They are talking about Hyponatremia - Google it as it is an interesting read. Hyponatremia can kill and ironically, I used to have somebody on my buddy list on MFP that actually did get that, it was fortunate she visited her GP and he diagnosed her with the condition and sorted her out otherwise she would not be here today.

I cant' find a particular thread I replied to a few days back, I give up now, these boards are nowhere near as efficient as they used to be, they really aren't.

Perhaps the advice she is being given isn't any good for her. I hope that the Mods on this site use their commonsense and see that this thread is not "spam", regardless as to how some, both on this thread and those that have flagged it but not commented on it, see it. I have seen some rubbish on these forums, believe me,…

Pain in the butt this is, isn't it :(. I tried to post this question in tech help section, but it said I did not have permission to post there, WTF?!?!?!

I just run, I like running. I train four times per week, around 25-30 miles per week

No don't add anything, I was actually putting my own opinion, is that okay? To the OP, that is a damn shame re the cancellation, being a cynical so-and-so, I reckon they reneged on that deal because there was an influx of orders. If that had been in a store, not sure about the US, but in the UK, that price would have had…

Nope, I just do my running, it keeps my weight down and my fat % good.

Unless you do steady state cardio, then they are far from useless.

edited to remove as I have already replied to this thread pmsl.

I have three pairs that I rotate and I keep track of the amount of mileage on each pair and replace when they have completed 500 miles. I also have a separate pair for racing (racing flats), they are lighter than my training shoes. I originally bought more than one pair so that if one pair got wet (training in the rain), I…

I run because, quite simply, I enjoy it. Fun vid.

Unfortunately, as good an excuse for not measuring and weighing one's food is this ^ NOT measuring and weighing could have negative results for many trying to lose weight. Just weigh and measure food if counting calories, otherwise guesswork will ensue and that is a waste of time.

Most of the nutrients are in the yolk, personally, I would never eat just the whites.

She'll need to ramp up the mileage because 3 to 5 miles per session is not enough if intending to run two HMs in two days. In fact, 3 to 5 miles per session is not enough if running just one HM, let alone two. Trouble is, she cannot ramp up the mileage too quickly because then there is the risk of injury. Therefore, all…

No probs, false. I get the message.

Dunno, don't really care. Have a nice day now.

Yes I wonder that.

because unless a person does roughly the same thing day in, day out, with exercise roughly the same, with around the same amount of calories being used daily, it is impossible to ever calculate accurately, therefore, it is oveerrated.

Not words for me, but the following phrase and acronym: Starvation mode TDEE

Well done OP!! My PB is 25:14.

OP I do not understand what you mean by "when will my metabolism kick in?" - your metabolism is always working, if it didn't you would die. It is guaranteed, even if you do not think so, that you are eating more calories than you are using up.

When I had a Polar FT4 I took it along to a Jewellers' shop in the high street and asked him to change the battery in both the watch and the receiver, which he did. They have the correct tools for removing the backs without damage. I think it cost about £8 for the pair of batteries replacement.

A full marathon is a hell of a lot more than 10 miles and to ask if you will be able to knock one whole minute off per mile and continue for the full 26.2 miles at that pace, is asking too much IMO. You are actually talking about running two and a half times the distance which is 250% EXTRA for a 12% reduction in time -…

I love running and even if I ever reach my goal weight, I will still continue to do running.

I don't put artificial flavourings on my food, I just like to eat what I like to eat :)

Eating real food will always work for everybody, all food is real, whether you make it yourself or not.

So sue me.

Real food?? Nope cant help, I only eat plastic and metal products. :huh:

It is far from absurd, my running shoes are one size larger than my normal shoes and no, my normal shoes are not too small. It depends on the runner and how much their feet may swell during a run - especially a long run. Imagine running, say a half marathon, when suddenly halfway through the race, your feet have swollen…
