Finally! Almost 30 pounds down!
I had planned on making a post when I crossed over the 30 pound mark and into the 160's but when I saw my most recent picture (taken over the weekend) I really couldn't help but share. I actually started about 10 pounds heavier than I did in my before picture but as most do, I avoided the camera like the plague. The…

Low Metabolic Rate - Anyone?
After being plateaued for 5 weeks, increasing activity considerably and journaling every morsel, I opted to have my metabolic rate tested at the suggestion of my family doctor. He did routine blood work (all normal aside from being slight anemic). Upon testing I've learned a few things that I've never really seen much…

Sugar addict! Oh my gosh I'm a sugar addict!
I have been on MFP for a long time. A looooonnnnngggggg time... I had an account before the wonderful App. Last year I had lost over 20 pounds and was kicking butt until I fell and broke my foot at a mud run. 5 months non walking, surgery and 3 months of physical therapy allowed me every excuse I needed to gain it all back…

Excuses! Fat and Fabulous
The other day I was watching the new Lifetime show called Fat and Fabulous. It follows a 380 pound woman who gained weight rapidly but became a youtube sensation because she proved that in her terms, "fat people can dance". I remember when I first saw it preview, I was so mad that they would even put on a TV Show that…

Potty training a puppy...
I have a 3 month old American Bulldog. She's super smart but extremely hyper. My husband has taught her to sit, stay, fetch and shake. She's even diciplined enough to sit while he prepares her food and not touch it until he says eat. She's wild and crazy and we love her. However, she has been impossible when it comes to…

Is there running life after a major injury?
This past weekend I planned to run a 5 mile Spartan Mud/Obstacle Race. I say planned because one mile in, I lost my grip on a 12 foot climing wall and shattered my heel bone. I have never broken a bone before but I can say it was the most intense and excrutiating pain I've ever felt. Keep in mind I have 2 children. So with…

Pebble Watch or Something Similar???
Anybody have one? Pro's and Con's? I'm looking for something to use during workouts for music without having to hold my phone or strap it to my arm. I looked on the website but didn't see where you could plug headphones into it. If not the Pebble, does anyone use something else that might work as well? Thanks!

Runners Question
There's all kinds of information out there about a runners form. I'm battling horrible shin splints. So much so that I am currently sporting a sexy limp. :ohwell: I've noticed that if I run more on my toes, the shins don't hurt nearly as bad. Anyone else have luck with running on your toes? I've read conflicting…
