I get the same pain when I jog or run after long periods of inactivity; I want to believe it's just a muscle cramp because it has never been worse than just a stabbing pain that goes away with a bit of rest and stretching. Have you tried core stretches before runs?

Does McDonald's still do the free meals with every working shift? When I worked there (back in 2005/2006) for 4 hours of work you got an 'A' meal (equivalent to a happy meal sans toy, or side salad), and for 4.5+ hours you got a 'B' meal (any combo on the menu, except the Double Quarter Pounder, and maybe not the big…

Why do you want to ditch bread and those other foods? Is it because of the gluten? If so, please keep in mind that unless you have a gluten sensitivity, intolerance, or allergy (all pretty rare, believe it or not), you will feel little to no difference after cutting them from your diet. If it's because they are high-carb…

Exactly. Food is food. As long as it's healthy, and not super processed, why worry? Just don't eat so much that the majority of your intake is protein (unless advised by your doctor).

It's the truth. I've learned that completely eliminating the 'unhealthy' food that we so intensely crave is a surefire way to make us gorge on it. If you make it taboo, you will want it even more.

I'm glad you posted those links. I'm back on here for the 3rd time after failing maintenance once I reached my goal. I recently quit my retail job with lots of activity to work as a freelance artist at home, and that means LOTS of sitting! And, well, housework and cooking too. But I had set my net cals at 1500, thinking…

Anything under 1200 calories and your body will begin to shut down. This is seriously not advisable and you will be killing your body. THIN =/= HEALTH. Yes, I understand this is for religious purposes, but my Muslim friends ALWAYS enjoy their celebratory meal after dusk.

Are you weighing every day? If so, don't! Pick a day and specific time every week to weigh, your results will be more accurate this way. Try measuring too! I weigh on Wednesday mornings after 'relieving' myself. Been accurate so far.

Twenty-Three and a half and married, don't want kids either. My husband has been discussing the possibility of a vasectomy since he doesn't want them either. We both love kids, and we have many nieces and nephews, but we also love our kid-free life so much more. We can do more with it! When we get an itching to spawn, we…

Knowing how to make a basic pilaf with multiple kinds of grains has saved me as a vegetarian! They're so easy to make and super easy to change up while staying low calorie! (: But since it's summer, here's a good page on grilling as a vegetarian! http://www.vegetariantimes.com/article/20-ways-to-grill-fruits-amp-veggies/…

I get bored quickly at work, and I'm one of those people who eat out of boredom. So, instead of grabbing a snack I just drink my water until I'm not hungry anymore! :) I have a liter/20oz-ish stainless steel bottle that I carry with me at work, and I make mini goals whenever I fill it up. "Okay, I'm going to drink this…
