Good clip, thanks for sharing. I'm definetly agreeing with this and will try some of the alternatives instead. Except: What if you're too weak sauce to do push ups?

I'm just lifting freeweights for the most part. You know, like a boss. Well, a slightly sick and weak boss. But still pretty boss. I'm not doing a program, but I probably should be. I just go in, decide what muscles I'm working and go from there.

Not stupid, actually a good question. It is about calorie deficit, so if youre eatin 1800 cals of ice cream and burgers but are supposed to be on a 2200 cal diet, you will lose weight. Will you feel good? Probably not. I don't know many people who feel well on a diet like that and those that think they do well...if you've…

Depending on the brand of stevia it's actually very beneficial. I prefer getting mine from the drugstore because it's pure stevia and nothing else, but when I'm broke I'll go for stevia in the raw, even though it has maltodextrin in it. Stevia also makes you crave sugar LESS. So "artificial sweeteners" : P If you can…

Just from what I saw it looks like you're starting your day off with way too few a calories. You're pretty much just slowing you're matabolism that way, plus you have a lot of zero calorie liquids instead of food. Although the tea is awesome, your body can't live off tea alone all morning and afternoon until dinner. My mom…

In a perfect world : ) Women don't want the perfect man, we just want to eat without getting fat <3

I don't have a home scale. My gym has the traditional weighted non-electric scale and a digital scale. The drs office's around here all have the same electric scale my gym does. So should I be going with the lower weight then? Guarenteed there was no food in my and I definetly wasn't properly hydrated.

I love doing meals in shake form like that. Sometimes it feels just more decidant. Especially with cocoa powder added : ) I can never get the oatmeal ground up enough for my liking. Really don't like textured shakes. Thanks for sharing!

Since my husband died I've had really bad anxiety problems, I find the more I get my life together the less it's present. I use to be a bad emotional eater too, I still have my moments, but I had to go through this phase where I wouldn't eat when I was feeling over-emotional. It's not the best health wise, especially if…

Update: I saw a care clinic doc, they pretty much said nothing. Oh you just probably over did it. Don't workout for the next few days, drink lots of fluids, eat bland food. You probably just got a virus with it too. The cardiac thing. . . .I have an asymptomatic heart murmur. . . ..that worries me too. Definetly going to…

ooooo jello : p I fotgot I had that in the house. Natures: I want something to drink but i want to chew something at the same time.

I'm hoping to find something easy on my stomach. I know the BRAT idea helps, but most of that actually seems to upset my stomach more. I'm not feeling better yet, I'm planning on going to the doctors today or tomorrow. Thank you for hoping though! : )

It's definetly not cold, other than feeling like my back is bruised and my stomachs dead I feel okay from there today. As for an allergy, that's not unreasonable, but I can't possibly think of anything I ate in the last 48ish hours that would do that.

I've been doing this for close to 11 weeks now. I started Jan 8th. I didn't start getting really intense with it until about week 3 or 4 though. I'm thinking I might be doing too much, but I really don't know what's too little either. I was planning on writing myself up a fitness plan a little kinder too me but now I'm…

I"m trying to get in with a doctor but it's posing difficult. I might go to one of the care clinics instead. This is the first time this has happened, that's why I'm so confused.

Its gotta be iron. I had the same issue a few years ago. Now i make sure to take a supplement before or after working out, without any diary.

Protine bars tend to have a lot of extra fillers that a protine shake wont. However I'm slightly addcited to the Go2Go protine bars that are made here in utah. Idk i there anywhere else but those are wicked tasty.

Thank you! A lot of you actually said Happy Birthday on my birthday : D I had a few glasses of wine...ended up making a comment about not mounting things recently to the waiter when they made me get on the birthday saddle. I guess that's what happens when wine talks : p

I will thank you. So far no doctor has found anything wrong. I really think a lot of it is my weight and my joints just finally say f*** you fat lady, to me. It was better today, but I'm still feeling worn out.

I've been working out for about 10 weeks now. And the odd part is I only ever have this issue if I work my back hard. I've worked my back before more moderately and don't get that issue but end up seeing very little results. So far my back and chest have been the only two areas that haven't been able to increase weights…

6 foot 280 MFP has me at 2520 calories or less. I'm hitting about 2100 2-3xs a week, 30 - 45 mins of cardio (usually walking at 2 incline and 2.8 speed with occasional random sprints for 30sec-1min) then 45-60 mins of weight training, sets of muscles if I go 3xs a week, full bodyish if I go twice. (it's full body-ish,…

I just tend to remember that people think thye can say more on the internet, I think because they feel like theyre talking to a post not a person. I think it would be different if we were all in a face-to-face group. A lot of them I just see as Internet Trolls, and try to view their comments as primarily entertaining…

Another think I forgot to mention, this was actually my #2: I'm currently doing research on Anorexia for a college assignment. Just from interviews, I can positivly tell you what this.......guy, is doing is setting your mind up to be anorexic. All it takes and can start out as is you thinking you're fighting your boyfriend…

Although you're advice would be helpful if this were a new realationship, it's pointless with this one. She's been seeing him for years, if he hasn't noticed his own actions and hurtful remarks and changed himself, he never will.

I didn't even finish reading that, I got to the part where you'll eat everything just so he won't and just couldn't read anymore. A few things: 1. and this is in caps because it's very important to you're health, mind and life: THIS IS AN ABUSIVE RELATIONSHIP YOU ARE IN, AND YOU NEED TO GET OUT. This man is using you,…

As wierd as it sounds, my communion dress from when I was 8. . . . I just put it on a maniquin I own that's a size 10 (womens) (or 8ish, in the fashion world) and it's about an inch too big all around, but other than that fits the maniquin perfectly. I was a size 8-10 when I was...welll, 8-10. I'd be a ecstatic crying heap…

Depending on where I go that might be a good idea. I'm debating between my love of Thai food (which I can mimick at home, but not nearly as well) and a steak and potatoe kinda place.
