I just put my nuts in the blender.....
Does anybody else do this? Sometimes I soak them overnight and sometimes I just throw them in the blender and find it a great way to get 25g of Almonds into my diet. Today's Smoothie hit the 1007 calorie count (140c 48p 29f) and tasted yummy (my diary is open if you want a peek). Oh, my ex wife once tried to blend my nuts…

NSV - running
OK, not a biggy but have started running again (ok, jogging) and this time am trying to slow down so I can travel further before stopping. I used to try running further/faster each time I went out but as a smoker it wasn't far (or fast) and not the best way to improve. Most routes here are hilly so today I drove 2 miles to…

12lbs in 12 weeks (pics)
It was late October when I found out my tum was 39" and my chest was 38" so decided to try and lose my beer belly. Am 53, 5'9" and was 164lbs so not needing to lose very much weight.

Can I gain LBM as fast as I lost fat?
In phase 1 (if my calipers are correct) I lost 15 1/2lb of fat and gained 3 1/2lb of LBM in 3 months (164lb - 152lb). Am moving on to phase 2 of my healthy body plan and hope to reverse the above to gain 12lb of LBM and maybe pick up 3-4lb of fat. MFP has me eating 2500 cal /d to gain 1lb a week - do you think I'll be back…

HRM - how often do you change weight?
Probably been asked before but how often do you guys change your weight when using your HRM? I changed mine today after losing 12lbs and was used to a one hour 'run' burning 500 calories (MFP has is as 621). With my current weight plugged in I went out for 45 mins today and burnt 243 cals! (324/h). I knew as you lost…
