I've been told it could be a hernia(?) behind my belly button that was never checked out when I was a child. Most of my bloating came from lactose intolerance, which I've remedied with Lactaid and a mostly vegan diet, and the other factor for bloating may or may not come from my constant eating of legumes and vegetables? I…

Tiramisu and bowl upon bowl of mashed potatoes with onion gravy. Mmm, or poutine with onion gravy!!!!

That's a really good start. I accepted your friend request! And yeah I love League :3

I added you!

I don't. I just eat a little bit, but I eat slowly and savor it. Want chips and dip? Spoon out 2 tablespoons on a small tea plate, a serving of chips which are like usually 13 chips, then put it all away and enjoy! Afterwards drink a big glass of water and brush your teeth. No reason to deprive yourself. Dieting is not a…

I have lactose intolerance. XD So if I get dairy it kills my tummy. I get a bowl with brown rice, sofritas, black beans, tomatillo salsa, and lettuce. I dump the green tabasco on too. I can't finish the whole bowl in one setting though, so it ends up making two meals. <3

Here this is what it kinda looks like. There's lots of blank spaces because I've been editing it this morning which is why I've been kinda snippy because I jumped the gun without finishing my coffee: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YM4QYQ3F5bl19AHqW1R2JlKrA9PrgOdUyr6YfqueSHU/edit?usp=sharing

I actually had literally JUST added that to one of my options in my routine list. XD I say options because I have the set of what workout goes where and a mixed list of which workouts work for that, if that makes sense? It's like a list of things I know I can do at home from the list on Nerd Fitness.

"Jer1993" I'd guess she was 21. :3

It's nothing super hardcore though, like standing on your tiptoes on one leg with the other in the air behind you and your body and arms at some weird angle and all that stuff. It's literally laying on the ground stretching most of the time. It's super duper beginner hatha.

Oh, yeah sorry. That's why I'm doing beginner level hatha specifically. I can't reach the full extensions all of the time, but it's really low impact and mostly laying on the floor stretching in different poses. It's a good warm up and cool down.

Bicep curls, tricep extensions, and I can't remember what the name was but it's the one where you bend over straight out, hold your arms in at your armpits, then lift backwards until you're straight with your back. I got to 6 towards the beginning with the extensions, but after I had to struggle to hit 5. I seriously have…

I won a $15 gift card at a birthday party but I forgot my wallet in Canada. :c I just wanted a bagel and a water cup while I was trying to spend my last $5 on this week's dinners. Which, btw, turned out great! I got an avocado, whole wheat tortillas on sale, and a can of vegetarian refried black beans.

It is for me. I think I lost a lot of muscle mass when I lost weight. I'd like to take a weight off but it gets imbalanced. Not everyone has the same fitness level as you. I seriously can't do 8 reps, but I'm going to try and make myself do it tomorrow.

Already did that and built routines and circuits around them. Cause there's so much more I can add to push ups. I just thought a push up challenge activity would be fun.

Because stretching and meditation are worthless right? -_-

...you're suggesting yoga? When I just told you I do hatha every day? Wut? Wut? I don't get it. Now you're parroting me?

Tacked on a beginner body weight circuit that'll run through every other day and routine that covers quads, butt and hamstrings, push, pull, and core. That'll sort of take place of the 100 pushups challenge, except it's more like the challenge will go into the routine. I just wish I could for once post something on this…

I love this site. I get told by countless people to go to Youtube and use their free videos, I ask for advice in balancing and I get told I can't. lol. I have 2 dimes in my wallet right now. Don't think that's enough for a doctor. The "free clinic" near me wants $500 just to see me. And my phone's too old to download apps.…

Pros tell you to go to the gym. It's not free here. I checked. I can't do sports or dancing because of a work injury that never healed. Guess I should mention I'm at home only.

I think this is what he was trying to get at. I want to recomp, but I don't need to lose weight per say. I have a lot of issues, I will admit. C-PTSD, undiagnosed hypoglycemia (I had a type 1 diabetic ex and a type 2 diabetic mother so I had plentiful access to their pricks for years. I had what they normally describe as a…

I got really frustrated on Monday because I fainted on the train due to low blood sugar, and to get it up I drank some juice and ate a banana, and to keep it level from there I had pepitas. We were on our way out for dinner though, and once I felt better I was starving but scared to eat anything because the juice, banana,…

I dunno. Going to try to call a clinic tomorrow because I used to be 10x more sedentary and I thought my blood sugar problems had gone away. Apparently as soon as I become active again my blood sugar starts to drop again. My average blood sugar is between 75 and 80, but as soon as I drop below 70 I start getting sick. I…

The blood sugar and low calorie counts are what's making me nervous. Sure, I don't need to lose 20lbs like I originally wanted to, I understand that, but when I start working out I tend to get hungry and I'm deathly afraid of eating too much.

The "what ifs" are what's *kitten* me up because I'm trying to maintain my micros as best I can, cut as much candy and junk food out of my diet, and get moving but have the fuel to do so. This past week my blood sugar kept dropping and I actually fainted on the train one day because the constant walking around + heat was…

This is where my boyfriend was trying to go with the discussion, not that I would ever get to super high amounts of food. I'm not trying to stuff myself, but I do freak the fck out when I'm over by 100 cals or more.

This specific calculator says I have a BMR of 1403 My TDEE is 1684 I should eat 1347 calories a day.

If I had one I would have won the argument with him. lol

No way in hell. All the rice I was eating? I started logging and the amount I ate went from big plate to tiny bowl.

Lol I hope he's your boss someday.
