I recently discovered after many trips to the drs and being sick for literally about an entire year straight that I can't have gluten. Looking back, I've always had issues and it explains a LOT for me. I've now been totally gluten free for 6 weeks. I lost 7lbs the first week solely in swelling/inflammation weight. Since…

Yes! It's funny, I actually find biking MUCH harder on my lungs than much else, totally opposite! :) (I think too much cold air comes in when I breathe in thru my mouth) BUT, when running, breathe in thru your nose as much as you can and out thru the mouth. Scarf is a good idea too if that can't happen. Counting breaths…

Bump-Great page! Mine is "Your body keeps an accurate journal regardless of what you write down"

Amazing! Congratulations!! :)

I had a hard time with this as well..I ended up buying a HR monitor to keep track with. Burns a whole lot more than I thought! Good luck! :)

Fabulous job!! You are VERY inspiring!!! :) Keep up the great work!

Women putting on make up in the bathroom BEFORE they go to work out! Witnessed it last night!! WTF?

Friend are truly a god-send in this for that exact reason. I don't have his support with this stuff at home. He will tell me what exactly I need to do and everything I'm doing wrong, as he's shoving 3 PB &J sandwhiches in his mouth the one time of day he eats, but he does agree he and my son should eat better, and they do…

I use Luna bars as a staple sometimes when I need something quick on the go!

For me, yes. My blood pressure goes up within minutes of consuming it. Just depends on what you're going for!

That's amazing and very inspiring! Thanks for sharing!! :)

I worry about this all the time as well. Working out seems to be HUGE! Lotion and water, keeping it hydrated should help. I am in hopes I can keep mine under control without surgery, but I hate feeling all flabby when I start to lose weight. I just need to stick to it longer and see how it play out! Good luck to you! :)

Great idea!

Me too!!!! Somehow I don't think the mirror shows it all like cameras seem to.... Lol :)

Thanks for sharing, you've done a GREAT job! And I love the motivation you give out! :)

Great job!!!

This is awesome! Great job!

Hey we're neighbors! :)

I live in Maine too! But I've never heard of Charleston! I'm in the Lisbon area currently.

You look absolutely AMAZING! GREAT job!!!

Oh and, he bought it himself too! And his minutes!

Never! Of course, I'd be a little jealous as I want an iphone myself! Lol. But I have a 10 year old son and he has a pre-paid trac phone. I struggled with the idea behind it, but now he's getting older and is at an age where he needs a little freedom. My job as a parent is to teach my child how to survive in life on his…

Every 3 months I do mine. Sometimes it's a cut, sometimes it's a trim but it keeps it looking healthy!

Way to be dude, that's excellent!

Nope, I don't diet. For me, that's a waste of time and I'll get off it eventually and gain all the weight back. It's all about the changes, healthier habits and less bad choices. Less food in general. Working out. Just listening to my body. It's sure working for now!

Fake sugar was meant for diabetics and those who can't process regular sugar. Unfortunately it's turned into a popular beverage for people without those health issues as it contains no calories, everyone thinks they'll lose weight and can still have their sodas. I don't know about all the technical aspects of it, however I…
