If you look at training programs, you'll find that training programs certainly don't have you run 13 mi every day. You usually have one long run that falls on the weekend. And you have until April. If you regularly get in 6 mi runs and a long run on the weekend, you'll be okay. Take care of yourself, practice fueling, and…

Just got my Flex on Saturday: https://www.fitbit.com/user/6DK7L4

Burrito in a Mason jar :)

I still don't keep many snacks in the house. The only snack food in the house most of the time is protein bars. I don't buy crap that I don't think I should be eating. I reserve that junk food eating for when I go out with friends, which is usually on the weekends. I still have "bad food choices with Hope" nights with one…

I got a great run in today. I ran 4.5 miles before work. I didn't get as much sleep as I would have liked, but I picked up the pace and had a pretty good run. I've been cooking with the pressure cooker and meals are ready quicker. I'm training for the Louisiana Marathon. I've gotta get through August without melting in the…

Perfecting the pressure cooker beef pot roast. I got an instant pot on Prime Day.

Congratulations! You look great.

1. It's never really too early to run. 2. It's never really too late to run. 3. It takes more gear to run that originally thought it would. 4. It'll cause a shoe fetish... specifically a running shoe fetish... an obsession with shoes, for sure. 5. You'll choose running over hanging out with your friends one day. 6. You may…

Sometimes, I still see myself as big. I just do.

Tradition 3: The only requirement for OA membership is a desire to stop eating compulsively. The requirement for the online group is "The only requirement is to actively participate, sharing your experiences, strengths and hopes to help keep ourselves and others binge/purge free and abstinent." Any reason why the…

Right. Because sweat is the determining factor for whether or not a person burns calories. :neutral: Wrong. Want to know a great way to work off 100 calories? Don't eat it in the first place. DONE. Mission accomplished. Didn't even have to break a sweat.

Were you previously a man? Sometimes this pooch is more about posture. Have you checked your posture?

Oh dear gawd. The long posts are off-putting (tl;dr). So are posts that dictate things like, "this is the one solitary way to do things, only my way works, and I have discovered the answers." OP is being obtuse to responses. If you only want people to respond who agree with your post, then say so in your post. Eat less.…

The calories burned on the elliptical machine are grossly overestimated, some as much as 40%. I take that into consideration before I get on an elliptical. When I get off the elliptical, I log only half of the calories that are displayed on the elliptical machine. When I want to run but the weather is bad, I get on the…

Greek yogurt + protein powder. I stick it in the freezer and eat it like ice cream.

Nope. I eat the whole damned thing. I already weighed the steak so I'm not trimming the fat. When I already know what I'm consuming, then I can eat what I weighed. No need to double or triple weigh anything. OP, if your methods are successfully working, keep doing them. If not, it would behoove you to to listen to…

DM frepont on Reddit if you would like to try RunKeeper Go for free. Is the new Runkeeper Go worth it?

1. compression tights 2. ExOfficio Give-N-Go Boxer Briefs. Why? No panty line. Why else? They wick away moisture from the skin. They are comfortable. Based on Amazon reviews, I am not the only woman wearing them. Thong, Granny Panties or Commando when working out

Here's what worked for me. I calculated how many calories I should be eating. I went here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/account/change_goals_guided Later on, I went here: http://scoobysworkshop.com/calorie-calculator/ Then, I got myself a digital food scale. I bought food and then put it on the food scale. I weighed the…

How their new ad should read: How to burn 1212 calories (a 3 liter of Coca Cola Classic): 336 mins walking or 139 mins jogging or 101 mins swimming or 185 mins cycling

True Lemon. And there's usually a coupon floating around the internet for it.

Great question. The truth is that I don't love running. Know what I love about running? Finishing. I love the feeling of accomplishment. I love knowing that my body is capable of doing things that my mind will try to convince it that it cannot. I love to prove to myself that I can. In short, I run because I am able. I am…
