Check this out: Salad in A Jar

No, you have not washed my car, power washed my home and driveway. Please let me know when you do. Maybe you can do these things for me while I'm at the gym.

I run because my body is able.

I had a board made by someone on etsy. I had a custom message put on it: "Trained for a 5K. Ran a Marathon. Anything is possible." It has pegs on the bottom to hang medals on. Like this: I continue running when I drink water.

Yup. I went to my local store, had them check my gait, got the shoes there. While I was at the checkout holding my wallet, the guy at the register saw my military ID and offered a military discount. Score. I ordered 2 more pair online. It was worth it to pay a little bit more in person to the folks who took the time to…

I threw out apple cider vinegar tablets that expired years ago because they didn't help with getting fit or weight loss. There are tons of websites that claim ACV does all sorts of things, but in reality, they don't aide in weight loss or getting fit. What are you taking fish oil for? They might help with your wait loss…

huh? No. Zyrtec doesn't affect weight loss, and I've taken it for years.

Try Oh Yeah! Victory bars. They are cheaper than Quest.

Oh Yeah! Victory bars. Cheaper, too. Probably just as addictive.

You're a Paleo coach, and follow your Paleo diet religiously. Why are you asking MFP about how to make up for a cheat meal?

The Baton Rouge Pride was great. We even participated in the Blessing of the Relationships. :)

+1 on increasing your distance. There are run schedules out there that will help you prepare for a 10K. Example:

Baton Rouge, LA

Chicken and stir fry veggies

Chicken and veggies. I make a large batch of food at the beginning of the week and have food ready all week for work. I also have a cucumber and tomato salad. There's also another thread here where people share what they are eating...…

Selfies? Yes, sometimes. Do I post them on social media? No. Definitely yes to progress pics.

Yesterday's run still is not in MFP. Programs are connected. Logged with GPS.

I drink water only. It's not really a diet for me. It's just what I do. I think that drinking water only helps prevent water retention. Of course, if I eat salty foods I am going to retain water.

Pork chops FTW

Quote from your profile: As a friend: I will like 94% of your status updates (weight loss/gain, diary completed, general chitchat) and be there for virtual hugs and a shoulder to cry on. Also from your profile: Why I want to get in shape I don't. Please give OP a virtual hug, people. Please. Also, be there for OP to cry on…

Awesome! Keep up the good work. :)

Is there an empty soda can laying around the house? Wash the bottom side of the can. Turn the can upside down. That depression in the bottom of the can measures exactly 1 tablespoon. Source: http://theboatgalley.com/measuring-spoons/ OR here's this...

What is clean eating, again? How is it a normal thing? Those same folks who have real results did so without "clean eating". Or at least I did. This.

And here I thought I'd find a question or information about General Diet and Weight Loss Help. I mean, that is what forum this thread is posted in. Like your body the way it is? Keep doing what you're doing. Want to change your body and your mindset around food and exercise? Be open to listen to what people have to say…

Greek yogurt + protein powder. Stick in the freezer. It's like an ice cream substitute.

Google "cold showers brown fat". You will find that studies show that cold showers are supposed to help burn brown fat. BUT I certainly wouldn't rely on cold showers for weight loss. Eat healthy. Exercise.

Joggers are those guys that are found dead in parks by runners and/or walkers. Don't be a jogger. Run. +1 on C25k +1 on getting outside

I still remind myself that there's a difference between 'not fat' and fit. :/ For me, fitness will be ongoing and I always set higher standards for myself. I sometimes still have to remind myself that I'm not as big as I was, and that I've come a long way. Maybe a little bit of gratitude goes a long way. I had to clean out…
