I am almost 27 years old and I have never had a licence. I walk mostly everywhere, including to the gym and back, which is about the same length as you from your gym. I also take my dog for multiple walks per day and a few days a week do a 10 k around the river. Our bodies are meant to move a lot and can adapt to quite a…

Every single vitamin and mineral is a micronutrient. Perhaps you got macronutrient and micronutrient confused.

Omg what is a Harry Potter challenge and how do I join?! @Katiemacewen422

@MrsVoid Hey there! If you are able to manage what you eat, then you'll be just fine and be able to lose weight without being overly active. I am a Muay Thai kickboxer and I love doing strength and conditioning at the gym. For years I trained 1-2 times per day. I was very active, but lost no weight! In fact it was only…

I can't speak for gluten intolerance. I'm on the fence with that one. But lactose intolerance is a very real thing and a lot more people are lactose intolerant than you'd think. Everyone produced lactase (the enzyme responsible for digesting lactose which is milk sugar) when they're babies and they produce a lot of it to…

Nope, you can't choose where the fat comes off. You can choose where you build muscle and tone up, but you don't choose where your fat comes off at all. Not even a little bit. Fat loss works genetically. Your DNA decides that. Let's say, for example, your DNA (your body's blueprint) says "when we start gaining weight we…

Vegetarian here who has gone through all these same problems! I've tried all different diets, different eating techniques etc, and really the only thing I've ever found that has been sustainable, has given me weight loss AND given me energy at the same time is paying attention to my BMR. If you're eating 1300 calories per…

Thank you :)

Thank you everyone! I feel the best I've felt in a long time :)

Hahah that gave me a good laugh. :D

Thank you so much for the kind words :)

That's awesome! My son and his father are First Nations so that would be a great thing for my son to do. Thanks for the tip!!

That kayak trip sounds awesome! Do you think it'd be suitable to do with a toddler?

This is amazing!! Thank you so much. I'm sure this will really help us out a lot.

That is amazing! Thanks so much for the tip. I've heard great things about the kootenays. Definitely looking forward to it now!

Also, I'm fairly certain Goldstream campground is where we camped. It was such a nice campsite. I loved it!

This is fantastic!! I actually plan to spend as much time as possible on the island! I had always wanted to visit the island, and I finally got the chance to this past summer and I fell in love. I didn't get enough time there though so I want to be there a lot. So this is so awesome! Do you know of any free camping spots?…

I have not heard of either of those! But they are definitely on my list of places to check out, thanks!

Haha I guess it's more like, the further to either coast you go the cooler the people get :p

You could totally help! We have always wanted to check out the east coast, and will probably go that way next year! I'm sure there's lots of cool stuff to explore.

Haha! I find the further west you go the cooler the people get ;)

Yes, lake lousie is AB but it's definitely on our list of places to stop!! AB or BC, don't matter to me as long as there are trees, mountains, lots of water and cool people :D

Lol yes, I tried an internet search. We've been planning the trip for months so we have looked lots of stuff up. But BC is a big place! Lots of stuff to do. I'm sure there are places to experience that I can't find by doing a search so just wanted to see if anyone else has done some awesome things, found some cool hiking…

Thank you so much to everyone else for all your kind words! It sure makes a gal feel special :)

Hey there! I did 8 weeks of sessions with a hypnotherapist (which was WILD! I highly suggest) and from then on I've just been doing my own. She gave me a recording of her to listen to, but I also listen to the ones on YouTube. I found the sessions in person to be the most beneficial as you talk back and forth with the…

Oh I absolutely love that!! Thank you so much. A Phoenix is a beautiful creature. This means a lot. <3

The 2010 American Dietary Guidelines suggest the following: Carbs: 45-60% of calories Protein: 10-35% of calories Fat: 20-35% of calories To figure out what your calorie goal is, find out Your BMR or Basal Metabolic Rate. Your BMR is the amount of calories your body burns at rest over a 24 hour period. So in other words,…

Thank you so much! That means a lot :)

Thank you so much for your kind words

Hi there! Just reading through the comments and the first couple things I thought was "I don't think this person is eating enough protein" and also you mentioned you don't know why you feel full quickly after running! When it comes to eating after training, it's best to do it slowly. Throughout the day there's a whole lot…
