  • That's actually a common misnomer because it's presupposing that after you cheat on yourself with your former self you go back to being your former self, which everyone knows is almost impossible. . .
  • I always go with "why not me?" as in, why cant I be the one with his shirt off at the cabin or at the beach and be comfortable. Always been a t-shirt swimmer. Not this summer! When I'm exercising I always say to myself "is this really going to kill me if I finish this mile or two?"
  • go to log an exercise. Write in what you did, they will give suggestions, you can just choose the option to add a new one to your database and they will ask you what you called the exercise, how many minutes and how many calories. Hope that helps!

These all contribute to swelling or edema -- visible swelling and puffiness from fluid accumulation in and around your body tissues. The end result for you is…

  • I am more concerned about the looks I get when I use the restroom just about every hour!
  • I actually researched this because I was worried. I do drink a ton of water and I was worried that I was reaching levels of water intoxication. I've found, through multiple sites, that the body doesn't reach that level until you reach more than 1 liter per hour (obviously everyone is different), I was worried about…
