Great post. Nice to see sistahs supporting each other. I have a relaxer, but don't worry about sweating. I just throw it back in a ponytail and when I am done exercising I wait until it is dry to come it out. I refuse to let my hair get in the way of me working out. Good luck to you guys in 2012. This is our year!0

It is such a blessing to see the Black community embracing healthy living. For so long we have shunned it, thinking it was mainly for White people. It seems Blacks have the highest occurence of almost all chronic diseases. We have to break this cycle starting w/ our own generation. There is a website called "Black Women Do Workout" and they have some beautiful black women who are in tip-top shape and some very delicious recipes.
I started going natural 2 months ago and I workout almost everyday and I sweat ALOT. I blow dry and flat iron my hair, spray oil sheen and it does great! Feel free to add me as well..............0 -
Add me.... I am embracing my 'natural' hair although some days it is a challenge. But I won't let that defeat me.
Rise to the challenge sista's.0 -
Count me in. I have to say the hair is an issue though. I got braids and took 15 pounds off between October and December. I took them out three weeks ago and have cut my workouts in half! I am trying to figure something out. I know I can eat a lot less to compensate for the lack of exercise but it is easier for me to burn 1000 calories a day through exercise than it is to eat less than 1200.0

Awesome job! Last summer I cut my hair short so I wouldn't have the issues with sweating. This year I go to the gym in the mornings in my hard rollers or I just deal. Please add me if you like!
Also, I belong to a FB group called Black Women Do Workout.
I'm also a member of this group...awesome motivation!0 -
