New runner looking for winter clothing recs
Hola, all! I know there are a LOT of runners in the MFP community, and I'm hoping that those of you who have run in colder climes can help a newbie out.

Looking for portable food scale recommendations
Hi everyone! I'm calling on the collective brains of MFP in an effort to find a food scale. I'm looking for something small that I can put in my purse or my work bag and take with me.

What to eat on workout mornings
I'm struggling to find the right breakfast on workout mornings and could use some suggestions. I only work out in the morning one day a week, and on that day I can never seem to find the breakfast that's not too much food but also gives me enough energy. Last week I tried just having some chocolate soy milk prior to my…
