flip belt, fanny pack, something else?
I need a way to carry my phone when I run that doesn't push buttons when I run. I don't like arm bands-they drive me crazy. If it matters, I use regular ear buds, not bluetooth. I have an adjustable belt that was ok (had a clear window that made accessing touch screen easy), but I upgraded my phone and the S7 doesn't fit…

Virtual races
Do people actually do them? Or is it just a ploy to make money by sending you a medal? I'm not taking about the ones that are fundraisers, but the ones that pop up on my Facebook news feed from time to time.

graze
anyone tried the graze snack boxes? I just got my first one, and it seems like it is going to be an excellent way to snack with controlled portion sizes.

pneumonia
I . am. so. tired. of. being. sick. I can't run. I feel miserable. Over. it. (ok, pity party over. Just needed to whine for a second)

People who completed the C25K program...
Just for my own curiousity, what was your average pace when you completed the program, regardless of if you were actually hitting the 5k distance.

synthroid
Anyone else on synthroid? My TSH has been out of whack for nearly a year and my PCP prescribed it today. I'm curious as to other's experiences--the weight I've lost so far has been hard-fought with every pound being a struggle...

Scale won't budge, but...
So this isn't my ultimate success story, because I'm definitely still a work in progress. But like so many of us, I want the numbers on the scale to move. Go down. Budge already. And they just. weren't moving. Fortunately, I had taken measurements when I started my running and weight lifting journey, and even though the…

c25k question
I've been sticking faithfully to the program, and I'm set to complete the 9 weeks later this week. BUT. Even at 28 minutes, I'm only hitting 2.5 miles consistently at the end of the run. I ultimately want to move on to the c210k, but how would you move forward from the program? I don't want to kill myself moving on to the…

Les mills body pump
...I'm not going to be able to pick up a pencil tomorrow, am I? What a great class.

celexa
I was prescribed celexa after suffering severe PPD. I was slowly weaned off of it, after a 45 lb weight gain. I usually lose weight when I stick to the program, but after stopping celexa, these pounds are hard-fought. Anyone have any experience with losing weight after gains on an SSRI? I've mentioned it to my MD, and I…

tough mudder question
I am registered for the TM in NOLA in March. I started running about 8 weeks ago and am currently consistently running about 2.5-3 miles 3x/week, and I just (as in this week) started incorporating Les Mills BodyPump classes 2x/week (LOVED it). I am a complete novice to both--my upper body strength is pretty much zero at…

Chinese buffet
Chinese food is probably my absolute biggest weakness. Once a month, we have a meeting at the local buffet...I try to drink lots of water and eat a small snack before going, but it's just sooo good. What are some ways to not completely deprive myself but also not devour the whole buffet??

C25k w5d3
...tomorrow. I think I can! 5 weeks ago, I could barely survive the 60 seconds and tomorrow I'm aiming for 20 minutes. Holy macaroni and cheese, batman.

I hormonal, I forgot my lunchbox, I miss my snacks, and all I want is a bag of chips. And nacho cheese. Someone talk me back down.
