I think this might be onto something. 10 lbs in 5 months is nothing... and you've been together for four years... I agree that the issue is NOTHING to do with how you look but something that's wrong with him. Perhaps he's looking for some self-validation to feel that someone else finds him attractive? Or is just a…

If you work in an office building, can you print at a printer that's further away from you? And when you grocery shop, if you have the time, you can make your shopping really inefficient so you have to walk from one side of the store to another - like, get milk, and then walk over to the produce section, and then walk to…

Bahahahahahha! I can't bring myself to write "spoonfuls of peanut butter out of the jar", "old cookie out of gym bag", or "cake at work that was sort of sticking out of a trash can. Still good".

Our local bakery was making these AMAZING large, sweet lavender sandwich cookies. I bought one for my husband. He ate half of it and then said he left the other half in his gym bag and then forgot about it. Soooo I fished the cookie (wrapped in paper!) out of his nasty old gym clothes and ate it :smile:

You guuuuyyyysssss... if you don't want to buy what he's selling (ha!), then don't PM him. You don't have to poke holes in his success or try to bring him down! I'm curious what your 30 minute cardio is - some kind of HITT training like Insanity?

Hi Misty! I have a similar problem and I found subsituting a few snacks made all the difference. Before I was having granola for breakfast with some fruit and milk, and now I'm having eggs and vegetables (heated up in the microwave!) and that cuts down on all that sugar from that meal. And instead of my 10 AM snack being a…

I think it depends on the person and what it is... portion control is amazing! I learned that if I want to have my diet goals intact, I can't have bags of trail mix lying around : ( I "cheat" all the time when I know I'm going for a long run or have worked enough calories off that I can have a treat, but certain things are…

Remember, FitBit isn't perfect either. It only works for exercises like walking, and I know it's not accurate for running. Apparently I'm too fast for FitBit to keep up with! If you wear it on a run or a bikeride, the data isn't going to be right.

Hi there! Hard core, long time distance runner here. Everyone is right in that you want to start slow... like, if you want to improve each week, go up 10% either with time or with distance, but don't do both. And that seems AGONIZINGLY slow. If I were a brandnew runner, I'd start by trying to walk two minutes, run two…

Heeeeey! I'm a good friend to add if you're looking for a workout-aholic that loves to cook. I need someone to keep me motivated on days when I just don't want to work out and want to eat an entire container of chocolate chips instead! FRIEND ME!!!

and the crowds were ballistic

Sounds like some good fast twitch! Tom, if you want a really good workout for both sprints and distance running, do a step aerobics class. Not even joking. It's 2.5 miles of sprints within an hour... and you're moving the whole time so you're getting some distance training in there too. Good stuff! Off to the weight room,…

Hi Tom, Maybe this is an unpopular opinion, but I'd argue you're right! Cardio training is getting your heart to pump faster than what it does when you sit on the couch. Your heart doesn't know if you are deadlifting, swimming, or dancing. It just knows it's working hard. And like any muscle, the harder it works, the…

I logged onto today to look for the same thing! I'm trying to lose five pounds to get back to my running weight and it's my afternoon/evening snacking that kill me when I'm at home. This way I have someone to shame me when they see me eating too much junkfood : ) - Crystal
