Off Topic-I am a NP, but when I worked as a nurse the field was so oversaturated. Everyone wants to become a nurse. They just fool people into thinking there is currently a nursing shortage. Back on topic- this "hang out" thing is apparently very common with the 35 and younger age group. I have been asked out on dates for…

I wish BMI never existed.IMO, body fat percentage is a better gauge of health/fitness. There are people out there that have muscle mass but low body fat percentage. BMI doesn't account for that.

I've been single my entire life. Between school, being introvert and shy, and not having the self-confidence, I never was able to develop a relationship with a man on any level. I went on my first date at age 24 years old, but I am not willing to settle until I get the man I want to be with.

I've seen people get great results with both... Its all about preference though, and how much time and pain you are willing to go through.

Honestly, gaining weight in a dorm seems almost inevitable unless you cook your meals completely. I gained the most weight in college than in any time of my life. I am only 25, but still I gained 50 lbs in college in 3 1/2 years.. It was so difficult to lose weight too, since I was always studying and eating on the go…

I am starting a P90x/ Insanity/Asylum 1/2 hybrid starting the last week of December. Add me so I can keep up with your progress!

This is so inspirational to see someone my height with similar weight loss goal. You look amazing, and I can't wait until I get where you are.

Honestly, settling only brings resentment. I am 25 years old, and I never dated because I couldn't find a man who met my expectations of an ideal partner. However, a few months ago I met a guy who can fulfill my most basic needs. I have accepted that his personality is difficult at times but not entirely in a bad way. He…

Well he basically did what you wanted to do..However, he probably could have been a little bit frugal in terms of cost.

I personally wouldn't weigh myself until 2-3 days after your period...

Great job! You look great!

I usually watch the television at the gym or look at other people....

This is INCORRECT! Elevated LFTs can be caused by many things including medications, alcohol, cancer, gallstones, and get this EXERCISE!!! I have had elevated liver enzymes for at least 5 years, and I don't have a non-alcohol fatty liver disease. I had normal ultrasound other than gallstones present in my gallbladder. My…

Well if you suddenly started to diet and exercise, it will be easier to lose weight. However, your body will eventually not respond to the same amount calorie deficit. You will either have to switch up your workout or calories. Happens a lot with chronic dieters.

I always eat dinner and breakfast in bed.. I must sleep with the door closed; otherwise I get nervous someone will try and hurt me in the middle of the night.

I am 25, and I didn't go out on my first date until this past August. The guy was a loser, and was only in it to have sex. Before that I was into online dating. Match.com/Chemistry etc. I gave up on men. I didn't know what to do...I felt if something is meant to happen, it will happen.. One month after swearing off men I…

As a medical professional I recommend asking YOUR DOCTOR. This question should not be answered by anyone who doesn't know your medical history and extent of cardiovascular disease. Your welcome!

Abstinence...no side effects; inexpensive, and no worries with it..I actually love it..

I'm 5'9 1/2, and I thought I looked good around 180 in high school. My body composition has changed due to strength training. My goal is around 175-180. When I was lower than that people said I looked anorexic in my face.

Since I've been losing, my periods have actually become irregular and more PMS symptoms..I have no clue why..I'm only mid 20s.

I'm a virgin also, so it doesn't bother me. I'm more annoyed that he flip flopped on it. Either you are or you are not. No in between...I don't know why he flip flopped though. That's why I'm confused. There are plenty of men with experience that are probably lame in bed.

The thing is he told me he was a virgin first when we were kissing. I sort of joked he probably slept with more people than I did then he "confessed." Then he said he was waiting for the right girl. I asked him again the same night, and he said he was telling the truth. Then I told him two weeks later him I was actually a…

Can someone pull the medical license from this Doctor? Just absurd!

Early 30s. I asked him again later the night he told me he was a virgin, and he said he was...Me thinks he lied about not being a virgin because he rarely has a woman in his life....

Then p90x is probably your best bet. Insanity will help you lose weight and fat, but you won't gain any muscle with it.

What are the goals you are trying to accomplish?

We are spending more time together, however, he is very busy because of his job requirements being a doctor. He told me that I couldn't be his first priority right now, but he will make time for me more often. Physically we are closer; no sex yet because I want to be sure he actually is someone who is worth my time. The…

I got great results with Ripped in 30..I wasn't ripped, but I lost about 8 lbs in two months, and it broke my plateau.

Just dating!

WOW! Great job!
