    Spot reduction is a myth that consists in believing that exercising and training a particular body part will preferentially shed the fat on that part. For example, doing sit-ups is not the best way to reduce subcutaneous belly fat. One cannot reduce fat from one area of the body to the exclusion of others.

    Dirtywater (and all) - I have a BS in Human Biology with an emphasis in Nutritional Sciences, have completed my MS coursework for a MS in Nutrition and Dietetics (I won't officially get the paper until I finish my dietetic internship) and am half-way through my ADA accredited dietetic internship (required before sitting for the RD exam). While I am not a RD yet, I have some experience with nutrition ;) I am not saying I "know it all" but am just responding to the question posted about credentials earlier. I agree you should go see someone who can specialize your diet to meet your needs. Every person is different so there is not a one-size fits all approach to fitness nutrition. I occasionally check this discussion forum and will try to answer questions.

    i run between 100 and 120 miles a month and know next to nothing about nutrition. i eat lots of pasta and stop drinking in the summer, running is more important. i would say eat whatever you want. that is one of the perks of running. in my own case this means i will never be at ideal racing weight, but i was never going to strike fear into the professionals anyway. i love to run and i use it as an excuse to enjoy the rest of life more. note if your diet creates a major deficiency you will start to crave things that meet the need; so just listen to your body and enjoy.
