Prove to me that Carb Nite isn't s***.
When I think of "Carb Nite", I think of a completely unsustainable, mentally and physically unhealthy fad diet! Seriously, you're going to cut your carbs down to >30g six days/week and then binge the hell out of whatever completely unhealthy processed/high carb foods you can get your paws on once a week?! You look forward…

Anxious Often
Anyone else feel anxious pretty often? I have never been an anxious person in the past, but lately I find myself getting anxious and stressed about nothing, really. I'm wondering if it has to do with the amount of thyroid I'm taking, but I'm scared to lower the dose... I don't want to be lethargic either!

Polar HRM Malfunctioning
I have a Polar FT4 that I've used for about two years. Just recently, it stopped working and I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem?? I got a new battery a few months ago, and wash the strap as well. I hope I don't need to replace it altogether :/

Eat Squeaky Clean = Insomnia
I am on Day 11 of a super clean diet, and almost everything is going perfectly. My bloating is gone, my mood has improved, and I am less fatigued. The only problem is, I can't sleep (I stop drinking caffeine at 8am)! I have a ton of energy... Does anyone else have this problem?

How do YOU survive the weekend?
It seems as though eating/exercising is on point for me during the week, but when the weekend rolls around, I seem to fall off the wagon. What I mean by that is I'll either eat WAY too much, or I'll eat things I know I'm intolerant to (i.e. ICE CREAM). Then I pay for it later. What are your tips and tricks to staying on…

Swimming and CHARLIESSS.
I have been a swimmer for almost 15 years. I used to swim varsity every day in high school, and then took a break for college, and now I am trying to get back into it. HOWEVER, I get a charlie horse in my calf almost every time I get in the pool now. This never happened previously. Do any of you guys have this same…

"Your boobs look smaller"
Uh....GREAT! The first thing the boyfriend notices about my weight loss is the one place I DON'T want to lose weight. I guess it's better than nothing, right?! ;-) Where have people noticed your weight loss first? Ps: Open for new friends, too! I sign on everyday and love to exercise and record my workouts!

Who is your cell phone provider?!
This is totally not fitness/food related, BUT, I don't know where else to post it. Plus, you guys are helpful, soooo... I'm thinking of switching from Verizon to T-Mobile for two reasons: 1. I want to get the iPhone5, but I am WAY too stubborn to lose my unlimited data plan (how can they *kitten* over a 10-year loyal…

When do YOU get hungry?
I've found that my appetite is pretty much on a set schedule during the week, and I wanted to know if anyone else was the same. 1. When I wake up, not much of an appetite (UNLESS I ate a lot the night before, then I'm usually starving): 6am. 2. Usually eat breakfast 2 hours after waking up: 8am. 3. STARVING 3 hours after…

Running as antidepressant
Dear fellow runners: Why do you run? I know the obvious reason, to either lose weight, or stay in shape. But for me, I run 50% to stay in shape, and 50% to stay sane! It's my free antidepressant. I'm addicted to endorphins ;-) Cheers, Katie

Any clean eaters/paleo people?
I've had MFP for quite some time, but just recently started using it consistently in the past week or so. As with all social media, I'm now addicted! But I feel like it's a "healthy" addiction. Would love to connect with like-minded people :)
