Running AND lifting…
I’m a runner. A slow runner. I run because I LIKE it. I may love it. I know it does good things for my heart and I’m (technically) in better shape but my shape isn’t improving so much. I’d like to start a regular lifting routine but it can’t interfere with my running schedule right now (training for my first half…

Eggs
I eat 3-5 egg whites and one whole egg almost EVERY morning. I love eggs and their simplicity! However, I'm starting to get a little bored. I bought some yummy fruit salsa's yesterday but I don't want to eat eggs and salsa every morning. I'm tired of mushrooms, onions and peppers. How do you liven up your eggs?

Coffee vs Tea vs Water
Do you log your coffee or tea as water? I'm not sure why the distinction (in my head) but I'm feeling like I can count my tea but not my coffee. Thoughts? Reasoning?

Houston, we have a problem...
I know I shouldn't complain, but I am. :grumble: The dress I bought two weeks ago for NYE no longer fits. It's too big in the neckline, the arm holes AND around my hips (huh, thought those were gonna stick around forever!). Looks like I'm shopping again. Now I *really* wish I had measured myself when I started this!

HRM
I've convinced myself I want one & should spend the money on one but I'm completely overwhelmed by how many are out there! I'm like a toddler, too many choices tend to cause tantrums.... I've been looking at the Garmin Forerunner 305 but thought I'd ask if any of you have any suggestions. What do you love? What do you hate?

Becoming a biker
Last fall I moved to a very bicycle friendly city and have been thinking about taking up biking... but I have no idea where to start. Why are there 3 million types/kinds/styles?? And what on Earth are the differences?

Hormones
Today was bad, ate like crap, didn't move much & felt like I was on the verge of a temper tantrum :explode: all day. Unfortunately, this appears to be a recurring theme. I'm currently on a 30 day cycle of HRT for some female issues and I'm completely at the estrogens mercy. I have no control over my emotions & feel like…

Eggplants... now what?
I bought two huge beautiful eggplants yesterday and then realized everything I know how to make with them involves a large amount of oil, cheese and bread crumbs. Any recipes that are low fat/low cal would be great! I'm not a picky eater at all (I love ALL food, that's how I ended up here) and don't mind putting a little…
