I was just like you! The first time I ran earlier this year I barely made it 2 houses down my street. I have now run 2 5k's. I always walk in the mornings during the week but last Saturday before work I ran 2 miles at 6 am and was actually looking fwd to it. Yep, I now call myself a runner! And that to me blows my mind as well!

Same thing happened to me last week and I really think it was the airplane ride. But then someone told me maybe it's the heat. I'm not sure, thinking it's a combo of the two.

wow, good for you!!

Well, I never expect to get full. That feeling is long gone. But what I have found helped was adding a 4th meal. Sometimes I will eat my lunch as early as 10:30 or 11 if I am really hungry. Then again around 2 and then dinner a few hours later.

I don't expect to use the extra calories either from exercise.

Good for you!! I miss snap peas and snow peas..they are just a few of the things that don't go down good for me, even after destringing them.

Why haven't you been back to see the dr? Don't be afraid of the scale. I weigh myself every day. It's one of the things that keeps me accountable. The only time I don't want to get on it is when I know I had a bad day the day before. Sure, muscle weighs more than fat, but 9 pounds of muscle seems like a lot of weight training to gain that. Sounds like you should get in to the dr and see what needs to be done to get you on the losing track again. Good luck.

if your port has broke through the skin, sounds like a medical necessity to me. Are they not going to fix it for you?

I flew last week and had no problem eating on the plane. But for the week I was away, def had a few things get stuck that normally would never have a problem with. I came home 4 days ago and finally feel better.

great article.....as I sit here wanting to eat! Think I will have a cup of tea!

1000 is where I lose the fastest. I wouldn't pay attention to myfitnesspal!
