  • Add those same ingredients in a burrito and you've got almost a 1000 calorie meal (per the Chipotle nutrition calculator). Goes to what everyone else has been saying about the darn tortillas being a real calorie budget buster!
  • Chipotle burritos - tasty and made from quality ingredients - but still over 1000 calories WITHOUT the addition of meat. It pains me to only be able to eat half and getting it in a bowl is just not as fun. Also, I think anyone that has ever tracked what they put in a salad from a salad bar gets the shock of a lifetime.
  • I am in the US but it looks like the company I got my wetsuit from also sells in the UK (at least according to a quick Google search). They are XTerra wetsuits. I bought one with no sleeves because when I tried out one with sleeves at a swim clinic, it felt like it was harder to move my arms which tends to be a helpful…
  • Good for you! Registering for my first sprint tri is what gave me the motivation to workout and lose 30+ pounds in 2012. The variety in the workouts helped me to not be bored. I didn't race at all last year and the weight is back now so I am registered for another and getting back on track. It sounds like you are already…

  • I'm in again. Fell short in May but joined mid-month so I'll cut myself some slack. Going with the traditional goal. Have a vacation in June but the rental comes with bikes so I hope to get in some good mileage! Have my second open water swim clinic at the end of the month and am hoping for improvement for last time. Love…

  • A little late to the game on this, jumping in mid-month but I just saw this challenge today. I am training for my first sprint distance tri in July so this challenge is perfect. Had I set my goals at the start of the month, I would have gone with the traditional goals. That said, looking at my training log thus far, here…
  • Adora Calcium Supplements are tasty! Their tag line is "crave your calcium." They are chocolate calcium disks made with premium all-natural chocolate. Not at all chalky like viactiv or similar calcium chews (which I was taking before the nutritionist at the gym let me taste test these). It is just like eating a mini…
  • As a former Weight Watchers member, I can speak to this a bit. If accountability is what you need, weigh-ins are great. However, I was discouraged by the desire of WW to sell their products (which, by the way are not the best if you are trying to eat a "cleaner" diet) and the focus on family issues at meetings (I am…
