I'm bookmarking this one. Sometimes I just get in the mood to read about nutrition. Is that our Sabine that submitted Hunter's Cabbage recipe? Andrea

As Debra said, at-home spinning is a high intensity, no impact workout. There are videos besides Spinervals that are good too. If you have never taken a spin class I would go to a gym and take one first to see if you like it. I live 100 miles from a gym, but it was definitely worth the...

RE: bmr/activity That is a nice calculator. It said I should eat 3,980 calories! And I must be eating that since I maintain my weight. Whoa:o The only thing that I know is wrong is that it said I am an apple. Anyone can look at me and tell that I am a pear. Measuring around my hipbones...

RE: bmr/activity Thanks so much JJ! Andrea

JJ Actually your post helped out a lot. When they give days of exercise for activity level, is that an hour per day? Andrea

Two questions here: 1. Is there a way to test your metabolism that tells you how many calories you burn a day at rest? I know there are equations for figuring out your base, but wouldn't everyone's be different? 2. When looking at the charts to figure out one's activity level what...

I hope to do my first tri this summer, so can't give you any personal advice. Have you checked out some of the tri sites? www.tri-newbies.com is a good one. What kind of surgery did you have? I am having foot problems right now and haven't been able to run:( Andrea

I always eat something different, but this a new favorite of mine. 1/2 c quick oats 1/2 small can crushed pineapple 1 container vanilla yogurt (6-8 oz.) I use Yoplait Mix together. Can add some toasted sliced almonds if you like. Refrigerate overnight. Eat with sliced bananas...

Debbie Here are some reports and pics from VF. http://205.214.68.83/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=44370&highlight=CIA+Conference http://205.214.68.83/vbulletin/showthread.php?s=&threadid=44352&highlight=pictures Andrea

I agree. I never talk working out to anyone unless I'm asked. And then I keep it short and sweet. They look at me like I'm trying to brag or something. And some days I just wish I could call someone up and say, "I just did the hardest workout!" and go on about it. Andrea

Hooray! Glad to hear of the good news! I hope Kennedy is feeling better;-) Andrea

Ahhhh! He's so precious! Andrea

It's because you ALWAYS have something nice to say to everyone. Even if it's just "hi"! Andrea

Congrats Sabine! I am also dying for air on interval 9! And my quads are on fire! Andrea

RE: babydollsea I didn't run with a time team. I trained on my own and ran on my own. The lowest the pace group went was 5 hours and I knew it'd take me a bit longer than that. The medal we got was so awesome! And I'm wearing my tee now:-) I'm going to try and do some halfs so get...

RE: Marcia It sounds like you had a great experience! Congrats and good luck this June! Let us know how it goes:-) Andrea

babydollsea Thank you for sharing your story! I love reading other's experiences with marathon. Awesome time too...you are quite speedy! Andrea

Carole I'm sorry to hear about your injury. Now that I know you are an ultra-runner I can really ask you some questions! Andrea

Hi Bobbi! I'm feeling fine now, but not quite ready for any high impact stuff. I'm making myself take it easy for a bit. I read that just because I don't feel tore down, my body still is. I was in the grocery store in Basha's (wearing my Tee of course) and a lady that worked there asked if...

Carole My goal was also just to finish, but I needed to estimate a time for my family and for my corral. I just didn't expect to be out there so long. Are you still marathoning? I'm taking this week totally off and just doing a little stretchy yoga here and there. I'll ease back into...
