Thanks aldousmom! Great information!

Thanks all! These are helpful. This is a 50 K trail race (5 mile loops with 2 aid stations). There will be copious food (bananas, PBJ, chips, gels, etc). I am not committed to completing it. I will be happy to complete 4 loops. However if my body holds up I would be thrilled to go longer. Thus the confusion about…

As the wife of someone who is overweight I can't tell you how much heartache I experience about my husband's weight gain.

Um-YES

So I'm wondering if the shake weight or proffering sexual favors is basically the answer to basically all the problems in a marriage?

Yes I'm actually having a hard time enjoying my birthday thinking about this. So much heartbreak and pain-the tragedy is immense.

It's my birthday and i'm going out for Indian food!!

I suggest you check out the organization to support sex and love addicts. Ask him to ask himself the questions on that site and see if he sees himself. If he sees his self destructive behavior as part of a pattern of addiction had can resolve to change it uses a 12 step program that involves a commitment that would be…

That is EPIC! You look fantastic-congratulations to you! Now take one with the pack while you're hiking :) Or out running!

Small amount of food and also drink some water before starting-room temp and keep water with your during workout. I used to get nausea with my morning workout and then it subsided so I hope yours does to!
