Starting over with running....
I've run Goofy races, Dopey Challenge, marathons, etc.. However after the Dopey in January I haven't run but maybe one mile. I found out I have a tumor near my optic nerve I have to have removed in October. It's caused serious issues with exhaustion and weight gain per hormones. I'm working hard to get my food intake back…

Going Dopey?
I've been struggling with the idea of running. I use to love running and ever since having surgery I've never been able to get back into it. I've invested a lot of money for WDW Marathon Weekend 2014 (flights and race fees). However I don't want to go. Has anyone ever experienced losing their love for running? Did you get…

Runners! Do you carry on a foam roller?
I started using a foam roller apx 10 days ago. I love it! My legs feel great since I started using one. I have a half marathon on Sunday and have to fly (Delta). It doesn't fit the standards they state as a carry on. My hubby took it on in January to marathon weekend in Florida and never got questioned for it. However we…

Reached out to my local friends....Hope it works for us!
Reached out to my FB friends in hopes one or two people would join me. I've put together a 15-20 workout challenge but enough to get a burn in Monday-Saturday. I've done it in the past and love it. The idea of having others keeping me going and checking in so I don't cheat is going to be great. I just hope they don't give…

Norwex?
Anyone use this product? I had a daycare mom bring me two Norwex towels. They only use water to clean with and the windows looks amazing. The product claims its a greener way to clean and the towels have silver built in they to cause the antibacterial cleaning. Just wondering what other uses thought.

How do you eat when you're not hungry?
I'm not hungry but forcing myself to eat. Now that I'm getting better at cutting out processed food (soups, frozen meals, etc...) my calories seem to be lower. I've been eating more veggies and high protein. However I feel like I have to stuff myself to get my calories in so my body doesn't feel like it's starving. Any…

Confused?
I wear a body bugg and average 2600 to 2800 calories burned a day. I aim for 3000 but usually dont make it that high unless I get to the gym or run. Mfp has my goals set at 1350 calories a day. I don't log my body bugg calories burned unless I track a "trip" workout. Should I be eating more calories? I spend the day at…
