Are my goals okay?
I just got back from college which means I can finally get back to trying to lose weight. Last spring I started at 162 and got down to 140 by the end of last summer.

Bicep Injury?
Hi all, So I rock climb 3-5 times a week and yesterday while I was at the climbing gym my arm started to bug me a bit. It doesn't feel like DOMS at all. It just feels weird and weak, not exactly painful, just kind of sore, and only when I am resting. It was my fourth day in a row climbing so it probably has something to do…

Any tips for losing the last 10 pounds?
I am a college student who lost 22 pounds between March and June this past year. Over the summer I was really trying to get the last 10 pounds I would like to lose off but really struggled with it.

College Students Answer Please
Hey Everyone, So I've been maintaining (by not logging/measuring everything) the past two months while at school, but I'm finding myself slipping into bad habits like fast food not going to the gym, etc. I still want to lose some weight but it is very difficult because my school provides very limited nutrition information…

Food Scale at College: Is it really that weird?
I am thinking about getting a smaller food scale so I can carry it around with me when I go eat at the dining halls on campus. Is this completely weird? It's very difficult to get accurate nutrition info, if any at all, from my campus and I know this will help me log more accurately, at least for my fruits/veggies and…

Question about Kale?
So I want to try eating more kale because there is so much hype about it but I find it to be really bitter unless cooked. I remember hearing that if you massage it, it makes it taste better. Is there any truth to this?

Thoughts on my plan?
I seem to have hit a plateau. I haven't lost anything over a month even though I have been very accurate with my logging and exercising 3-4 times a week. I've decide to use another website to calculate my BMR, then use that to calculate how many calories I need to maintain and calculate my deficit based off of this number…
