Workout routine at the gym
Right now I go to the gym after work every day, and I usually warm up on the treadmill or bike for 5 minutes, then I move to the weight machines for either upper body or lower body, depending on the day.

Help! Starvation mode?
So this week I have been eating a little under 1200 calories a day, and now MFP has me worried because they always give me that message in red that I'm eating too few calories and I may not be getting enough nutrients AND I may be putting my body into starvation mode.

Chia seeds?
I'm sure this has been talked about here already, but I just bought a bag of chia seeds because my coworker said they're full of good things and help her feel full longer than normal. I put a tablespoon in my greek yogurt this morning, and although the texture took a bit to get used to, it was definitely bearable! It seems…
