Skells - Reducing cardio? That'll be hard for me to do (lol!). I'm in the midst of marathon training. Usually during off running season, I add less mileage but still do a daily run. Doing other types of cardio, strength and core training thru intervals and pliometrics compensate for working body parts differently. </div></div> 800 calories??? dat is too likkle bit Sandi!!!

Clearing...

I am really trying hard to eat more calories, carbs, and protein, and increase my vitamin intake. My calorie consumption avg 1200 - 1500 calories per day. Take into consideration that I burn avg 400-600 calories on a wkday through daily runs alone. On wkend day, especially during marathon training I burn 1000 calories upwards (depending on distance). Add my other cardio workout in the a.m. hours. I'm a self-confessed adrenaline junkie who does not eat much. I lose weight much faster than I will gain. I am NOT stick thin...far from that. Still have curves, great behind, shapely legs but when I lose weight it shows in my face.

I have to take into consideration that getting older (almost 45 y.o) and even though I may have the body of a 20 y.o. it is a growing concern that my poor diet over the years may be potentially cause health problems down the road. So, if I can do better by eating a well balanced meal each day and still continue with my cardiovascular activities, then that should keep me well balanced health wise.

This thread discussion helps as it forces me prepare a meal and importantly eat, even if I am not feeling hungry.

Have you ever consulted a doctor about having a low appetite? Maybe there are natural remedies like herbal teas that could help you.

Re: Healthy Eating Support - Week of 21 Feb 2011

BS what's the story on eggs?

I personally love my medium boiled eggs as a snack if i have calories left over and i still hungry. but I hear conflicting reports about too many egg yolks per week.
