  • When my husband and I were first dating, he was a groomsman in a wedding. I didn't know many of his friends yet, but I went along. A girl tore up our wedding gift to the couple "on accident," I got thrown up on in the limo by the best man, girls I didn't know had to help me wring the vomit out of my dress at the reception…

  • Thanks, AZackery, and sorry about a late reply. Yes you are correct. Fat loss is what I was referring to, although I simply stated it as pounds lost for simplicity reasons. I track inches, pounds, as well as body fat %, and there were significant differenecs in all measuements. Since muscle is much more dense, it weighs…

  • Um, have you people never eaten a peach?! It's the same thing! Just scrub it well first. If you're not eating the skin, you're missing out on most of the health benefits of kiwi!

  • Ditto this. Search Hal Higdon 1/2 Marathon training programs. They look similar to this. Also, don't stress if you can't easily get to a pool/gym for cross training. Just buy some light hand weights and do some light and fast lifting 3 to 4 times a week. Jackie Warner has a great "power circuit training" dvd that you can…

  • Get on dailymile.com or mapmyruns.com to create a route where you are. That way you know your exact distance. Clock your runs with a wristwatch. Figure your mile pace after each run, and under Cardio Exercise on MFP you can log the amount of time you ran at that pace. For example, today I ran 3 miles in about 30 minutes so…

  • Carpet is fine as long as your room is large enough to jump around and lay down (sit ups/push ups). The shred is great for toning but I would add some extra cardio with it (walking/jogging) if you want to lose weight as well. Good luck!

  • Either could mean a solution for the pain. Try finding a running store with a free "gait analysis". They'll determine your exact shoe size and where you carry your weight on your feet as well as if you have an over pronation or under pronation (roll your feet out or in) while you run. From there they'll be able to suggest…
