Ah...nup! You'd beat the crap out of me blurodriguez7!

Always happy to have new friends on MFP :smiley:

About Time.

No problem. I'd love to have someone hold me accountable too!

It really depends. I use the IIYFM calculator and it recommends that I eat 1515 calories a day with 5 days of exercise a week. My calories deficit has been between 436-1244 this week. I've had a back injury in the last half of the week and that has limited the exercise I could do.

I'm looking for mates too! :)

I used to A LOT. It hurt like crazy, but the other day I looked at a photo of him and I though "what the heck was I thinking?!"

Originally from Brisbane, Australia and now I live in LA.

Try using the IIFYM calculator to see how many calories you should be consuming a week based on the activity you are doing.

I'm in love with my About Time. I use the unflavored, but there are many different options. They also have a vegan protein too.

I've just started. I'm a macro and clean eating fan. Feel free to add me B)

Here in the warm Valley :)

cool, thanks guys. Fish is pretty expensive over here so I don't really get to eat it more than once a couple weeks. I have been taking fish oil tablets too, but I'm not sure how much I should be taking. I take 3 tablets a day but I've heard that some runners do take more.

cool, thanks for the tip.

Hi guys, the reason I ask is that I love my Mizuno Wave Riders but find them to be to heavy for shorter treadmill running. Is there a shoes that people use for short treadmill running? My feet tend to roll in.

I wear Mizuno Wave Rider for running. I would be interested if anyone could suggest a lighter shoe for treadmill running though.

Hi, what kind of exercise and goals are you wanting to get to? I eat 1800 cals but I do a lot of distance running. Before I was running, I was on a high protein and lower carb diet and found I got great results (that was about 1200-1300 cals depending on exercise (HIIT required more cals and basic yoga, pilates and core…

Hi I'm Catie from Brisbane Australia. I am currently training for my first 1/2 marathon after completing a 10k last year. :D

Do the compression socks help with calf muscle tension?

Sure am! I am now in my second week of training. It is really hard but I love it! Can't wait for the race next year in Brisbane.

ok, thanks for the tip. I will check it out!

sorry 3rd of August I meant.

I'm living in between two places at the moment in West End and Ipswich. I'm running around Southbank and at Robelle Park at the moment. I'm looking at doing the brisbane marathon festival 4th August.

Thanks for the tips guys. My socks are cotton so that would explain things!

Thanks for the input everyone. I just got my second. The first I got was a tramp stamp and healed without a problem. The new one is on my ribs...planning of giving core work a miss for the rest of the week but hope to do some bike, tready and eliptical trainer instead but on a lower intensity. I'll keep you guys posted on…
