What is Premenopause/menopause like??
Hey ladies I have been experiencing several symptoms that I should not be having at my age, but early menopause runs early in my family (I'm almost 19, with no kids) like ages 26-30. I was wondering, for those of you who have experienced this change (early or not), what it was like and what symptoms you had? My symptoms…

Comfortable bike seat reccommendation
I'm replacing my (TERRIBLE) mountain bike seat with a comfortable seat because I ride for an hour or more at a time and am in pain for days after being on that awful seat. I don't have the balance/coordination to stand up for the ride. I am considering ordering a "Schwinn" pillow-top cruiser bike seat offline and try that.…

Good HRM or Activity tracker?
Hi! I currently have a Polar FT4 and I LOVE it...but it's a few years old now and the chest strap is about to lie down on me.

You don't get it by sitting on your butt.
Just a little friendly motivation, here! Too often, we say things such as "I'm going to start eating healthy" "I'm going to lose weight" "I'm going to start working out" etc. Without actually following through with them.
