I got it right, but I have studied that menu too many times to get it wrong.

Florida here - born and raised and I still loathe the summer months for this reason! I've noticed the hour before it is dark outside is the best time. But I'm only at the beginning of the summer.

Well, genetics always win over lifestyle, in the end.

No. They're always an alcoholic - dependency is always there - even if they don't drink anymore. That's where the saying about obesity Is - you need food to survive. You can safely stop using crack and alcohol but can't stop eating; have to develop a new , healthy relationship with food. There is no safe, healthy way to…

What? No,no,no. The term "link" here clearly means "correlation" and no *kitten*, they're correlated - the rise in diabetes and heart disease is from obesity, period.

Not in Florida where it's 90F by 9AM! :p (the heat just wears me out) (means my runs are in the evening& I have a much smaller window of time to accomplish it)

that's good news. still, somehow there was a deficit to lose weight. The question is really if a higher metobolic rate exists somehow. since "energy cannot be created nor destroyed", if you were losing wt with said higher metobolic rate , you were not consuming enough calories to maintain in that state. That is not the…

Have you ever thought about switching to TDEE? I run similar amount as you &am considering switching but Im almost obsessed with the loads of extra calories i can use during the week if I keep the regular formula

Something is different; something changed. It's physiologically impossible to lose weight without a calorie deficit - there's something missing here. When people truly do not change a thing and start to lose weight, it's concerning and this like hyperthyroidism and cancer must be looked into.

Have you tried almond milk? I prefer it with oatmeal specifically based solely on flavor. Delicious.

I just made this up for dinner today- Sausage and Pepper Pasta. Ingredients 1 box Ancient Grains Penne pasta 28 oz, Jennie-o Lean Turkey Kielbasa 1 large bell pepper Yellow 1 Large Orange Bell Pepper 1 large Green Bell Pepper 1 large red Bell Pepper 0.50 cup(s), White Flour 1 tbsp, Butter Salted 0.50 cup, Cheese -…

Set Point is a theory; one I don't believe. People regain weight because they aren't keeping lifestyle change and slip into old habits.

Yes, it's on the ingredient label, but that doesn't tell how much of the listed carbohydrates are from added sugars, so that's the difference on the new labels.

Its the obesity & lack of exercise as the cause of Type 2 Diabetes .Carbs & protein have the exact same caloric value, gram-for-gram. Fat has the most in this respect. Maybe what you mean to say is that many of the traditional foods in our society have so many carbs (and are mostly carbs) that they end up being very high…

Thanks for the reply. I wish there was an indoor track here - there's just not. I'm going to have to do more night runs or something.

Its about balance. I see nothing wrong with balancing out running (high calorie burn) with eating more. You need fuel for it, after all. So long as its not a daily food splurge . Maintenance is simple finding balance in energy intake and expenditure. After losing 98 lbs and taking up running, I joke about how I run so I…

I mean, clearly you're real winner with that fruit cake.

I have high archs. I love my Saucony pair.

FR 220. Had it since end of November. 1. Distance 2. Total Time 3. Pace I don't use the second screen. I know what button to press, though, if I want to check a lap. And sometimes, on a new course, I'll log onto the Connect app and look at elevation, cadence, etc. I stopped using the HR monitor after the first month. I…

Hate to say it buddy, but if you haven't shat in THAT long, you got more problems than choosing the right detox.

I'd say every moment of the day, if I remember correctly. Last I checked, my liver and kidneys were still in working order. Dunno, though.

They weight the same. Muscle has more mass per surface area.

I know they are being monitored by medical , but I always wonder how these people don't go into rhabdomyolysis.

I'm all for it if it opens people's eyes. I know a lot of people will look at this and say "man, I never thought of it like that" or "wow, I never realized this". It puts it into a concise and simple picture for people. It's not villianizing sugar itself but rather showing the effect of too much of it.

I can wear my sons' t shirts. They are 9 1/2 . Wearing one right now lol

Eating 3/4 of a side of onion rings at a restaurant for lunch and - although it's not a victory - I felt sick to my stomach for hours afterward. just not "used" to it anymore. Previously I loved off of glutinous fried high calorie foods.

I have a lot lately. Chatting with a stranger and the topic of me being a mom to twins (+ a younger daughter too) and the other person says, "you don't look like you could have had twins!". Showing someone a "before" picture who has never known the "old" me and they comment "I would never guess you were heavy before and I…

I've never seen any evidence based studies (would like to) but have seen statistics that say the majority (maybe 80%?) Of people who lose weight will regain within 5 years. That's a generalized statement that doesn't take into account rate of loss, amount of loss, etc. Would love to see a real study. Rapid weight loss is…

I'm the same way. The most I've run is 10 miles and by the last mile I had a headache (salt/water /fuel loss) but even drinking water will make me cramp.

Yes. It can lead to a whole heap of medical problems even in the future that she may not have yet. Heart problems including. Definitely follow closely with a physician.
