Cleared to start a bit of running...
After a year of zero impact aerobics due to injury, my PT cleared me to start adding some "therapeutic running" into my routine. So, 5 minutes a day, I am to job 30 sec/ walk 1 min, carefully practicing my new and improved running form. Once I've built up to 10 minutes a day, I get reevaluated and hopefully cleared to…

Grrr...Everything has added sugar!
I bought some gazpacho soup from Waitrose (UK upscale supermarket) for lunch. I love gazpacho - spent a summer in Spain and ate it every day, nearly. I know that it can be made with bread crumbs, so I was super happy to see that the "Heston" range had no bread! Yay! Veggies without a salad for lunch today! Well....I took…

60 sec plank today. I'm so tired after last night's yoga class. Still...kind of disappointed I have only added time once! Where are my core muscles? Shouldn't I be getting stronger? Am I really just too tired from other exercise? :grumble:

60 sec plank! I really meant to go for 5more secs, but just didn't have it in me this am. Moving to next hotel today, so may not have Internet at the next, but will continue to plank. This may be my first vacation where I don't come back feeling like the blob!

New here...returning to running after injury
Hi all! I'm new to this group. I'm a former runner who's been sidelined by a misdiagnosed injury. Finally got back on track a couple of years ago, after several years of terrible pain, then disaster! I reinjured myself last July, and it was so bad my physio said to stop running completely and work on building strength,…

Why should this time be different?
Sorry for the long post - need to get this out, though! I started seriously using MFP August 09 at 168 lbs. I had already lost down from my highest weight of 190, but for over a year I yo-yo'd around in the 160's, and I was tired of it. I did great, joined some very helpful challenges, gave up ALL alcohol, finished the…

New
Hi. I'm new to this site. I used to be in shape and and a runner, but I developed an injury which kept me from running at a critical time in my life. I had a terrible job, long commute, I was getting married and I turned 30. All that happened in one year and I started piling on the pounds (stress eating, no time to cook…
