  • That sounds like you need to be properly fitted at a running store for the right shoes. Your wear is uneven, so you are not wearing the correct shoe for your stride.
  • Why would you pay that kind of money for Brooks for walking? I wear Brooks Launch for running on the road and Brooks Cascadia for running off road. My tread usually lasts to about 350 miles. I've never had a pair wear out that quickly. I'm on my 6th set of Brooks shoes (I usually keep 2 pairs to trade off; this is better…
  • I'm hyper, I like to think I'm fast when I run and I am really into Fitness and my name is Vanessa; some friends/family call me Ness, so HypersonicFitNess :bigsmile:
  • Fantabulous job! Very inspiring!! Just shows you what one can do....any ONE!! :happy:
  • YOu need to find a local running group to run with then. Also, nothing wrong with carrying some pepper spray with you when you run. The guardian angel is very small, light weight and easy to use. Also, if you can find someone to BIKE with you while you run. You aren't running for that long...when I was in Northern Virginia…
  • I will say some woman (and not all woman are catty) will not comment on someone's weight loss, even their "so called" friends out of jealousy. Yes, the BIG MEAN GREEN, it's usually the culprit...I say toss the friend, she's not a true friend. And know that you are successful and try not to "need" affirmations from others.…
  • I keep an open diary because it helps me be a better role model to others and therefore keeps me accountable.
  • Hal Higdon and Jeff Galloway are both good; but also I would recommend the book, Road Racing for Serious Runners and it is very inexpensive on Amazon or online anywhere. ~ $12 US http://www.amazon.com/books/dp/0880118180
  • It really depends on how far/long you are running and the heat outside. I, myself am a salty sweater and require replacing my electrolytes when running long, so If I'm going out to run longer than an hour I'm taking 100% pure coconut water to replace my electrolytes the natural way. Anything less than an hour I take…
  • True eating too many calories is what causes the weight gain, not sugar specifically however, sugar does (specifically simply carbs) spikes your blood sugar and then it drops (for most people/not all...I am one of most) and then I am hungry again almost immediately making me consume more calories then if I would have had…
  • Look up Jeff Galloway; he has some interval "albums" you can purchase on iTunes, tells you when to run, when to walk. Has a warm up and cool down. I bought the 5K training 3:1 after I had a knee (over use) injury and had to start my running program back, slowly. Motion Traxx has a lot of different play lists that you can…
  • I'll give it a shot; thank you for the advice. And yes I'm sure I was going full throttle and not getting enough stretching in for all muscle groups which I'm sure is why I pulled the groin with the cat accident.
  • 1. Okay; I will start weighing everything except liquids and will keep to measuring that in cups 4. Had my husband recheck and my body fat is 17.2%; so rather than enter that in the spreadsheet I did an average with the other two calculations and got 20.63% 6. A break? ACK! That would kill me; as my job is sitting at a…
  • 1. I weigh or measure my foods; should I weigh everything rather measure? As in 1/2 cup of sliced strawberries or 2 cups of zucchini, I should weigh the strawberries? I will admit I do not always weigh meat that is cooked but I can check on that (I also do not eat meat a lot). -- I will check this 2. The HRM is just for my…
  • I'm going to piggy back on this thread and say I have not seen any loss either. I have been doing TDEE for 8 weeks and I am not getting anywhere. So I'm thinking maybe my numbers are off. That being sent; I can't seem to stay under on fat grams...so maybe that is why I am not seeing any loss. I used the spreadsheet and…
  • Zucchini Parmesan Crisps - Be sure to click on the word Share to save this to your wall. 1 lb. zucchini or squash (about 2 medium-sized) 1/4 cup shredded parmesan (heaping) 1/4 cup Panko breadcrumbs (heaping) - I've also used Italian breadcrumbs and those were good too 1 tablespoon olive oil 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt…
  • For those who say healthy food is too expensive; is it more expensive then the doctor? Because you will spend more time being sick and at the doctor (and missing work/kids missing school) if you eat unhealthy then if you pay up front for healthy and eat better. But ultimately it is your decision to make. We choose healthy…
  • Currently 126# 5'2" - this was taken 4th of July weekend You can see I have very "stout" legs
  • Get a tennis ball too and here is an AWESOME website to help use it: http://www.athletestreatingathletes.com I got it when I had an over use injury in my hip and my hip is 100% okay now; also I have repeatedly pulled my right hamstring for years but since using this (and the tennis ball); my hamstring has been truly…
  • This is the best I can come up with: Reference: Thrive Staple Foods http://thriveforward.com/lesson/clean-eating-101-lesson-2/#spMaterial_956 Also love Kale chips: you can make by tearing 3-4 kale leaves into small pieces Coat in 1 tsp of Extra Virgin Coconut Oil Arrange on a cookie sheet Sprinkle with sea salt (or creole…
  • sounds delish; will have to get some chia seeds and try
  • Creole seasoning...yummy Lemon, rosemary and garlic
  • I can't help with brand but I do know that for anything over C cups you should be wearing two sports bras. The first one is the cupped sports bra that lifts/separates The one you wear on top of that is a compression bra Then said puppies should stay in line. Try here:…
  • 5'2" At my heaviest 152# ; we went to Disney: And at my family's for 4th of July still around 152# This was 2009 - I finally dropped the weight - 118# here Now I'm 126# As long as my clothes fit; I'm not concerned about the number on the scale.
  • I have never used cauliflower as a sub for rice; but I make some awesome cauliflower mash and its superb!! Oh wait...I have this recipe for raw Spanish "rice" and it uses cauliflower. it is way good. Spanish “Rice” Yields: 4 Servings The cauliflower retains a ricelike shape and texture in this innovative dish (I like this…
  • Hmm, wondering about this because I get job offers on a daily basis and have never been unemployed. It could be one of two things: the industry specifically that you are in or location that you are in for jobs.
