BMI = bull
So, I went to a dietician, talked to her about my goal weight. I am 5'8", and my goal weight was 130 pounds. She said I absolutely should not reach that, it would be very unhealthy. But the BMI scale says I could get down to 120 pounds and still be healthy. When I talked to the dietician about it, she said nope, no way,…

Flexibility NSV
I have not been able to touch my toes at any point in my life. (You know, standing up, not bending your knees, and just being able to fold over and reach your feet, like gym teachers want you to do.) I couldn't even do it in elementary school, not 'cause of my weight, but just because I wasn't flexible, and never tried to…

Is it bad to eat too much fiber or protein?
I know why it's bad to go over on fat or carbs, but yesterday I was over on protein, and today I was over on fiber. I thought fiber helped the digestive system, so it was good to eat a lot of it, and protein helps you feel full, and develop muscle, and such? Should I try not to go over on those? EDIT: And I do really…

30 Day Shred, what should I do?
Okay, so I'm doing 30 Day Shred, and I get it on exercise TV on demand. Well, I've done level 1 for 1 days, as I'm supposed to, but On Demand has failed to "post" Level 2, and probably won't post it until the 20th. Should I keep doing level 1 for the remaining 5 days, or just take a 5 day break between the levels? Thanks...

Say something positive about yourself every day.

So take the time here to say something nice about yourself, such as "I wore something cute today," or "I made a good breakfast." Anything you're proud of. It's not just limited to girls, and try to…
