I feel your pain girl,last yr in June I was diagnosed with a horrible uti that didn't go away. Ended up going to a Uro-gyno that said it was most likely Interstitial cystitis. The diagnosis is so depressing especially since it causes pain and it is so hard to explain the pain besides a constsnt uti pain ! :( I too have…

Hi there,I don't have hashimotos but I do have an autoimmune condition called Interstitial Cystitis that causes bladder frequency/pain. I lost the bulk of my weight in 2014 but recently due to pain and not being able to work out as hard,I have gained ten lbs back. Feel free to add me! :)

Hey there :) I have been on mfp for years but I recently have gained back 10 of my lbs lost and my clothes are super tight. I've started logging again so I am looking for new active friends that log daily as well! I'll add you and anyone else that is looking for actively logging friends,feel free to add me as well!

I have used c4 by cellucor and I like it but if I take more than one scoop I get a strange tingling all over my body and will start to feel nauseous. So I try my best not to use it if I can help it. I think a cup of coffee and maybe something high protein would work better or a banana with pb depending on the length of…

I eat what I would say is mostly a clean eating diet or lots of veg/fruit and meats. I would imagine that the regimented clean eaters would approve of that sugar for sure. I still use the old school granulated sugar in my coffee. It's all in moderation, ya know? Good luck!

I just use the lightly active option on here and never enter any of my workouts but I do wear an hrm just to kind of guesstimate what exactly I am burning. :) But I am a total sedentary lazy butt besides my workouts.I have a polar ft4 and it works well for that!

When in doubt,youtube that *kitten*! http://youtu.be/W5LI10sFK3c

Check out nerdfitness.com thebettyrocker on youtube Fitnessblender.com has a ton of free bodyweight videos. Or I have heard that a book called Convict Conditioning has a really good bodyweight program. Good luck

I like the look of 20-25% on a guy :) <3 as for me, I started out as a 5,am currently a 4 I guess and would ultimately like to be 8!

Lmao I can't even keep a straight face while reading this.But seriously,once you have birthed kids and had your whole body on display it is hard to keep fart and poops to yourself. Btw I would much rather "fart" then whisper in my panties....gross!!

Haha I totally spaced and just updated mine yesterday and got really depressed at how much lower my calorie burns were! :p

Haha yeah...October has been one big *kitten* sugar fest so I am trying my best to be on my best behavior this month. I just want to feel better and when I eat like crap,I feel that way also. :s So,I am wanting to focus on my nutrition through the holidays. We'll see how that goes.

I assume the majority of your food is bought at whole foods or other local organic chains? Our food budget for a 2 adults and 2 children aged 10 &5 is about $800 including my gas but not including times that we have ate out. We shop at costco quite a bit and I have noticed some months are higher when we have to restock our…

System of a Down-Bounce or any kind of death metal really. :blush:

Oh,I love amazing grass products and pumpkin spice. I'll have to check it out. :smile:

I eat leafs such as spinach and chard..that is as close to a shrub I'll get!! ;) :p

Perhaps a girdle would work for your fupa?

I've only seen the 0 and 2% Fage in our local stores. Where are you finding a full fat version?

I loved the first book in the series but I could not get through the second book because it seemed like it lost it's edge. Maybe I need to give it a second chance!

Thanks for the recommendation! I just downloaded the ebook. ????????

I just finshed Doctor Sleep,the beginning of the book was slightly disturbing if you are super sensitive like me but I really enjoyed the book! Have any of you read The Fever series by Karen Moning? That series gave me such a book hangover, I couldn't read any other series for a while! ????????

I'm trying to understand what you are saying but there are so many errors it is hard. Are you asking if you will gain 5 lbs because you had a cheat meal that was 1100 calories or your entire day was 1100 calories? My high days are usually around 2-2500 calories and I usually maintain my weight. I wouldn't stress over one…

Isn't toast meant to be buttered? :-o Just weigh out your portion and make sure your butter is soft so it spreads easier! I try to eat real food so stay far away from margarine. I say kick that ish to the curb and use buttah! :-)

Dude,aquariums are rad!

I'd love a few new friends that eat and lift as well. I'm mostly doing bodyweight exercises (pullups,pushups) right now but have high hopes for lifting in the near future. :-) I eat about the same as well in the 1600ish range. A little bit older and heavier though! 5'4 ,31 and 148 lbs. Add me and I'll add you back!

Did you just get it pulled or you went through actual surgical removal? The healing time is vastly different. I had my lowers removed in February and they came out in pieces. It took the full two weeks to even feel normal enough to work out. I have also had a tooth pulled and was smoking and eating like normal the next…

I love fitnessblender but have never actually bought the ebook for their challenges. I know they are super cheap though and I love how they share their stuff for free! What does the beginner challenge consist of? Thanks and good luck on your challenge.

This is the song that never ends,yes it goes on and on my friends....ugh now I have that song in my head,make it stop!! ;)

For a second I thought you were saying you were all of the above lol! I pitied you for a minute there wondering what in the world you ate...this is when reading comprehension skills kick in baha. :D

I could be sleeping too but it is still fairly early on the West coast. ;) Good luck on your first day. If you go over just start again the next day and so on. You've got this!
