I know I can't eat one everyday - and it's funny, I had never had one EVER until this week. I read on a running website that a bagel with a bit of PB was like the perfect pre-run food, so I thought I would give it a try for Sunday run. The only problem with that was it was SO good that I am wanting one every morning - with or without a run.amatlack wrote:Careful with bagels, lady. They're deceptively high in calories, among other things.
PS: You should try favorite treat. Get a little tub of Greek yogurt (6 oz?), add a tablespoon or two of almond butter, and a splash of maple syrup to taste. It should do you better than the bagel.
I like your idea of greek yogurt and adding the almond butter.

yes it does. I feel so sorry for these kids when i watch them coming out of school loaded down with these heavy backpacks. They aren't even able to walk correctly! They are bent forward and their stride is not normal. Thanks for the advice on stretches - will def. do those.Bonnie wrote:Damn cuts to the school system affecting children's posture now, that sucks.
Will do!!Lesplease wrote:Up the cardio to keep 'em in (: Haha.
yeah, I saw the jar, just couldn't bring myself to spend almost $5 for it. Wanted to make sure I at least like it first. And since I do, I may splurge on myself and get it. I actually like the little packs because it is already measured out for me, and I can't cheat on serving size.amatlack wrote:Yeah, I tried that little pack.
I am hoping that is in part to a bit of weight loss and also the HIIT work. Still have a ways to go to get to the times I want to be at for racing, but progress is being made! son ran ahead of me and finished nearly 3 minutes faster than his time last week. 
Now I want to know about the brain & food sources Oh & heya lynn, something tells me you will be at page 200 in no time So, the lesson here is that the way we perceive ourselves is not always the way we appear to everyone else. To him, I was the "big dog", and it made me realize that i was beating myself up for nothing. At least I was out there working, and doing something good and healthy.I do the same thing. I unrealistically think I should be able to compete, at the age of 56, with the 30 somethings. After last 5K I was down on myself because of performance, But, when I saw the overall race results I found that I finish well into the first half of the pack. I also got to remember there aren't that many people age out there to begin with.fitoverforty wrote:So, the lesson here is that the way we perceive ourselves is not always the way we appear to everyone else.
