im pretty sure i would be way overweight if i didnt run
and running keeps me mindful of what i put into my body. like if i eat like crap, i will run like crap, and thats not acceptable, so it forces me to eat fairly healthy (with the occasional junk binge).

for dinner tonight i had a bagel with cream cheese, a veggie burger, a bowl of cereal, a toaster strudel, a cookie, and im still hungry.

running makes me really hungry to

haha i eat sooooo much...and whatever i want to and i am far from fat...ya but i do try to eat heathlier when i am in season

I prefer not eating at all

mmm protein

dude i eat like a tonnnnnnnnnnn. lol when we have pasta nights everyone on our team has at least 4 plates overflowing with amazing pasta and like 10 breadsticks and a lot of chocolate milk. my mom always gets frustrated when i have the team over cuz she has to spend so much money on food cuz we raid every house and eat all their food. When I'm off like my two weeks or w/e inbetween seasons i don't watch what i eat as much and i always gain like at least 3 lbs. but then i start running and its all good. i love food.

at our pasta dinner someone made some homemade sourdough bread and the varsity girls team (13 of us) ate 4 LOAVES of bread...they guys only ate two

Varsity is 7

I've always eaten a lot (I was the 5th boy my father had, and none of them had eaten nearly as much as I). Our Gorcery bill for just me and my (oldish) mother is usually over $100.

yeah anyway do you mean high school team has 13 girls because varsity is top 7

i eat A TON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i used to be fat. lol so this is awesome eating as much as i used to and being able to run decent times.

here you can bring 10 varsity girls to compete
and then they take the 5 girls who finished the best for the team

a couple friends && I went through a whole pack of double stuffed oreos with PB in like 30 min. I've gotta admit that I wasn't the top contributor though. I ate like 2 maybe.

i love oreos and pb its one of my favorite snacks.

i food! lol i probably eat at least 3,000 calories per day.

I've been really active this week and my stomach has been growling like crazy. I've been eating more && more though. ://

last night we went to a pizza place and i ate almost a whole pizza - two pieces i eat like a man

I can eat a whole pizza. =/

my friend can eat 15 full slices.

I have a real overeating problem... I eat a ton because I'm always hungry, and recently I've gained some weight... I'm not fat, and my BMI is still ok, but I'm definately not as skinny as I used to be. It's not that I eat unhealthy food, it's just that I eat waaaaaayyyy too much healthy food. luckily it hasn't really affected my running that I can tell... but I'm sort of wondering if I would be faster if I was carrying a little less extra weight.

^^^Eating disorder in the making. You are fine. You don't need to loose weight.

Oh no. Don't think like that. If it hasn't affected your running, you're perfectly fine. A little extra might actually be good for you, because you're growing. You're perfect just the way you are, and don't let running affect that.

Yeah, I recognize I need to be careful, but I would like to point out that you don't know how much I weigh, (140lbs, I'm 5'6''... that seems a little heavy to me, because a year ago I weighed 126, and I haven't grown) or really what I look like. But anyway, no worries because I don't have the willpower to change my eating habits too much. And I don't think I'm growing much anymore, because I've already gone past my expected height, and I only grew about 1/8 in. last year.
