New to Group
Hi all! I'm a cancer survivor who was sent into menopause due to chemotherapy. It has been two years since my treatment ended and I'm shocked at this weight gain. Any tips would be greatly appreciated? I am using premarin creme for some of the physical side effects of menopause. I'm now having some extreme night sweats. I…

Eat to Live
Anybody following Dr. Furhman's Eat to Live progam? I just picked up the books and am researching into this plan. It seems like it is pretty radical and just wondering if anyone on these boards has had success with it.

MFP Runners Club: 5/11
I headed out for my first post-op run. I did a nice easy 1/2 mile. :drinker: I would have loved to do more but I'm guessing I'll wait until I get the all clear from my surgeon:embarassed:

MFP Runners Club: 3/17/09
Great weather for a run. I did 4.5 miles outside. Longest run since I've gotten back to running. Looking for a race to train for as I tend to do better if there is a goal in mind.

MFP Runners Club: 3/5
4 mile tempo run - Pitted my Garmin Forerunner 205 against my new Polar F6 HRM Only a 5 calorie difference in calories burned Now I'm confident enough to leave the HRM at home on easy run days.

MFP Runners Club: Feb 27
I felt kind of weird starting a thread since I'm new to joining your group but what the hey. I did another 5 K today but added a handful of fartleks of progressive distance for an added push. I normally wouldn't run every day but snow is falling right now and I wanted one last run on ice free roads.

Yeah! I ran outside today!
I am so happy. I had my first run in almost 2 months today. And the best part I was able to do it outside. Just an easy 3 miles but I had a smile on my face the whole time.

Low Fat
Most days I'm short on fat. As a rule our house is a pretty fat free zone. I'm wondering if I should worry about it. Heart Disease runs in my family so I take my Omegas and Fish Oil plus I try to add ground flax when possible. I know I could add more nut fat to the diet but right now I'm at 1200 calories and really don't…

Today I seem really hungry?
I've had 10 really good days eating at the 1200 - 1350 calorie range. I'm losing weight and feeling pretty good. Then today I just seem really hungry (I really haven't had hunger issues so far). Could it be my choice for breakfast? Today I had a light multi-grain english muffin with peanut butter so actually it was almost…

Hello, long time dieter first time on this site;-)
Hello all! I've always had to pay special attention to what I eat. I usually diet every 5 years or so it seems. I thought I had it all figured out when I started running. I could go ahead and slip up every now and again and it didn't matter because I was burning so many calories training for half marathons. This fall I ran…
