For those short distances, there isn't anything you HAVE to eat. It's the long distances like half marathon and marathon runners who need to carb load the night before and some recovery meals after. 2-3 miles does not attack your body like long distances.

I wouldn't do the NO carbs at all. Carbs are necessary in moderation and certain times of the day. Carbs provide our bodies with energy. It is the type of carbs that is important and when you eat it. The no carb diet is doomed to make someone fail and certainly puts stress on your body.

Stay away from processed foods and you will see how much sodium you will not eat. Whole clean foods is low in sodium (except egg whites --not sure why. lol).

Way to go. You look great. Your hard work is paying off. Keep it up!

I didn't care what I looked like and just grin and bared through the workouts.

I don't indulge on a WHOLE day. Instead, I have an indulge meal and it's usually earlier in the day and never on the same day that I take a day off from the gym. First, having this planned meal helps me mentally through the week or month of strict clean eating. I pass up every temptation knowing I am working hard for the…

I'd but it once the big clothes look REALLY bad. Just don't buy too many. Also, wearing clothes that fit will really show how much you;ve lost and how good you are looking. :)

If you do the EXACT thing for all 5r weeks-- yes.

I eat 1200-1400 calories per day and burn 800-1100 calories (depending on how I'm feeling). I don't count other activities like cleaning, house work, or other everyday chores. I don't specifically look at net calories. I just strive to get the best workout each and every day.

I'm a huge believer in weight training. Love love love it!!! And NO, I didn't bulk up. Quite the opposite. I am getting firmer and just straight up toned...and STRONG.

My trainer said--when you think you've eaten enough protein...eat some more. lol. He said we need to eat 1g of protein per lb of body weight for women. For men, who are trying to build, it should be 1.5-2g per lb of body weight. MFP presets are pretty low but you can adjust it yourself.

Lower your carbs to about 100-125g/day, increase protein to 1.0 g per lb you weigh, and keep your fat around 25-35g per day. Remove the carb intake after 5pm and eat less processed foods. Eating less processed foods will directly lower your sodium intake and sugars. Hope this helps.
