bump for endo information....
-
I just ordered today and plan to start on Tuesday !!!! I can't wait !!!! I've been stalled for over a year and have had it once and for all !!! Hoping this does the trick ! Friend me ... i would love to follow this with other Advocare users !!!
-
Yeah, what Heidi said .... Lol.... I do, however, eat at TDEE and don't often eat all my calories back. I am a runner and sometimes the burns are up there and I couldn't possibly fill that with healthy choices. So essentially, I eat until I"m full on those days and do allow more if my body asks for it. I am steadily losing…

TRUST your training because you will get nervous. But once you start running, it's back to basics !!!! Hydrate all week . Don't do anything different !!!! Eat your go to meal before a long run (you should have a good idea by now what it is) and don't deviate. I ate white pasta before my first half ( I'm all whole wheat for…
-
Oh, and are we doing it every day ? Or taking one day off ? I usually take off Sundays to repair the muscles (even from running ) .....
-
A Woot Woot !!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait !!! I will be entering my numbers (ahem) in a bit when kiddos go to bed. I'm in this to win it ! I'm off sugar and processed ANYTHING. Only natural carbs from fruit and veggies after breakfast (still need some carbs to keep up my running and Jillian) ! I also made my diary public so…
-
Yeah, yeah... we get it, you're gross..... your protein references are noted, like from now on !!!!!!!!
-
Clarks Summit, pa transplant.... and yes, these are true and funny !!!!!
-
I've tried both... strict 1200 and any range from 1500 to 1800.... scale still not moving !!!!!!!!!!!! Feel free to make suggestions !!!!!!!!
-
Oh, if it were this simple !!! I count everything that I eat (pretty clean) and am a runner, spinner and all out active girl. I have lost 54 lbs. and am completely stalled with 15 to 20 to go !!!!!!!!!!!!! It sometimes isn't as simple as that. I eat, sleep and dream about my "goal" only to step on that scale every week to…
-
Oh, and I do have the Nike chip that attaches right to the laces of my shoes and uploads to nike website. Great way to track your mileage and push yourself. They have great training programs also !!!!!!!!
-
Ditto. Running store and don't necessarily assume Nike's are best for running. FYI... when at a race, it's Brooks, Asics, etc... that you see most of. I am a Brooks girl myself. I'm a pronator so my footwear choice is crucial to sustained, painfree running !!!! Lace up and RUN !!!!
-
Same thing is happening to me... been stuck for two months with not a single lb. lost !!! I run, spin, weight train.... I'm a VERY active lifestyle... not a lot of moss growing under my feet. I have upped my cals a bit to have a smaller deficit and have added Jillian and interval training of all sorts..... nothing yet. I…
-
I was 224 at my heaviest and all I want to say is we decided to change that !!!!!!!!!!! Focus on the drive to change; it will get you through. It's a long road sometimes ( it took me years ) but it's worth it !!!! I'm currently about 14 lbs from my goal weight but here's what I don't miss : I don't miss the disgust I had…
-
Thanks !!!!!!!! It's been driving me crazy trying to figure that out !!! I really should know that as I should focus more on NSV's !!!!
-
Please !!!!!!! Don't laugh at me, but WHAT is a NSV ?????? Those kind of information seeking questions are the BEST !!!!!! .... I love saying 15-20 more and having people balk at me........... feels good inside !!!
-
You are an inspiration !!!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing !!!!
-
Great job !!!!!!!!!! Bye, bye harmful belly fat !!!!!!!!!!! Way to go.... stick with it !!!!!!!!!!
-
What a remarkable transformation and such a gift to your body !!! You look fabulous !!! Thanks for sharing. My story is similar. I, too, looked in the mirror one day and couldn't believe how bad I had let it get !!!! My outsides didn't match my insides any longer.... so I fixed it !!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have 13 to go, so we are…
-
Old Bay Seasoning is the BEST !!!! There is a recipe on the bottle for a chicken marinade. Lemon, olive oil, oregano and Old bay. Grill the chicken; It's absolutely delicious. I slice it up and put it over a very green salad and don't even need any dressing because the chicken is so juicy and flavorful !!!!
-
bump for later
-
I should make clear that fuel in this case means the day before as does the wine..... I have never hit the booze and THEN gone for a run ! When I reread my post, It didn't seem clear. LOL ....
-
Just keep at it and listen to your body when it wants a rest; it's ok to WALK (some famous marathoners swear by it ) !!!! Do you use any of the energy sources for long runs ? When I will be running for more than an hour, I love the honey stinger chews. They REALLY work ! Stay hydrated and make sure you're fueling with GOOD…
-
I'm training for my first half coming up in September. The training has been great and I can't wait for the race ! I love to run. I follow a Nike plus training program and run give or take about 25 miles a week or more depending on time. My longest run so far is 10 miles. I live in NEPA with LOTS of hills (hard to find…
-
This is a great post ! I've enjoyed reading all the responses and have encountered much of the negative responses as others. I run to feel alive, because I can, to be proud of myself, to keep fit ( I have a resting heart rate of 49), to clear my head, TO SWEAT out the bad stuff (and some wine, too), to challenge myself, to…
