Did you not see where I started? For me, being this size, and having been at this size for a few years now, is FREAKING AWESOME. <br /><br />And as for doing other things to benefit my running - sure, it probably would. Am I willing to get really stringent with my eating at the moment, though? No. I'm also not under any delusions of being a top runner...this is for fun, camaraderie and to get myself moving, which is something that I didn't do for most of my adult life.Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05890227462052573887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-47637765757280331392013-08-07T06:22:19.963-05:002013-08-07T06:22:19.963-05:00It would be more honest and brave to post this und...It would be more honest and brave to post this under your own name.<br />Franhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10287705328335828286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3067665701316634699.post-53696431895367432542013-08-07T05:56:49.369-05:002013-08-07T05:56:49.369-05:00You eat a lot of carbohydrates and not that much p...You eat a lot of carbohydrates and not that much protein in comparison.

And that reminds me, I need to buy a bag of Dove or Hershey Dark Chocolate Kisses or...what's that other kind I like? Dang it. I need to go hang out in the candy aisle at Giant Eagle.

I can keep a lot of the stuff that growing, always hungry teenagers liked to eat out of the house...back in the day, they would love to make a box of brownie mix and eat most of the pan, leaving just enough for me to have to fight myself over not eating. <br /><br />That said, no, don't wait until your kids move out - it might be harder, but putting something big like weight loss/health on hold for how many years? Not a good thing. Shelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05890227462052573887noreply@blogger.com
