I am so sorry about your sledding accident. I agree with the other feedback here. Maybe press pause on your weight loss journey and focus on healing your body. I broke my foot last March and it was a long slow recovery. I’m still trying to lose the weight I gained but I can finally run again and it feels so good to be able…

I 2nd middlehaitch’s suggestion about checking in with your doc about diastasis recti. My abs separated after my twins and I worked with someone to help bring them back together. Crunches, sit-ups and similar ab exercises make the separation worse. Take it easy and enjoy your babies.

I loved that workout, I also had a step video of Cher's, but Cindy's was a good one. Thanks for the YouTube tip, I'm going to try and find it.

Training for a marathon is like a job. I did mine about 10 years ago before husband and kids, actually hubby and I were newly dating at the time of my last one, and even then I felt like my whole life was running. We have 3 little kids now and I don't feel like I have the time to dedicate to training for a full. I'm all…

Name: Hilary Hubby/Partner: Brandon How many kids do you have: 2-year old twins Due Date: April 5, 2013 Do you know the gender: Nope Have you picked out the baby's name: We have a girl name that we like but are still kicking around boy names. It's still very early and we may change our mind about the girl name too though.…

I read that Digifit HRM only works w the digifit app. The fact that it's not compatible with any other apps is a bummer to me as I like runkeeper to track my workouts.

I'll be curious to see what the responses are about this as I am looking for the same thing. The research I've done leads me to the Wahoo Fitness HRM but I'm interested to see what ppl here have to sa about it.

Yup, I also run for wine.

My gym has an awesome kid zone. I take my twins to the gym tues/thurs and the kids love playing in there while I'm working out.

I make the Kashi blueberry waffles w a pat of butter and strawberry jam...yummy. My twins love it too.

I think it depends on your acitivty. Mine is set for 1600, I'm 5" 3.5" and am 134 lb. I run 3x/week and lift 2x/week and am SAHM to my 2 year-old twins. I've been losing about .6/week consistently and I don't feel deprived. I was trying to work it at 1200 cals and was feeling hungry, tired, grumpy and had a hard time not…

I don't have any advice but just wanted to say I think it's an awesome way to connect w your daughter now and maintain that connection through teenage years. I'm a runner and my daughter, and son, is/are 2 years and I would love to run w them one day. Way to go momma!

I have a Grande Pike's, black, it's like 3 calories.

I've used it once. I was so sore the next day. I haven't done it again bc I lift at the gym twice a week and only did the nike app bc I missed a gym day that week. Maybe I'll add a third day to my weight training. Next time I do it I will deff do it on the first floor. I was upstairs when I tried it last time and felt like…

Not a competitive swimmer but a few years ago I had to take a break from running bc of my knees and did some swimming instead. I was bummed bc I felt like I couldn't possibly be getting as good a workout as when I was running. I started wearing my HRM and I'll be damned if I didn't have the same calorie burn after a 1 mile…

Did you go? I didn't want to go today either; I had very low energy but I forced myself to go anyway. I decided to start w weights instead of my run bc I didn't know if I'd have the energy for weights after running 4 miles. I felt great after weights, but not great enough for a run, I did 30 min on the elliptical instead.…

Same here. I also have 2-year old twins and they are great eaters, thank god. Today their lunch was tomatoes w hummus in a whole wheat pita, turkey breast, grapes, cheese and avocado. They never leave any cheese or avocado, the two most fattening things, but what they do leave usually is something I'd have for lunch too so…

I've been slowly upping my calories from 1200 a few weeks ago to 1600 now. The calculation on fat 2 fit has my daily calories at just over 2000, which seems crazy high. I like your approach, a little at a time, I'm not sure how I feel about eating 2000 calories a day. Like you said, it goes against everything I thought I…

The Black Keys new album El Camino is awesome for working out. I just set a pr for my 4 mile run listening to it, 35:00

Can you get some time w a trainer to show you some exercises you can do w free weights? That way you have a plan when you get there and maybe less anxiety provoking.

Congrats on quitting. I smoked for just about 10 years too and I know it's not easy. Keep up the awesome work and yes, get a massage!

This is me. I have 23-month old twins and once they're down momma needs some vino. I complimented another twin mommy on looking fab and asked her to tell me her secret. She said I wouldn't like the answer, I thought she was going to say tummy tuck, but she laughed and told me she gave up wine during the week. It is a lot…

I use the runkeeper app on my phone and track my mileage that way. I don't always run w my twins in the jogger so I like to be able to track my workouts when I'm not pushing them.

When I was training for my second marathon I came across an article on breathing that suggested inhaling for three strides and exhaling for two. Sometimes w/o even realizing it you push off harder on an inhale and if you breath in for two and out for two it's an even number and you're always powering through on the same…

What are you looking for specifically, are you looking for clothes for exercising outdoors? I have a pair of lined UA running pants that I wear during the winter. I've been able to get out in 30ish degree mornings and be fine. I wear a lululemon jacket to run in on cold mornings too. We're headed into spring now and I was…
