What are you detoxing from that your kidneys liver and bowel doesn't normally get rid of? Just eat nomally Just some useful links for you http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/1159755-looking-for-a-detox-cleanse…

To me it just sounds like you've got shoes that don't fit you properly. Modern running shoes really shouldn't need wearing in as modern materials are normally already sufficiently flexible. I would suggest finding a specialist store take your orthotics with you and try some shoes on. Has the orthotic been specially fitted…

Damm I thought this would be thread about Giants

The Pink one ;-)

I focus on Cake

The ops diary is interesting. Obviously the definition of clean is rather broad. And includes processed deli turkey string cheese ........

Born again clean eaters ....... Need I say more

My question is why the hell did you bother going to McDonald just for that? It's like going to buy a car and coming out with a Tricycle.

I can't actually think of anything bar I've now got an addiction to running shoes

Consistently and accurately weigh measure and log your food so you know what your eating which you're not doing now . Over the past few days one is logged and that has questionable entries. Have a look at the link it will help with accurate logging…

Is this another word for Farting!

As a 25 year old man you need to take responsibility. Your mother is not force feeding you. You have the power to say no and explain to her why. Rather than blame your mother you make the choice do you want to lose weight? If the answer is yes you know what to do. If though you don't carry on but it's not your mother's…

I expect my friends to worship an idol of my likeness at least 6 times a day. Flagellate themselves prone daily with wet birch twigs and supply me with cake.

The best tip is don't over complicate it. You don't need special foods or special diets. You don't need to eliminate foods. You just need to eat at a calorie deficit. Good luck and have a look at this thread…

What came first the Chicken or the Egg?

Your post screams that you need to speak to someone about your relationship with food. I would go and see an appropriate medical professional to discuss this

Yes you'll lose weight. You'll also lose a lot of muscle. Most likely end up pretty miserable and in reality put the weight back on eventually. The idea is to lose weight in a sustainable and retain as much muscle as you can (muscle is good it burns calories). You may be feeling OK now but that wont last. As others have…

Unless you have medical issues. Sugar is really not an issue and the MFP ones are too low anyway so I wouldn't worry about that.. Rather than have some dodgy low calorie cake personally I'd rather have a smaller piece of a good cake. You will have many birthdays and celebrations throughout your life so you need to learn to…

^^^^^ This Some days I run long, some days I run short, Some days I run trails some days I run roads, Some days I run with my dog some days I run alone. Some days I run hills some days I run intervals. Everyday I run because I like to run....... IMO sometimes people over think it

Are you restricting the types of food to much? People frequently go on 'diets' and cut foods they deem bad for them. You won't have put 40Kg by eating 1200 calories. If youre 40 kg (according to your ticker) over weight i can guarantee that you can eat far more than 1200 and still lose weight. You need to eat sufficient…

As others have said water and electrolytes sound the most obvious. As for your joints there is no scientific evidence that glucosamine actually does anything for joints. Lots of people swear by it but the science doesn't back it up. If your getting joint pain I would have a look at the usual suspects which is your shoes…

I would say the problem is you're weighing yourself to often and getting obsessed over a number that will naturally vary a few pounds hour to hour

If you're taller it makes it easier to get things off high shelves

I was 280 pounds when I started. Yes if you leap straight into anything you'll injure yourself . Start with walking once you can walk for 30 minutes at a brisk pace then introduce some gentle running intervals. Build up slowly. You'll find that those that have had problems are the ones who go to fast. Nothing is 100%…

To me that really doesn't sound like much food to me. Maybe that's why your getting the cravings?. As you say you don't count calories it's difficult to give specifics I would though recommend at least counting them short term so you can find out how much you are really eating

I always wonder what miracle effect people are expecting from replacing one zero or near zero soda drink with another zero calorie drink called something else?

It's a supplement like any other supplement. If you're struggling to get sufficient protein via normal food it's useful. If you're getting plenty of protein via food there's no reason for it

The best thing I ever did for my back was lose weight. I have a back that's been abused from a mixture of Rugby scrums and working in a Hospital environment moving patients. My best investment was a memory foam mattress along with a contoured pillow. As a person who used to always sleep with multiple pillows getting used…

I've never got this idea that people seem to have that one food should provide an inordinate amount of nutrition. Unless you're only eating one food all the time (which most normal people don't) its a pretty silly argument. Eat a balanced diet and you'll get the nutrition you need. As for Quinoa or Couscous eat the one you…

I run because I can . My wife is disabled and Bedbound. I run because I can everytime I go out of the door I give thanks that I can. Occasionally I feel guilty leaving someone who has been stuck in a bed for years to run. She tells me I am running for her. My stories and Pictures of my runs inspire her and keep her going,…
