I'm wanting to get more into hiking now that I'm in WA. The hiking in Indiana was just sad. :)

I honestly don't deal with this much anymore, but... I well-timed "hell no" goes a long way. Or if the situation warrants it, an offended "why would you ask that/say that?" to try to convey the rudeness of the assumption. I try to get people to understand that the assumptions they are making are ignorant at best, and quite…

I'm in Vancouver, WA. Was initially looking in Seattle, but found a job in Vancouver first. That one didn't work out, but led to finding a job I love with a company that is very fitness oriented. I am definitely loving it now that I got life stuff back in order. Been starting to go to hiking meetups and such. So much fun.

Hi all! I am 30, no kids, and have permanently blocked the pathway that would lead to me being able to have bio kids. I don't hate kids or anything, and technically had a stepkid for a while, but that's always been more of an aunt type relationship. I am solo, enjoy living alone. No pets (although I am dog sitting this…

The ratio is more important than the actual numbers. My numbers are very similar to yours and I had a conversation with my doctor about it. She noted that that although LDL was above the "recommended" level, the high HDL meant she wasn't at all concerned about it.

I take magnesium per my neurologist's instruction. I also take B vitamins per my endocrinologist's instruction. Both of which help me feel well enough to track my calorie intake and be more active. Other than that for my specific biology, no. I guess maybe placebo could help? ;)…

I really like cold brew plain.

If not PMS, ovulation? I get ravenous during both of those times of month.
-
I usually only have 2-3 days where I am ravenous right before my period. And I tend to have a eating pattern that cycles calories anyway. So I'll just eat a ton those few days and then not eat much of anything a few days over the next week. Which works out since I am generally feeling bad and not super hungry during my…

It took me a while to figure out the way of eating that works best for me, but I do a sort of mix of 5:2 and 16/8 (really more like 19/5) usually. And throw in some longer fasts every few months. My body just does really well with long-ish periods of not eating due to digestive issues. It really is whatever works best for…

When I was 230 lbs (36 BMI), I thought there was no way that I could ever be a normal BMI. Now that I'm down to almost 170 lbs, I know that is BS. I only need to lose another ~15 lbs to get to normal BMI. And there is still plenty of fat on me that I know it is not only possible, but extremely likely that I will get well…

My boss has diastasis recti. She did not have it after her first child, but did after her second. Maybe something to look into? Caveat: I have no kids and and know nothing more about this.

I track my weight (almost) daily. It has been absolutely fascinating to see the monthly trends. I always gain about 5 lbs the week before and it comes off a couple days into my period. So definitely water weight. I do tend to crave salty carbs more than usual the week before, so I'm sure that has something to do with it.…

5'7 and 178. Anyone feel free to add me as well.
