Running for weight loss?
I am reading so much contradiction information online so I'd figure I'd ask people who may know. Is it possible with appropriate calorie restriction to lose weight running.

2010- 2014- 125 lbs gone. Thank you MFP!
I have to give a big thank-you to My Fitness Pal for setting me on the right path. In May 2010, I decided that my large achy body had to change and that I needed to change my life for the better.
