You are doing so well, I'm only doing this for exercise....4.4 miles a week is fantastic. My ultimate goal is 3 miles 3 days a week.... I decided that I would wait until I have completed week three to add Pilates back to my routiine... I know I need strength training and that will help...
Have a great day!

I think that's a great goal - lots of people just mindlessly try to add more and more miles, for no reason. I can't remember if I pointed out that I ran for seven months with no loss or even gaining and then recently it all kicked in and I've lost over thirty pounds in a really short period of time - I'm losing 3-4 pounds a week now. Your body may just need the extra carbs to adapt - running puts an enormous amount of stress on the body.
