Not Eating Enough?
For the past few months, every time I get up, I get a head rush, and sometimes a headache follows. I talked to my doctor about it, and she says that my blood pressure is very low (90/60) so that may be why. Unfortunately, there is nothing I can do about this. However, just now I am realizing that my problems started around…

A Break from C25K?
I am going on vacation next week from Sunday to Thursday. I can probably run Sunday morning and Thursday night, but other than that, I'm not sure that I will have access to a treadmill, and I can't stand running outside. I am on week 5 of the program, and I really want to continue, but I'm not sure I should squeeze the 3…

NSV! NSV!
So yesterday, I posted a topic about running in the morning. For the past week, I have gotten up with the full intention of going running...and somehow, every single morning, I ended up back in bed. Anyways, I got some great tips yesterday, so I laid out my clothes, shoes, and ipod, set my alarm, and mentally prepared…

Morning Runs?
I am wondering if any of you run in the morning, and if so, how you get the motivation to do it. It seems like the morning for me is the best time to exercise, because then I get it out of the way and unexpected conflicts don't put me behind. Every morning for the past week, I have woken up ready and motivated to get…

Exercise how many days a week?
So I started MFP in the middle of May this year, and lost 10 lbs like it was nothing. I now have 20 more lbs to go. However, with the beginning of summer, vacations, etc., my weight loss has come to a standstill. I am currently on week 5 of the couch to 5k running program, so I do that 3 days a week. On the other days, I…

a question for the ladies
Ok so I have been on MFP about 2 months now, and my period is a little late in coming. I am wondering if this is a serious problem (ex. need to eat more calories or overworking myself) or if this is just a result of my major eating/exercise change. Also, if this has happened to any of you, how late has your period been?…

Running before Breakfast?
I have just started the cool running couch to 5k program, and I was wondering if anyone here runs right when they get up instead of after breakfast. I just feel like it would be a better use of time to do it before breakfast, so I don't have to wait to digest and everything, but I am worried about getting dehydrated or…

Exercise Calories
So a couple of days ago, I was looking at my calorie intake over the past few weeks. My goal settings were on "lose 1lb a week", but since my ultimate goal was to lose around 2lb a week, I was eating about 250 calories less than my goal, which was 1410. Recently I saw a post about one's body going into "starvation mode" if…

Propel Zero?
I posted a topic a couple of weeks ago about how hard it is for me to give enough water. Many of you suggested getting either flavored packets or flavored water and drinking that instead. I have taken your advice and purchased two boxes of propel zero flavoring packets. However, I am worried about how healthy this is. I…

Help with water!!!
When I started myfitnesspal a few weeks ago, I noticed the part of the log to record how much water you drink each day. I have never formally measured, but by my guess, its a good day if I drink 1/3 of the recommended amount of water. I realize how unhealthy this is, but I am having problems trying to increase my water…

Walk Away the Pounds
I'm not sure if anyone can help me with this, but I have a quick question. There is a workout DVD by Leslie Samsone called "walk away the pounds". There are 3 workouts: 1 mile (15 minutes), 2 miles (30 minutes) and 3 miles (45 minutes). For each workout, you do basic moves and walk in place. Also, for about 1/2-1/3 of the…
