  • Just in case if you missed this on WebMD (straight from their terms of use) "If you think you may have a medical emergency, call your doctor or 911 immediately.

  • Hmmmm... I eat and sleep in "research" lifestyle. That may sound weird for people who don't know what R&D is all about, but we all can still live in this world because all the breaking through results from these so called "research".
  • How so? Did you do any research before making such statement? I guess not, but fear not, I did that for you. About eating while watching TV http://www.naturalnews.com/025252_eating_research_television.html They did the research on kids as well http://www.rps.psu.edu/probing/kidtv.html They even thought about the solutions…
  • You can promote metabolism by distributing your meal through out the day. Say you eat 3 times a day right now, you can eat 6 times a day. But you need to cut the portion. Don't finish the food just because it's there. Also, don't watch tv or read books while you are eating. Your brain will not realize that you are already…
  • Core workout is the best way. You need to build strong foundation before doing work on other parts.
  • It really depends on the intensity (heart rate) you put to either method. If you can sustain steady jog with 70-85% of your max heart rate and you are not aiming to increase your pace (min/mile), go for it. If not, do #2 but make sure you increase your heart rate to 85-95% when you run. However, #2 will be harder on your…
  • This +1 Those will help minimizing the stress that is applied to your wrists and performing push up like it is supposed to.
  • Getting obsessed is normal but you gotta allow recovery period. As recoiljpr said. The last thing you don't want is to stop working out because you are getting sick or injured due to not enough recovery time. Then stopping the good momentum (drive) you have.
  • Do you have a history of wrist-related injuries? If not, perhaps the muscles around your wrists have not developed yet. Keep doing it. As weak muscle fibers get damaged in the process, the body will replace them with stronger ones. Assuming you consume enough protein. The most important thing about those kind of workouts…
  • Like everybody said, every transition will take some time to get used to. Also, running shoes don't need break-in period.
  • Because I race in triathlon races. I got no choice but to train. :) Most importantly, I like living healthy lifestyle.
  • Try eating raw celery without any dressing. Some studies found that eating it has negative net calories since it takes more energy (calories) to digest it.
  • Medication is the last (LAST) resort. Even though they claim to be not addictive, your mind will constantly craving for them. Train your mind to sleep without thinking what's on tomorrow. Anyway, try yoga. I read that it will help your mind to relax better. Not to mention it helps you to lose weight.
  • Eat homemade food without salt. High sodium intake may/may not be good for you. It depends on your activity level. I'm a triathlete and constantly training, thus I drain my sodium through sweat. I have to replenish my sodium to prevent cramping. But if you don't do anything, sodium is bad for your health in general (high…
  • Try watching re-runs on tv (that you have already watched). It helps your brain to relax since "you already knew the story". I found that very helpful for me.
  • Perhaps it depends on what you put during the first setup. It asked your daily activities. If you chose high activity like me, the app would put carbs, protein and fat on pretty high numbers since those components are energy source. I'm not 100% sure since I just started using this app today. Good luck!
  • Houston as well. I was checking out mfp app to track my calories. It turned out to be a great app. I'm trying to lose 6lbs for my ideal race weight. Good luck to everybody.
