my family is ruining my christmas with food
Or, more accurately, without it. My grandparents go to sleep around 5pm, so they decided christmas dinner will be at 3:30 and no eating before that(or we're cheapening all the hard work cooking the meal) or after. We all flew to Portland this year to visit their favorite child, my uncle, so no car or means of getting food.…

fad workouts like fad diets?
They say if you lose weight very quickly following a diet that is extremely different from your usual lifestyle, you gain it back when you stop following it right? Wouldn't the same be true for insanity and p90x and all those? That if you don't keep them up you don't get to keep your results? Just curious.

time to stop working out?
My left foot has been hurting for about 3 months not very badly but the last month it has been worse and I find myself walking differently to avoid putting all my weight on it. The pain is like, where my big toe meets my foot? that muscle or joint that bends. When I am walking and my weight is on it it hurts a lot, and I…

pain from not sucking in stomach

In middle and high school I was heavily immersed in the world of choir competitions, where we did lots of diaphragm exercises and had to "suck in" a…

tea overdose?
Hi y'all, I used to drink tea daily as sort of a coffee substitute(i HATE the taste and smell of coffee but like being awake in the morning) and have stopped the last couple years(which come to think of it is when I started gaining) but still have loads of it lying around. It's natural loose leaves I brew myself(no bags…

addicted to workout clothes?
I don't get it. I wouldn't be caught dead in workout clothing anywhere but home or the gym, but since I started going I can't stop buying the stuff! Including a rainbow of sports bras I don't even let anyone see! lol, anyone else notice themselves doing this?

guilt free sweets?
Lets talk about sweets that are easy to prepare and not too bad for us, or things we wouldn't normally reach for to satisfy a mouth full of sweet tooths(sweet teeth?) I'll start: 1 large container of cottage cheese 1 box fat free sugar free jello mix(lime and orange are my favorites) Empty jello mix into cottage cheese and…

adding calories without adding unhealthy food?
I am a vegetarian as well as a poor college student. My problem is trying to cut out unhealthy foods(like pizza) while still meeting my calorie goal of 1200 a day. I don't get it. If I eat spinach salads and raw/steamed vegetables("healthy") I am way under but if I add in bready things or noodles my calories might stay…
