  • I exercise hard 8-12 hours a week (lifting, biking, running, kickboxing) and use a standing desk. My doctor says the exercise is very important for maintaining energy levels. The standing desk was her idea as well. I honestly cannot imagine how much weight and fat I might have gained without all the exercise. It is a…

  • Hi SkinnyKerinny. How did you know or find out you had adrenal fatigue?

  • I am also a distance runner and gain after long runs. I ran 10 yesterday and was up 3 pounds on the scale this morning. I know how frustrated you are. It will come off though. Your muscles are retaining extra water to repair themselves and your body is hanging on because it has no idea that you aren't going to run 13 miles…
    in 5.6 pound GAIN in 2 days... AHHH! Comment by swadepgh September 2011
  • Hi everyone! I am 5'-6" and my goal is to be between 135-138. I used to be 125-127 and that was a bit too thin for me. I would love to get back to 135 though! Right now I am at 154. =(
