  • I have been on the other side of this. I have been the negative, unsupportive friend unfortunately, but I can admit that now. My senior year of high school, my best friend of nearly 10 years and I embarked on a journey to lose weight, get fit, and become healthy together. We went to the gym together and cooked together,…
  • Hi, my name is Bri! I am also a 20 year old college student. I had the exact same thing my first year of college with my knees. I had a bad wakeboarding injury and went through a crazy terrible year trying to heal. I had a lot of pain in both years. At first I was told it was a partial ACL tear after an MRI but later was…
  • I was on prednisone and gained weight (fat and fluid retention) within the first 5 days. It was so annoying! Why does there have to be side effects like that? Ugh. Have you talked to your doctor about weaning off of the meds? Or at least for solutions to help boost your weight loss?
  • Same thing for me but with knee and hamstring injuries. It took me over a year to be almost back to normal with my knees but then more recently, my hamstrings are giving me trouble due to really bad previous strains. Injured muscles never heal properly or the same way, at least in my opinion. Also, on top of that, I had…
  • VERY naughty. I ate everything in sight and was constantly snacking the entire day on top of the two very large Christmas meals I had. I have no idea how many calories I ate over my usual, but I'm pretty sure it was a LOT. I probably won't weigh myself for at least a week, but at least I'm back on track with logging today!…
  • I don't drink regular milk. I grew up on rice milk but recently switched to almond milk and coconut milk. They're so delicious, and I think they're also better for you.
  • I wouldn't. I've dealt with many injuries especially with my hamstrings. Even right now, they're bothering me. Whenever they're hurting me, I follow what my physical therapist and massage therapist told me. They told me to never use heat then because it can increase the inflammation. Ice would be better. Just my advice and…
  • I sent you a message, but I'll respond here too so others can see. I'd like others to add me as friends as well. My name is Bri. I'm a 20 year old college student at 5'1" and 127 lbs. I'm looking to lose my excess fat and gain muscle tone and definition. I want to be fit and healthy. I'm not too focused on the numbers on…
  • I love this. ^^
  • I feel the same way! I can support you and would love some support too! :)
  • I also tried using this before and eventually quite for various reasons. I'm trying to stick with it this time. Maybe I need more motivating friends!
