It IS huge. I try to eat 5-6 meals a day because I'm training for a race and burning loads of calories. This is pretty much a favorite of mine. I eat it almost every day, only varying the fruit! But I suppose someone with a lower calorie requirement could half that amount and eat it as a quick snack. |

I buy bulk bags of frozen blueberries and raspberries. I weigh them out into 1 cup servings and freeze them in individual containers. Then, the night before I want to take the snack to work with me, I add 1 cup of low fat Stonyfield farms plain yogurt, along with 1/2 oz of walnuts. Keep it in the fridge overnight. It's delicious, and I know EXACTLY what's in there, which is a big bonus for me. I hate buying those nasty fruit-flavored yogurts and wondering how much fruit is really in there. |

Hi there! Another good resource you may want to check out is coolrunning.com. I did their "Couch to 5K" program a couple of years ago, and it helped to slowly acclimate my body to running again after years of absence. Another thing is to MAKE SURE you're running with good form. Running on your toes, for example, is just asking for a blown knee. You should always strike the ground first with your heel, then roll off your mid foot and toes. I suggest going to a real running store with real running experts, and asking them to evaluate your form. It was emabarrassing for me, but totally worth it in the long run. They will usually do this for free, but while you're there, make sure your shoes are in good shape. Running shoes need to be replaced at an alarming pace, so you may not even be aware that your feet are unsupported. I hope you can reclaim your jogging hobby! Danica
