I just found your blog and I LOVE IT! I am a new runner, a vegetarian and I can’t wait to read all your stuff! I have a question (as I am not even doing 1/2′s yet) what do you snack on to give you an extra energy boost while running your marathons? A lot of my friends eat the beans :/ Thanks!

Hi Emily, I am a newbie to the running and the health and nutrition but am SO excited about the journey I am taking. What particular foods did you stay away from and eat in excess in the beginning phases of your weight loss? Thanks for your blog, its awesome.

Hi Emily! I was just wondering if you ever finished the series of the “Great Grains”? I started cooking with Millet a lot more and buying bulk grains, thanks to you! I was curious if you have any posts on other grains?
