6 miles today hills and straightaways. I have new shoes I've only ran in about 4-5 times. About mile 4 my foot went numb. The entire foot!!!! I never stop. Today I stopped, flexed my foot to "wake" it up and continued it started again about mile 5, kept going. SOOOOO......... I took my shoes to the running store so they…

I cook a whole chicken with 1/4 cup of liquid smoke(you can get at the grocery store with the hot sauces. marinades, etc) on low for 6 hours (???). That's it nothing else, no salt, pepper, nothing. It tastes like smoked chicken. It is so tender it literally falls off the bones. Sometimes I take all the shredded pieces and…

I make these with the chocolate graham crackers, pretty good for a chocolate fix

I don't eat an hour before I'm going to run, I usually run in the morning so I just don't eat breakfast until after my run. I don't eat prior to running b/c I get shin splits at the drop of a hat, bad shoes, too much food, too windy, too cold-I'm ah high maintenence runner:laugh: Just went to a seminar last night w/Jeff…

I log my food in BEFORE I eat it. I am ALWAYS logged on to MFP, hence why I am on here all of the time:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: If I'm not at home I write it down on a piece of paper before any food passes thru my lips. Pain in the butt? Yes, however it slows me down and makes me more aware before I overeat something. You…

I looked at your profile and it says you have only a few to lose. The last few are the most difficult. I don't have a HRM. If you get one make sure it's a GOOD one. I bought a cheap-o one at Wally World and I took it back the same day(you get waht you pay for:wink: ). I have decide to wait on the Polar one I want. The…

OH PUHLEEZ!!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Those are the silly boys that I'm talking about, they are ALL talk (Friends and I call them 1 pump chumps:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: ) but when it comes down to it you only burn like 40 calories, as I mentioned 4 minutes start to finish.....:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

NICE!!!!:bigsmile: Good for you:smile: :flowerforyou:

I don't know how it is in Nevada, but in MO if you are a first time offender(state offenses) you typically only have to serve 15% of your sentence(depending on the severity of the crime/charge, etc). 15% of 2 years is about 3 1/2 months, plus if he did any county jail time prior to his conviction he will most likely get…

I told you girl about the arm pumping thing in the other post with the jedi mind tricks :laugh:

AYE AYE! Sorry I didn't mention in my post, I thought it went w/out saying-my bad:blushing: :smile:

I think once you get used to it you will like it. It tastes like milk, it's just not so thick(which I can't stand thick milk, makes me gag). It's just the getting used to b/c it is noticably not as heavy as whayt you are used to. It's milk, my kids drink the skim milk plus and have since they were like 3 y/o.

All I have ever drank for the last 20 years is skim milk. I can't drink anything higher b/c it is too thick. Alot of people who try skim for the first time say it's too waterey, so you might want to try mixing your milk and the skim milk and gradually add more skim than your milk to get used to it. I like the skim milk…

My arm fat is in the back/underside of my arm, so I do alot of overhead extensions with a 15 lb. dumbbell, kickbacks with an 8 lb. dumbbell and bench dips

Today I've been trying to drink TONS of water, I ran which made me feel a little better. I'm going to sleep and I'll get up tomorrow and run and try to pretend today never happened:laugh: Eat more veggies than usual:bigsmile:

A healthy version of Creamed Spinach, YAY ME!!!! I always forget about the laughing cow cheese when I'm at the store:grumble:

Another thread about Splenda/Sugar:smile: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/13269-splenda-sugar-question

It really wouldn't be a big deal, except yesterday was my cheat day. My son's bday was yesterday and he had his party at this palce called Incredible PIzza, it's like Chuck E CHeese on steroids:laugh: It has an indoor go cart track and a buffet(not just pizza-pasta, cinnamon rolls,cookies, ice cream, veggies soaked in…

I was reading what you were and thinking, "Doesn't sound weird to me":laugh: :laugh: :laugh: So I guess I'm a high maintenence eater too(LOVE THAT!!!!:laugh: ) I was brought up in home where exercise and nutrition were not even on the radar. My mom is from the south so you can imagine the bad food(Butter, fried, heavy…

OMG 370 calories for 1 pc. of chicken :noway: !!!! CRAP!!!! Looks like I'm running alot more than I thought!!!! Geez Louise!!! Curse you KFC!!!!!:grumble:

Typically i don't care what others think, but this is my MOM:laugh: The woman who brought me into the world, sacrificed for me, grandmother of my children, blah, blah, blah,:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: I guess i didn't want to be the arsehole daughter on Mother's Day:smile:

I called my mom to ask what time I should go over to her house to give her a mother's day present. She said she'd call after church. She called and said she wanted to have me over for lunch so I wouldn't have to cook. (How nice right?). I get there and she's bought the biggest bucket meal from KFC:sick: I do not eat that…

I'm not sure if standing in one place vs sitting in one place would make a difference, except it might add to the possibility of vericose veins later in life:frown: If you get an hour for lunch maybe you could walk 40 minutes of it and eat the other 20 to help get ya movin:smile: :flowerforyou:

I like the Salad Spritzers French Flair. I get tired of the italian/vinagarettes all the time, this kind of tastes like a "real"dressing, they just came out with Ranch, I'm not a huge fan of it though.

I'm waiting for it to warm up, I am wuss when it comes to the cold(anything under 60 is cold in my book:tongue: ). It got down in the mid 40's last night:frown: Right now 49 and winds at 25 mph...BRRRR. I'll run much later after the sun has been out for awhile:blushing: :happy: Happy Mom's Day!!! I told my kids all I…

This is going to sound silly, but it might be indigestion. The first time I atw something totally awful after i was eating clean I had horrible pains, so bad i went to urgent care. I thought I had ulcers, a ruptured appendix or gall bladder issues for sure. I felt so idiotic when they gave me some pepcid ac and a gas x…

Got this from a friend who works for "the Running store" in my area, thought it might be helpful :flowerforyou: and at the end there are a couple of experts and their books, one is affiliated with the Chi town marathon.:smile: So you want to run a marathon? Here are a few necessities before you start. Your weekly mileage…

My people's choice is 126. Then the other was a range of 114-150????? That's a pretty big range. It was still fun. I love calculators, quizzes, etc:smile:

AAWWHH!!! Is he sweet or what??? You better copy this for your momma so she'll know she raised you right.:flowerforyou:
