I haven't purged yet. On day 4 and going strong, but I still like to go stand in my pantry and stare at the bread and chips and pasta and cereal.

I also run... well I am learning to run. I have been taking an endurance class for about 9 months now. I am currently trying to get my mile under 9min. I struggle with exercise induced asthma that really acts up when I am running longer distances. I did complete my first 5k mud run a few months back.

Where's my double under ladies out there?

<===== no tankini, no boy shorts, and NO COVER UP this year!

i have been doing crossfit for just over one year now. 4-5 times a week. nothing has ever pushed and motivated me to want to be healthier, stronger, more energized. i started there weighing over 200lbs, and not able to even run around the building one time without getting winded and having to stop. i'm down almost 25lbs…

i have done them and the special k shakes for breakfast options before. it is a quick and easy option to grab on the way out the door. i'm sure there are better and more filling things you can choose for your meal option, but i enjoyed the convenience, and honestly, they taste good. as long as i didn't gulp it down and…

you can target strength training to certain muscle groups, but you cannot target weight loss to a specific part of your body.

For my husband and me, we spend about $60-90 a week on groceries. The price fluctuates based on if we choose to get seafood, or splurge at the farmer's market, or have to re-stock on some bulk items. We also eat out about 5 meals a week: friday lunch, lunch and dinner on saturday, breakfast and lunch on sunday. This week,…

after viewing that site, i feel like i need to eat an extra sandwich in protest to their skewed image of 'fat'.

whenever you eat out, you consume high amounts of sodium.... it's the same, by the way, if you eat anything frozen or prepackaged at home. sodium causes you to retain water. try not to obsess about the scale. the body fluctuates for many reasons from day to day. at your size, i would take starting measurements, work my…

if i don't get pregnant in the coming months, i would like this to be the summer of the bikini! i've never been comfortable at the beach because of my size. i'm down 23 lbs so far and have another 6 (been doing a lot of weight training to tone as i go) to go. i'm not the best at logging every thing every day, but i work…

anyone out there?

Female 27 y/o 5'10" Highest Weight - somewhere between 205-210 :-/ Lowest Adult Weight - 170 (college) Current Weight - 182 Goal Weight - 175 (really any three digit number that starts with a 17_) I'm currently in the same size clothing that I was in at 173lbs. I've got more muscle and definition this time around.

From what I know, a lot of weight gain is not necessary. You only need an additional 300-500 calories a day. And check with your doctor, but if you are already active, then usually it is perfectly fine to continue working out. I know someone who continued her crossfit classes until week 31 of pregnancy. Good luck with your…

This. People complain about it being extreme and dangerous. Not if you learn how to do it right. Any activity can injure you if you don't do it right. Running, using machines, playing sports. If you don't like crossfit, don't do it. If you do, then great! Like me, you are getting a full body workout that pushes you.

mine stalks me, my husband, my family, and any of my friends who happened to accept her friend request on facebook. if i post anything, or anyone else's posts a photo of me.... without fail, she will have commented on it or liked it within 10 minutes of it being there. she does the same to my husband, my sister in law (my…

make friends with your crockpot. boneless turkey breasts, turkey and chicken meatballs, soups, chicken wings and thighs, roasts, etc. on sunday, chop up tons of veggies into 1inch pieces (zucchini, sweet potato, red pepper, brussel sprouts, broccoli, cauliflower, whatever you like). foil two sheet pans, spread veggies out…

i'm 5'9.5". i originally set my goal weight to 180. i estimated that being that weight would get me comfortably into size 8 pants. as i got closer to the goal, i decided to lower it slightly to 175. my goal clothing size is still the same, i just really want to see the 170s.

before crossfit, i couldn't walk up my 3 story townhouse without getting winded and having my knees crack. i could run up and down them 10 times over with energy to spare now. i credit that to crossfit and crossfit endurance. i was brought 'kicking and screaming' by my husband at first, and now i go twice as much as he…

Thanks for the responses so far. I was on the pill for almost 4 years. I don't know if that is considered a long time or not, and therefore needing time for my body to readjust. BMI charts will say that I am overweight, but I am currently the healthiest and fittest I've ever been in my life. Those things don't really…

I am ttc as well. I work out quite rigorously - crossfit 4-5 times a week. It is a very high intensity workout. I asked my OBGYN about if I needed to make any adjustments to my working out. I explained the type of workouts I do. His response - exercising like that is only going to help your body. The healthier you are, the…

there are studies that say once an onion is cut into, it can collect surrounding toxins. then in turn you eat those toxins. during the days of the plague, people would chop onions and place them in bowls on the floor in every room of their house to help collect the toxins before they could reach the people living in the…
