing/runners-world-smartcoach/3057.html

I used to put a spoonful of mayonnaise in with my chicken salad for lunch, but for about the same calories but less fat and more protein I now add about 80g of cottage cheese instead. And I love it :-)

Full of Bee-vitamins.

Good luck with your amputation.

Surely "Thanks for the facts" ?

This is the one I use - http://www.dolphinfitness.co.uk/en/optimum-nutrition-micronized-creatine-powder-300g/18267 As simple as it comes, dissolves quickly in water or juice and has a little measuring spoon for your daily amount.

Almonds.

No it's not - my knees crack all the time and I'm not getting any older. No I'm NOT.

Here's an interesting link... http://www.nhs.uk/chq/Pages/how-many-calories-do-children-need.aspx?CategoryID=51 600 calories a day is 3 times less than a 9 year old CHILD needs... that's your answer right there!

Have a look here - take a longer term view and most of us notice ups as well as downs. But good will triumph in the end! http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10283553/weight-loss-is-not-linear

This is still one of the best customisable online running coaches I've used. http://www.runnersworld.co.uk/racing/runners-world-smartcoach/3057.html Enter your details and look at the plan it produces for you - then decide to do it, or choose another race. As for the Great North Run - I did this a few years ago and the…

I think it's the calories.

1 - weights, legs and shoulders 2- run, 6 miles easy 3 - weights, chest 4 - run, hill sprints 5 - weights, back 6 - run, 8-11 miles 7 - cheese and biscuits....

This has worked for me - set at sedentary and wearing a tracker (Fitbit and now Forerunner) but assuming they over estimate slightly.

I hope one day to be judged on good things I "might" have said rather than stupid things I actually said.

This - a definite feel good move.

A positive cycle of results - see / feel the benefits, want more.

I had this recently; I disconnected MFP from Garmin then reconnected and it's been good ever since. Takes a while to sync though, and can need told to do it a couple of times...
