what are you wearing for shoes?

I've outrun my running shoes and am now at a point where I want to purchase 2 pair of shoes - 1 to keep running outside, and 1 for my training at the gym. I've tried on the Five…

For those of you with PT's, are you planning on gifting your PT? I've been working with mine, 3xweek, since June. I think I should do something, but haven't the foggiest clue. And if your answer is yes, what are you gifting?

I've opened my diary - carb macro help?
I'm 46, started MFP at 208 3 weeks ago, weighed in today at 201. Gluten free. I'm ignoring the sodium/sugar macros, but I never really seem to hit my carb requirements.
