In my opinion, it's not your calorie intake that is the issue; it's the fact that you are bored with what you are doing. That is why it's enjoyable and easy when you run with partners. When there is no partner, you are bored; nothing to do with calories. I would suggest changing it up... as other have suggested, run hills,…

Wow!! Excellent work! Congrats to you!! :drinker: PS - You do NOT look like you weigh 200+lbs!!

Phenomenal! Well done! :drinker:

I don't think what he did was rude. It's his door; he can do what he wants. He didn't invite them over and then show up to the door half naked; that would be rude because he was expecting company and should be dressed appropriately. However, I do feel it's rude to go to someone's house, uninvited to sell or sling…

I think you should ask your Doctor what he/she recommends. Given the choice, I would totally do it. They can hinder how active you are and how much you exercise. Get them big babies reduced and lose the fat elsewhere on your body! =)

I know people don't take a lot of stock in what Dr. Oz says. But, I saw an episode where he said if you are eating a high carb meal, (pasta, bread, etc), vinegar helps block the carbs from being absorbed (or something like that). So, he suggested using balsamic vinegar in your pasta or dipping your bread in it, or just…

^ THIS!!

:laugh:

Are you weighing EVERYTHING that you put into your mouth? Many people underestimate what they eat. Even the serving size on packages are incorrect if you weigh them out. It's also possible that you are overestimating how much you burn during exercise.

^ This! Pizza is your favorite food; why give it up? If this is a lifestyle change and not a diet, there's not reason you can't eat some of your favorite foods from time to time.

I just pinned that cat on Pinterest on my "humor" page. Thank you for posting it; made my day! :tongue:

:laugh:

Still LMFAO!! Can't stop!

LMFAO!!!!! :laugh:

If your goal is to give up sugar/sweets, then don't do it. The more you go without those treats, the less you will crave them. For me, I love sweets and don't want to give them up. So, if it fits into your calories for the day, go for it! When I'm trying to be REALLY good, then I'll allow myself the treats only the…

^ protein powder & bars do not hinder weight loss.. This is silly. Edit to add: you don't have to replace protein bars in your diet. But, you can always find better bars that aren't filled with junk & sugar.

^ THIS!

When kids are sick, the Doctors say it's most important to stay hydrated. So, work on keeping hydrated and just eat when you can! Hope you feel better soon! :flowerforyou:

Ruff 23?

Sorry! I'm old! Must be the eyes! :tongue: That's what happens when I can't click the pic to make it bigger!

Amy - 31?

Thanks! This is very easy to understand! I like that in a post! :bigsmile:

Thanks for sharing!!! :drinker: I copied & pasted these into a Word doc so I can print them out! Nice to have all the ideas in one place!

^ ^ ^ This is awesome! Thanks for sharing!

Great work!!! Congrats! You look great! :drinker:

You can have a cooking day on Sunday where you pre-cook your food for the week. You could also do the same for dinners. Cook a few chicken breasts, turkey patties, fish (any lean proteins that you like), roast and/or steam some veggies and make a big batch of quinoa, potatoes, etc for your carbs. Then just assemble small…

^ Fail! No offense! But, honestly, your doctor is probably a general practitioner that has spent minimal time studying fitness and nutrition. Your Doctor has outdated views and shouldn't dish out advice in matters that he/she knows very little of. Both parts of his/her suggestion are false!

It's highly recommended that you get fitted for shoes at a running shoe store! Just because they rate well, doesn't mean they will feel good on your own feet and that they are the right shoe for you!

It is a healthy lean protein and would be great if you could incorporate it into your diet. But, you don't HAVE to eat fish. Aside from getting white, mild fish varieties and getting as fresh as possible, you can always try to eat it with other things and not just by itself. One of our favorite things is fish tacos. Bake,…

Looks and sounds great! Thanks for sharing! :flowerforyou: I'm not a sausage fan. So, I will swap for extra lean ground turkey.
