First I lost weight, then I gained fat and got flabby. I also felt weaker (hiking uphill without lifting was much more difficult). All this over 2-3 months. I immediately noticed a positive difference as soon as I started lifting again.

Be careful playing around with electrolytes without consulting a physician. Potassium and sodium must be in balance in order for our muscles to function properly, and our heart (cardiovascular system) can take a hit if those two are not at adequate levels. Also, your genetic make up and/or other medications could be a…

when we're sick as when we are healthy, food is like medicine because it keeps us alive.

i gain up to 6 pounds on my period and sometimes if i eat too salty foods, i'll retain water so i go exercise and sweat it off. i do have a heart transplant though and take so many medications that who knows why i retain water, but if you notice going up more than 5lbs overnight and you have trouble breathing or are tired,…
