Just started running, could use some encouragement
I used to hate running with passion. I have been running 3 times a week for the past two weeks. I actually enjoy it now. I usually run/walk 1.5 miles. The past two times my average time has increased. It was 15 minutes per mile and now it is 20 minutes per mile. And I am slightly disappointed that I burn 100 calories in a…

Curious about everyone's eating habits as a child
I wish that I had more of a variety of food when I was a child. I was eating Chinese food last night and remembering how the first time I ate it, I was 10 and with my aunt. I had something I did not like and did not try Chinese food again until I was 18. I really only like sesame chicken. Maybe if I was exposed to it as a…

sore arms, to work out or not
I did an arm workout on Wednesday. I really overdid. This isn't a regular sore, it hurts to straighten my arm out. I have been stretching, but that is it. Should I try to do a light workout, or wait until it doesn't hurt. I did take an Advil, that is not helping.

Size of crockpot
My bank gave me a free 1.5 quart crock pot. I used it a few times for pulled pork and love it. What size do I need? It would just be for my husband and I. I want to use it more often and I know i need a bigger one.

I need a different type of deodorant. I need something that is clear gel and will last. I use Secret, I'm fine with reapplying after a workout, but if I step a foot outside, it is gone. So what do you use that lasts?

Peanut butter!
I love peanut butter. My husband bought the honey kind so his kids could eat pbjs for lunch. I had a taste of it, and omg. I don't think I have enough willpower to stop eating the serving size. It is sooo good! I bought honey wheat bread that is 40 calories a slice, so I can have my own sandwich. Forget the jelly, I just…

Hard sticking to my diet with my husband
I am not being that strict with my diet, but I am avoiding eating out as much as I can. I can avoid temptation, unless it is offered to me. And my husband likes to offer it. He is supposed to be eating healthy with me, but he is not taking it that serious. We were in town yesterday and he wanted to stop at McDonalds for a…

Stretching before a workout?
My gym teacher always taught to stretch before a workout. I always have and do not feel as sore in the morning. I read somewhere that stretching before a workout is actually bad because it weakens the muscles. Any thoughts?

Caffeine
I need something to wake me up and keep me focused. I usually drink AMP, but I know that is so bad for me. I don't drink coffee because it does nothing for me and I use a LOT of sugar. Any suggestions?

Cheap and filling salad?
I am going to try and eat salads for lunch instead of hot dogs. What are some good salad ingredients? I also need a good salad dressing. I LOVE ranch, but I know how unhealthy that is. I do not like vinegar, so that is out.
