Exercise and weight gain?
I know weight loss is never predictable, and I'm trying to lose 'the last 8 pounds' but I put on a pound this week and am so disappointed. I ate healthy food like I normally do (though since I joined this site I realised I was going over my calories so tried to cut back) and really upped my exercise - I've done 2 yoga…

Torn Muscle
So after 3 doctors and NO answer, I finally talked to My Aunt again today who is a Nurse Practitioner, and she's pretty sure that its what I've been thinking it is and that I've torn the muscle in my abs, underneath my ribs. It started in Dec, and has gotten worse, to the point that when I walk it makes me sick to my…

Alcohol + Exercise?
Does anyone know if this is harmful? Say you have had a couple, and then you (hypothetically, of course) start dancing like a freak so hard that you work up a sweat and you find yourself in your target HR zone for 10-15-20 minutes or so. :blushing: What happens to your body? Do you still get the same benefits of the…

eating your exercise calories
Hey guys - I'm sure this has been addressed (and I HAVE been reading the other threads, ok) but I'm curious: Based on experience, if you (for example), needed 2,000 calories a day to sustain your weight, went on a 1,500 calorie a day diet to lose a lb a week and exercised away 500 calories a day and ate back those 500…

Exercise=Magic!
OK, so maybe this is a lame topic, but. . . I woke up feeling terrible today. What I call full of "bad chemicals" (thank you Kurt Vonnegut. . .wherever you are. . .) Just mean and cranky and uncomfortable in my body. I wanted to do ANYTHING but work out. But, thanks to some wonderful people here, I decided to "just do it".…

Morning, all! I couldn't get a spin bike this am (even though I got through at 5 minutes after the time to call) I am pissed, as there are only two more of this class before summer, but I'm going to turn my lemons into lemonade!

So disappointed ...
I took a cab to the race I was signed up for this morning. The race I have been diligently training for since March. The entrances to the site were so backed up it was impossible for the driver to drop me off near the race start area. He had the nerve to offer to drop me right on the highway, but it seemed too dangerous to…

Good morning, Sun is shinning this morning! Yeah!! I got out and ran my 7k this morning. I saw a scary looking fox, he looked very mange. I struggle a little in the beginning but was okay afterwards. My sciatic nerve did not bother me so I'm hoping it's gone for a little while. How is everyone else doing? Mireille

Victorious Fitness Challenge. . .May 23
Today is weights. Here's my confession. . .I hate weights. Hate them. First off, I feel like I'm a "bulker". . .I still have just enough fat luxuriating around on my arms and legs to cover my definition, so I look bigger, but not more defined (unless I strike a bodybuilder pose) So. . .it's hard to see my results. Also. .…
