I changed my setting to loosing one lb per week instead of 2, eating back more of my exercise calories and started upping my weight training with much less focus on cardio. According to MFP I should have been loosing 5+ lbs a week with the low calorie intake and intense workouts and sometimes I wasnt even loosing anything…

this ^^^ with a low glycemic diet because of my personal body chemistry. I also have used a daily method of intermittent fasting mainly so I can eat decent size meals without feeling deprived but there are many other benefits

I fast daily for the past 75 days. I have lost the first 50 lbs of the 150lbs I want to loose using fasting as part of my routine. I eat from 3 to 6 hrs of the day as well as weight training and cardio every other day. I am having great success and will continue to eat this way as I feel so much added energy and am able to…

I am a massage therapist. I also get hip pain. When myself or my clients get hip pain I massage and stretch different areas of the hamstrings, quads, inner thighs, glutes and/or sacrum area (depending on the location of the hip pain). I ,of course, reccomend consulting a qualified massage therapist who specializes in…

type strength training into the cardio section. Its there :wink:

I love being naked. I love to swim naked and let my breasts free to catch a breeze if no public is around. One of my favorite memories is riding topless on the back of my husbands motorcycle on this really pretty and long country road that has no houses on it. So liberating and natural a feeling! My only rule is no naked…

I weigh daily either at home or at the gym as a tool to be more intune with what my body is doing. Although I get a little dissapointment if the number isnt where I thought it should be based upon how I feel and the effort I put in, I dont dwell or feel it is a negetive. I use it to manage what I do differently or the same…

Hi there. I have pcos and would love to mutually support :-)

I went to my local Asian Grocer who said they havent been able to find yam shirataki noodles so I guess my search will have to broaden ;( I did find mung bean noodles that are only 161 cals for a 3.35 oz serving which is low for noodles. The mung bean noodles were really tasty topped with summer squash sauteed with bell…

Im on almost a month of IF and have lost 15lbs. I love it because it definately helps me to stick with a calorie restricted diet, is helping with my insulin resistant disorder and has so many other benefitss like increased energy, clarity and not having to focus on food all day long. Before starting IF it took me 3+ months…

I think its important to surround myself with like energy or at least balance it out a little bit. @ the time I wrote this post there seemed to be a influx of comments and messages that leaned toward the self…

Maybe its a tight muscle like your QL. You could try going to a qualified massage therapist (one that specializes in sports massage) and have them see if they can help. Im a LMT

Hilarious!!!!

I had one session but the technician said it would take 2 sessions a week for over a year and it was just to much money for us. I have a full beard that I shave everyday. The worst is that it has to be a timed shave becuase if I shave before its time I tear my face up. Its a constant juggling. I do find that an aftershave…

I heard running causes heartburn in some folks because of the swishing around of stomach acid. I was wondering you noticed any correlation with your heartburn and the time you are jogging? When I was on met I got heartburn from time to time and always settled it with tums and or a nice ig apple. Hope it goes away for you!!

Im a woman with a big body and an even bigger personality! I have one of those personalities that gets even more vibrant when I feel uncomfortable in order to overcompensate. I end up walking into every situation like I own the place and it puts people at ease. We all judge. Its human nature. The thing that makes judgment…

None of it is a direct reflection on who you really are as a…
