World's fastest workout?
I've seen it floating around places such as pintrest, but I want someone's take on it. Is there any way that it can honestly boost your metabolism for up to 36 hours and all that stuff it claims? Its just 8 twenty second rounds of burpees, mountain climbers, high knees, and jumping jacks...

Skeletoes
Some people swear by them and others despise them... What I'm wondering is, are they good running shoes? I have a pair and a pair of sneakers, but I want opinions before I try the Skeletoes out...

Exercise Before Breakfast = No hunger?
So, I've discovered something that I feel is just... not right. If I get up in the morning and workout before doing pretty much anything else, I seem to have literally no appetite for the rest of the day. I just sit around knowing I should eat but just not feeling like I was hungry. I've finally managed to get a somewhat…

Gyms are Intimidating
So, I have a membership to an awesome fitness center since I'm a student. However, I have this extreme... fear (?) of gyms. I always get extremely uncomfortable and just do not want to be there. I feel like people are staring at me and mentally making snide comments. I have a very paranoid personality. I've only ever felt…

No more Bread!
So, I've recently decided to cut bread out of my diet. I know several people that have and they seem much healthier since then. But I'm just curious, what are the advantages/disadvantages of a non-bread diet?

Food Monster and TOM
So, I always seem to be what I call a Food Monster the week before TOM visits. Like, even if I just ate, I'm still hungry. Is there any way to deal with this? It makes it very difficult to try to lose weight if I'm just gonna eat myself silly.

Dorm Friendly Work-outs
So, I'm a college student and I've been looking around for some dorm friendly workouts. I have a concrete floor with very little carpet on it. Mainly, on the days where I don't feel like heading to the gym, I want to be able to still work out. I don't have the money to buy stuff (starving college student xD) so please give…

Convert for College -- Open Group!
So, I know there has to be lots more college students on this site. Everyone here has good tips, but sometimes it just helps to hear certain things from people who are somewhat in the same environment as you. I can honestly say learning what to avoid in the cafe is one of the hardest things I'm still trying to learn.…

Any good Fajita recipes?
I promised my boyfriend I'd make him some of my homemade fajitas. Well, I never measure anything and kinda just cook. I was hoping for maybe a good healthy recipe to use, just to keep him at bay till I can actually make mine. Please note: I'm in college, so cheap is better with me. :) Please post calories if you can.

Unsure about what to call this
So I walk to and from all my classes. Its like a mile probably, but I'm unsure what to classify it as when I put it in the exercise thing. I wear a backpack that on average weighs between five and seven pounds. Not sure if that makes too much of a difference. Thanks!

New this time around
So I was on MFP earlier this year, in hopes to lose weight before college. However, due to a lot of things out of my control, I couldn't stick to it. Anyways, this time around, I'm in school. I never realized just how hard it is to eat right, especially at a University with Chick-fli-a, Papa Johns, Convenience Store, Cafe,…
