Hair Loss? Help!
I've been exercising daily each morning at 5am since January 1st. I usually exercise 5 out of 7 days a week on average. I do the 21 day fix program from Beachbody. It's about 30 minutes a day when I do it. Then about 3 of those days, I do the 10 minute ab program that is part of 21 day fix. I eat very healthy. I probably…

Are the Kayla Itsines exercises effective?
Who has done this program that could tell me about it? Did it tone you up? Were the exercises horrifically difficult? Also, how long are the daily workouts and how many days a week? I have 30 minutes a day to exercise. That is about the max I can carve out of my free time and still give other things the attention they…

Worried about weight gain from medication
I am worried, and hope that some of you might have been there done that and can give me some advice and/or encouragement. I basically have been at 135lb for YEARS.

Tell me how you did it, early morning exercisers!!!
I've fallen off the exercise wagon. My hubs and I had been exercising in the evenings after the kids go to bed, so we'd usually start about 8:30. I only exercise for 30 minutes, it's all the time I have to work with, so at least we were not getting done incredibly late. However, things got busy, kids got in activities, and…

Starving on day 1 of 21 day fix
I had a bad start on day 1 of 21 day fix yesterday! At the end of the workday, I was completely starving! I had a hard boiled egg late in the afternoon to try and help, but it didn't. When I got home, I had a banana and just a few peanuts. All of this was still within my daily allowed portions. But then...my mom watched…

Fixate cookbook - worth it, or not?
Hi everyone. I'm starting a round of 21 day fix. I've been through a few rounds in the past, and one thing is that I feel like I just make the same food for 3 weeks in a row.

My medicine has caused weight gain - how to deal
Mid to late last year I was put on medicine that has caused me to gain 10 pounds. Prior to that, I'd maintained a steady weight for literally years. Even after having 2 kids, my weight went back down to my normal. I feel like a stuffed sausage in all my clothes. They still fit, but they make me uncomfortable living in my…

Feel like its a craptastic day
I'm just overall bummed today. I am just down on myself. I wonder how long it will take to look fit. I wonder if I'm doing the right thing being a working mom. I wonder if I am being a good enough parent to my 2 kids. I wonder if I am in the right job. Blah, blah, blah.

Muscle soreness with 21 day fix
Hi everyone. My husband and I started the 21 day fix on Monday. Prior to this, neither one of us have been exercising. Especially me, as I have a desk job and sit all the time. Things are going well so far. A few weeks prior to starting this, I had given up soda so that helped ease into it. I actually feel like I'm eating…

How do you motivate yourself for early AM workouts?
I never seem in the mood to exercise at night, but struggle to wake up at 5am to get it done for 30 min before work. Any ideas to get myself out of that bed an moving? I just feel like maybe I need to do it in the morning - the whole "do it in the morning or it won't get done" mentality.

Extremely tired after workout - is this adrenal fatigue?
This is how my life goes...I eat pretty well. I work full time and have two small children. I feel stressed quite a bit about things. Typically, I feel like I'm getting a cold quite frequently - sometimes it turns into one, sometimes it goes away (we are talking like 2x a month). I most certainly do not exercise regularly.…
