Running with a sore foot
I am trying to start running. My endurance is pretty pathetic. I can do 0.3 miles. I am running every other day an increasing my time by 30 seconds, but two days ago I must have done something to a muscle on the top of my foot because now it hurts when I put pressure on it to walk. Should I keep running anyway or give it…

Looking for friends wanting to lose 30-40 pounds
I am back on the wagon, but most of my old MFP friends are no longer active. I think it would be fun to be friends with people look to lose the same amount of weight so we can encourage each other and talk each other through plateus. Please add me.

Vegetarian Recipes
Does anybody know where I can find vegetarian recipes with pictures and calorie count that makes either 4 or 8 servings. I usually get my recipes from myrecipes.com, but their vegetarian selection seems limited.

Fat intake high, but calories low. Is that okay?
I am always over in fat because I was advised to eat healthy fats like nuts and avocados to control my appetite, so I am doing that, but am always way over in my fat intake for the day. I am able to usually stay under my calorie goal, since I upped it to 1370 anyway. Will it slow my weight loss down to have a high…

Running at 10:30pm
How inconsiderate do you think it is to run on treadmill on top floor with neighbors below you at 10:30pm for 30 minutes? There is just no other time to do it on Thursdays, but I could just plan it out so I skip Thursdays. What would you do?

people 10-20 pounds above their goal eating BMR
If you are 120-150 pounds, or have 20 pounds to lose to be at your ideal weight, did you eat your net BMR (BMR-exercise) calories and were you successful? I know this has been talked about a lot, but I am having trouble finding success stories by people with a small amount of weight to lose. My BMR is 1340, and eating…

Heart Rate Monitor
Well, I have been gaining weight lately instead of losing despite eating the right amount of calories, so I am thinking maybe myfitnesspals overestimates the amount of calories I burn. Do you think a heart rate monitor would be a good way to find out more accurately how many calories I burn and this, how many I should eat?…

Advice!!?!?
Reducing calories works for a week. I will lose 5 pounds of water weight, and then in week 2 I gain it back for absolutely no reason. Then I lose motivation because what is the point of depriving myself if I get no results from it. Exercising only makes me more hungry causing me to eat more. I don't know what else to do.…

Are fruits bad for losing weight?
I was told that foods high in sugar go through you fast, leaving you hungry faster than low sugar foods. So, should I stay away from fruits? If so, what foods other than fruits have high protein and high fiber and low sugar?

Christmas cookies
How do you count Christmas cookies that people make? They are all so different and it all depends on what they put in them. I don't want to under or over estimate. Advice?

Belly fat diet
Has anybody who is in the nirmal weight range, but wants to lose 10-15 pounds done the belly fat diet? I just finished the 4 day cleanse part, but now 1600 calories seems like way too much food to lose weight. My BMR when multiplied by 1.2 to account for activity is 1590, which means that if I eat 1600 calories a day, I…

Do you burn calories if it is easy?
I am doing the 30 day shred. I have already completed it once in January, but have bounced back so I am doing it again. After a few days of getting back into it, the workout seems a lot easier. Does that mean I am not burning as many calories as I was when it was hard? My weight has not changed.

Overheating?
When I was much fatter and first started to workout, after a workout, I would get really bad stomach pain and would feel like I needed to sit on the toilet, but nothing would come out. Eventually, it would go away after about 15 minutes of sitting with a cold compress with very little clothing on. As I got more in…

Urge to eat before bed
I have been eating between 1200 and 1320 calories each day for about 2 weeks straight-always a net of 1200 or less with exercise. I had been doing it off and on, but kinda got off track over the holidays. For the past 4 days, I have found that I simply cannot sleep without having something fresh in my belly. Literally, I…
