As for the protein shakes, I'm a fan and often have a protein shake for breakfast in addition to a post-workout drink. With that said, I personally feel whole foods are preferable from an overall nutrient standpoint. Are you modifying your supplements (read: vitamins) to ensure you're getting the appropriate nutrients in to your diet?

Even though I lived in the Phoenix area for almost 10 years before moving to Georgia, I never ran there, so I echo your sentiments of running in a "foreign" city. Hope you have lots of fun!

I really liked the feeling of doing this last week and believe incorporating these into my diet is going to be a big help for me." I've done this and found it to be a big help.

I think you just whacked me upside the head (in a good way). Making "I'm going to lose X pounds by Y date" a goal is all fine and good but focusing on the the tried and true activities that help you lose the weight (like you're doing) is probably more effective. I have yet to achieve any of the weight loss goals I've set for myself. It seems I have consistently come up a little short or a little late each time. Maybe a change in perspective is just what I need to plow through to the next level. Thanks! You know what? I think you just whacked me upside the head (in a good way).
