You could go with a friend/sibling! Gym buddies make it a lot less intimidating, and you can help each other with weights, treadmills, etc. (: My friend and I usually end up laughing a lot, so my experience has been pretty fun. I used protein shakes to gain weight at one point, and they helped with muscle gain after the…

No. I've been struggling with being underweight my entire life due to a couple of autoimmune diseases. My doctor said I've had one of them since I was born, and the other he said something about it popping up recently (PCOS. So, like, only two/three years. Blood test for both.) Both diseases normally make the person…

Okay, no, I can see how it would be harping and get annoying. I'll take your guys' advice. (: I do the research before I tell them. It's apparently outdated, though. And it's more of the ingredients I put in the things I make. They like my dinner-type food, but my muffins and cookies they're reluctant to try because I…

Oh, I'm sorry! I assumed you were because of the angry face. xD I see what you're saying though. I thought about it a bit more, and yeah, I only know a little of what they'd actually eat. And making that all the time would get boring. Thank you! I'll ask before I assume next time (: And I don't know, the small nation in…

Profile picture: that is my bed, and that is my mirror reflecting my bed. And that is my cat. The rod was from another room we were renovating, and those are my necklaces hanging on the wall. They don't give me cleaning advice, because I'm the one who cleans the house. Back to the original topic. I don't know why you're…

I thought it'd be a simple start, the whole white carb thing. It's still rocky in my mind, but I'm getting a better understanding. Thanks guys. (:

Okay. But, I still don't know why it was wrong of me to say that. White carbs are the bad ones, right? The simple carbs. Shouldn't we be consuming less of those, and more of the complex?
-
I don't understand how that's wrong, can you explain, please?

And thank you for your opinions.

But it's not negative. I haven't forced anything on them, they've only asked, and I've answered. I haven't said my opinions of their food to their face, only on here.

Protein takes longer to digest in the body than do carbs. That's where the fuller idea comes from. It triggers certain hormones to make you feel more satisfied. If you want to cut sugar, switch to things like a black bean and veggie scramble/hash, and Greek yogurt. It's balanced in both protein and carbs and will help you…

There are at home exercises you can do, like push ups, and all that. Scheduling those in the morning, usually works out for the best, and keeps you on track. You can always use Sundays for planning out meals for the week, and if you need to, set an alarm to remind yourself to eat.

Anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour. It depends on how big the meal is, whether or not I'm having a conversation, how much time I have, and how hungry I am.
