1,550 calories isn't much for working out six days per week; I'd re-evaluate your activity level and see it you should be eating more. A few rest days might help, too. I run a lot and when I start to feel fatigue like you describe, a few days rest always helps. This totally sounds like overuse: "I feel as though I can do…

I hate the smell of my stinky running clothes, but I hate the smell of vinegar even more. Can you smell the vinegar while the clothes are washing or drying? My washer is upstairs in the main hallway, so don't want the whole house to smell like vinegar.

I lost 80 pounds about 6 years ago. I still have a lot of loose skin, but it improves a little each year.

My shortest runs are 6 or 7 miles so I try not to lift and run on the same day. I prefer to lift then do some low impact cardio in the gym. If I have to do both on the same day, I lift first then run, but the run is always slower and somewhat miserable when I do it that way.

yep.

Sriracha - and I put it on everything.

Does anyone else think OP is a troll? Come on, 5 pages in and he's still insisting that a juice fast is going to change his life? No one could be this dense.

When my kids were little, I'd go to the gym in the evening after they went to bed and their dad stayed home with them. These days, I'm sometimes at the gym at 5:00 am, running at lunch, or yoga at 8:00 at night - wherever there's an opening I can find. When you have free time, you can choose to lay down or you can choose…

I know he looks good walking down the beach.

maybe. I can't see her arms. I would be fun to try.

If it's clear that the trophy was just for participation, why not? The kids put in time and effort in practices and games, learn to be contributors on a team, and often give it their all. No problem if they walk away with a little reminder of their time on the team. I think most kids know the difference between a…

oh yeah.

ok, but the duck stays home.

now I am....with at name like Dr Fever how could I not?

This exactly. If you want to work out enough, you will find the time.

It's sometimes hard to not compare yourself to others. Our bodies are different. It took me a very very long time to realize that I don't look like the other lithe girls in yoga or my ideal vision of a "fit" person - my shoulders are broad, my arms are big, I have no waist, and no matter what I do, my legs are big. I can't…

For me, about 20 - 25 grams of protein right after my run kills the munchies.

Matt Fitzgerald's "Racing Weight" is a great book which can help you balance your running goals with moderate weight loss at the same time. If you love to run and want to lose weight without burning out - and you can if running creates too great a calorie deficit and you feel tired all the time - I highly recommend the…

I don't take any water for runs less than 10 miles. For 10 - 20 miles, I take a 10 oz bottle, which I can refill. For +20 miles, I break out the hydration pack. I don't generally carry gels for runs less than a half marathon. If I'm doing 15 miles or more, I take one gel after the first hour and one every 4 miles after…

I'm 48 an working on the same. I really enjoy running, so that keeps the weight off pretty well, but have been trying to build a little more muscle. I go to some core workout classes at the Y - they are really fun and keep me motivated. I've been a little intimidated to use the weights at the gym, but know I need to get…

Look up the vegan version on the Happy Herbivore website. I've made it a few times. Vegan ground sausage (Gimme Lean) is pretty decent, soy milk replaces higher calorie ingredients in the gravy, and low fat biscuits. (sigh. I know it isn't the real stuff, but it isn't bad and has way less calories.)

I keep all my kids' junk food in one cabinet so that it's out of sight. It's up to me to stay out of it.

I'm a long distance runner. You can add me. There's also a long distance running group on MFP.
