What to do with old clothes?
Okay, so since I've lost quite a bit of weight, well, not even pounds that many pounds, but enough inches to lose many jean sizes. I kinda don't want to just give away or throw my old clothes away. I've been feeling very artsy lately and wanna turn my old jeans into new things. I said shorts but I wouldn't be able to fit…

How Much Protein Right After A Workout?
Just wondering. i read somewhere on here that you're supposed to eat alot of protein within an hour of your workout, but the most I ever eat is peanut butter crackers and they contain maybe 8-10 grams of protein in them. How important is it to eat right after working out anyways? Will it do me any setbacks or anything?…

Feeling faint when I stand for too long?
Okay, this is completely different than what I used to complain about what with my having dizzy spells and all that. I've been eating a pretty good range of my calories, usually always getting past 1,100 cals and sometimes going over my limit of 1600. My choice of foods is on the healthier side for the most part though I…

I'm Sorry Mission Slim Possible...
I'm feeling like I'm failing you guys tremendously. I swear I hated to put my weight in today even though it only went up .6 lbs, I gained about 4 lbs LAST week. I promise I've been trying my hardest to lose this weight, but the first week weigh in was so high because I was finally reaching my minimum of 1200 cals a day so…

Why Are My Feet BURNING?!
This is one of the most annoying problems I've encountered since I've been doing running/jogging as my cardio. Granted, I don't actually run outside but rather I have a long strip in my room (kind of takes the shape of an 'L') that I run back and forth in. I work up a very good sweat, but my problem is that the more I run…

New Activities for the Shy One?
Hi all. The thing is, doing all of these "calisthenics" workouts are getting boring as they are typically "easier". I get through close to 30 minutes about breathless, but on the flip side, I feel I'm not doing enough to get the "sore" feeling the next day which is telling me I'm not pushing myself enough. So I figured I…

Needing Some Supportive Fitness Pals?
People who actually log on and have things going in motion for them? I need some more support! I am quite the supportive friend but I would really appreciate having friends that would support me with some feedback as well. It feels kinda weird talking to myself sometimes.......... =/

I think I just came out of my denial...
After I LOST 23 pounds of it. I was on the computer last night when I started going through some of my pics because I had been so inspired by that Everyone's Before and After progress pics threads that I wanted to go back and see some of my before pics. I was at a whopping 214 lbs when I started losing weight, I think that…
