Delayed onset of sleep
I've struggled with delayed sleep onset since I was a child. There are rare occasions when I fall asleep within a few minutes but it is common for me to lay awake for any where from 30 minutes to several hours.

Sometimes I wish my appetite would disappear
I'm an ex-smoker/ex-weed smoker (recent quit, 12-18 months for the weed, 3-4 months for tobacco) and in the last 4-5 months I've increased from 62-63kg to 68kg.

Inner thigh chafing...?
Hi everyone! I'm experiencing inner thigh chafing at the moment. I usually wear jeans or long pants because my thighs touch whilst I'm standing and rub when I walk or run. It's warmed up significantly here (start of spring) and I'm finding it too hot to exercise in my long tights and I want to wear my skirts/dresses and…

Blogs and photos
Hello all! I hope someone can help - I've recently started my personal blog and would like to post some progress images. Trouble is, no matter what image codes I use, the end result is always a link to the image, not the image embedded in the post. I've tried the same images on photobucket, imgur and flickr but still…

What to do when you hit daily calorie limit?
I've been logging in to MFP for just under 105 days and I've been gaining/maintaining for that time. My goal is 65 kilos with mini goals at every 2 kilos from my current weight (I'm at 78-79 kilos). I'm 160cm tall and sedentary/lightly active. My daily goal is 1400 calories which I set in conjunction with my PT. My…
