From marathoner to cancer survivor

posted by Azrunner09 on 11:12 am

 Hi: I just join to this group today, because I want to share my experiences using my Polar S625X and continue monitoring my progress during this time, after I was diagnostic cancer prostate. For  2 months out of exercises , I'm returning to the field  and I want to reach the level  I had before my diagnostics. Now my goal is to become competitive again and lose few pounds, just by exercising without diet or supplements and get better health running 10 K every day , 6 days a week.

3,500 calories = 1 lb  so  I add net calories up at the end of the week and hope it matches with my weight loss for the week.  My only complaint about the daily plate is showing me that I can eat more calories that day because I burned off  700, 800 calories .  Do I really need to increase how much I'm eating........don't think so, however, it's nice to know I can when I want to.  It's a balancing act with the food. 
 You'll do fine whether you eat those 350 calories or not.  Good Luck!
