0mm Drop Shoes
I bought a pair of New Balance Minimus Zero shoes and tried jogging on a treadmill with them. It definitely felt like I was running barefoot, which was a surprisingly foreign feeling. Has anyone else gotten a pair of shoes like this? If so how long did it take you to get to a point you were comfortable jogging in them? Any…

Measuring shredded potatoes
Are you supposed to measure shredded potatoes before or after cooking to get the nutrition information? My husband thinks it doesn't matter and you can measure them after they are cooked because the amount shouldn't change. I'm not convinced. We would be measuring by volume not weight. I don't have any more left or I would…

Lunges and knee pain

Small NSV - Went over calories, but...
I entered everything into the food tracker. That is a big step for me. I ate more than I should have but I wrote them down. Normally I would not enter the offending food into the tracker because then it would be real and I'd have to see it. In the end it turned out that I ate exactly what I would have if I had just been…

Hubby's weight = my weight :(
So it finally happened...my husband who is two-three inches taller than me weighs the same as me. He had always been between 10 to 20 lbs heavier than me but not anymore. I don't know what I'm going to do if he weighs less than me. I swore that I would never let that happen. I just started losing weight (again) but I keep…
