Hey Omar,

McMillan’s race calculator says that your best mile time will be 6:15, if that PR is fairly recent.

Anything to motivate you to lose weight is important. Staying focused can be difficult if you suffer from cravings, but I also think its great advice to remind people that you only want to lose weight if you’re overweight.

There are many ways to lose weight, and supplements can help you if you suffer from intense cravings or low energy.

I've started running three months ago. I'm up to seven miles four times a week, but I've gained 4 pounds. My whole motivation for running is that you don't see fat runners. I was hoping to trim down. Is my body wonky or is this normal to gain at first? Julies last blog post..Op vakantie en bijna jarig

I would have to agree with this, i’m about 14 lbs lighter now compared with March this year and my 5 mile time has gone from 51 mins to 42 and jsut ran a 2 mile race in 15:08… sub 20 would not have been possible months back.

i am doing my first triathalon this summer. i am following the training schedule and my nutrition is right on. i have been trying in vain for the last year to lose 10 pounds. I thought that with the triathalon i would lose some weight since i am doing so much cardio. No such luck. is this normal?? I am at a loss. I know i need to lose fat not weight, but how??

So to carry this a little further. Would it be more beneficial to stop doing upper body weights , thus not adding further weight , and take the time spent on more cardio training for weight loss?
