Congratulations! You're headed for health. A few tips to help...Running 4 miles every other day will be sufficient to go to your natural, healthy weight. Mix in weights on the off days, and rest on the seventh. Don't forget you should be measuring your body fat percentage, not total weight. As you work out you also will be building size and density of muscle. Monitor your joints, especially knees, make sure your ankles are aligned, run on grass and barefoot when possible. Track coaches are familiar with these things, as are some doctors and trainers. A smooth, even stride on the balls of your feet is best. Well cushioned shoes actually train you to land on your heel, this jars your joints more.

• If you run that much your metabolism will speed up to accommodate the calories used and your appetite will also. Even if you eat a lot more you will still be burning it off. My advice would be to run with a light stomach and not eat after for the next hour to hour and a half as that is when you burn the most calories. Fat isn't that bad as long as you have toned muscle underneath which will make you look lean. You should do some weight training also with light to moderate weights. Weighted side blanks(side abs), side dumbbell lateral raises(forearms), and weighted lunges to build the back of your thigh.
