NSV- sort of....
So I looked at these shorts at old navy all summer- purple/green plaid. I loved them but could not justify buying them for the price and knowing I would not be that size long.

Has anyone else had problems with birth control? I get my period every other week. My doc changed my birth control and I still get it. It is kinda annoying because I get the cramps too. Should I call my doc again or is this normal with weight loss?

Eating before running
I like to run in the morning- even on my days off... my problem is I am hungry and do not want to run on an empty stomach. What can I eat that will not upset my stomach while running but still have a little something in my stomach? or should I run before eating? I tried granola bars and they worked ok... suggestions?!
