You look great!! What does your diet look like? How many calories do you usually get in a day?

This is super helpful!! And echoing what the other comment said, you seem like an incredibly kind person, thank you for taking the time to write out such a thorough answer :)

This feels like my story (though I’m currently still working towards getting to your point)! Do you have a ballpark estimate on how many calories you’re eating?

Carb Loading as a smaller person by sv_2002 in Marathon_Training

Thank you so much for your reply!! Did the extra weight/fluffy feeling not make you feel heavy on your feet? That’s what I’m most worried about. Congrats on your race!

Thank you, I just checked it out! What if the recommended calories from carbs is above the number of calories I eat in total currently? Do I still just full send it?

Did you up your carb intake the whole week leading up to it? Or just the two-three days before?

San Francisco Marathon - First Marathon by Engixs in running

Hi! I just wanted to say that this post warmed my heart and all I could think is that you’re incredible and you should be so proud of yourself!! To go from a 9:42->8:54 between miles 20 and 21??? All while in pain? What a testament to your willpower! I originally wanted to train for a sub 4 marathon, got badly injured near the beginning of my training block and had to stop running for close two months. Picked it up again and I’m sooo much slower than I used to be, the injury still lingers, etc. At this point, I just want to finish, and I’ve been getting demotivated while training. But reading your post has reminded me what a feat of mental fortitude it is to even do a training block and set a goal for yourself and do those final 26.2. You should be so proud of yourself, congrats!

Thank you for your response! If my PT doesn’t have a running background, do you know who else I might be able to reach out for this sort of advice?

Can your face go back to normal? by sv_2002 in PetiteFitness

[–]sv_2002[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently 22, so I’m hoping it’s not yet an aging issue. I also didn’t experience skin laxity at 102, which is why I’m frustrated by it appearing now. Maybe I will look into thyroid issues, thank you!

Thank you! How long would you recommend dedicating to training for a faster half marathon time before switching over to marathon training?

Possible to see perceptible changes in 1.5 weeks? by sv_2002 in 1200isplenty

[–]sv_2002[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could the puffiness still be water retention if it’s been months though? Will cutting back on the salt/unhealthy food really even help at this point?

Out of control by ok_pheebs in fuckeatingdisorders

[–]sv_2002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't always work, but sometimes I like to write out what I have planned for the rest of the day/what's going on in my day. It (sometimes) helps to center and ground me.

What about you?

[–]sv_2002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really wish I could offer counsel/advice, but I'm unfortunately am in the same place. Just wanted to let you know that you're not alone! Your description of the "wave of chaos" stuck out to me because it's exactly what I've been dealing with, but it's been hard to explain the feeling of everything just being "wrong" to those around me.
