Just because you can't do a push up doesn't mean you're not strong. It's normally the down and back up part that gets people. Break it down in baby steps and do it in the reverse order. Lay flat on the floor and push yourself up. Kneel if you have to, to get to start position. Eventually build up to regular pushups. OR…

I'd log it as Circuit Training here on MFP. You probably burn more/less depending on the exercises, but its a good estimate since it's based on your personal size.

Use this diagnosis as Rock Bottom. DON'T wait for it to get worse becausse it probably will progress. You can do this!!! You already have half the battle down...you work out regularly! Dont wait for the day when you have perfect eating habits. Take it one meal at a time. Make good decisions for that meal. And if you slip…

Hey everybody. Feel free to add me, I need some help with motivation! I'm married with an 11 yr old daughter. I grew up playing sports and working out. Three years ago, I tore my ACL and just haven't gotten anywhere close to my old activity level. And in the mean time, I've picked up horrible eating habits!!! After 25 lb…

I totally feel you about being ashamed of your body. I'm in the same boat. Let's motivate each other! That's awesome that you lost the 60 lbs before. You can get back to your goal weight. Just takes time. A little bit about me. I've gained about 25 lbs in the last 3 yrs. My weight will yo-yo like crazy. I will do great and…

I don't know what you're eating, but I definitely think you should pick quality over quantity. One of my girlfriends doesn't eat a whole lot of calories per se, but she eats very clean. Lots of veggies, protein and complex carbs. And what she eats is very filling. 3 oz of grilled chicken and and a large baked sweet potatoe…

Hey Ashley. You may be burning more than you think. Try using circuit training or even weigh lifting to log your workout, depending on what your bootcamp tends to use for weights. If its lighter hand weights, I'd use the circuit training. If it's 35 lb curl bars, I'd use weight lifting. I personally like not eating back…

Where to start!! Not liking pictures of myself because the image didn't match what I thought I looked like. My eleven year old doesn't remember me being skinny, even though I was a good 25 pounds lighter just 3 yrs ago! I have very few clothes that fit because I hate trying new clothes on. But I had been in denial for so…

Marshall's was the best place. I found Endless youth at Walmart but they stopped selling it. :( You can get Vita K solution online but it costs more there.

I'm Filipino and have very dark skin. So I tend to scar easily. My stretch marks were horrible, wide and bright red or pink! Even after a few years and applying cocoa butter lotion every day, they just would not fade! But I've learned that Marshall's sells some creams that have helped! They have Strivectin which is name…
