What style and brand (under 50) are the best for running?

Personally I like the clip-on style earpads - I get a fuller sound than with earbuds and they stay on just fine. Mine are similar to this and cost about the same:

You probably won't like my suggestion because they are way more expensive then 50 dollars. However, they have been such a good pair of buds for my running that I want to share with you.

And a transmitter if your iPod is not Bluetooth enabled ( mine is 2nd generation, so clearly not):

Love these as they have served me well over last 6 months. Sound is superior and range is decent. The only downfall is they they need to be charged after 2 runs if you are going to run for an hour. I end up charging them after every run.

Holy crap fiddle, do you remember this girl couldn't afford running shoes!? Lol. Maybe someday, but definitely not now. They do look neat though! It's for my iPhone 4S (that doesn't have service- again, surgery broke me) and I dknt know If it has Bluetooth.

I have earbuds that have good sound it's just that as I move and get sweatier one side keeps popping out. I should have said "which earphones for running"

I like the idea of the kind w the hook that goes behind the ear... Or maybe the piece behind the neck?

Yurbuds Ironman. Trust me on this. There are a few different styles, but the plain earbuds with the silicone covers without the over the ear clip kind of corkscrews into your ear and you have to pull pretty hard for them to fall out. I've never had them come out without it being intentional once they are seated correctly. When I got mine, they were about $100, but now I think average price is right around $50, less if you can find them on sale or at TJ Maxx or something.

Good luck!

This is the model I have.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
