Lost 75 pounds now pregnant
I'm just feeling frustrated and defeated. I knew this was going to happen but it's hitting way harder then I thought. I was down 75 pounds and in the best shape of my life at 185 pounds and continuing to lose. Then I got pregnant, on purpose, but now I've already gained 15 pounds in the first trimester. Dr says I can only…

Grunting at the gym
True story, this morning there was this fairly attractive guy on a machine in front of me who was lifting weights and grunting like an animal. Well more like sex grunts really, I will admit it was kind of hot but awkward. Has anyone else experienced this or do it?

Measuring success by inspiration
I was having a pity party today because the scale was not in my favor this morning. I kept trying to figure out a way to cheer myself up without using food to do so.

How do you know if you're losing muscle?
I've lost 35lbs in the last 4 months and met with a trainer, briefly at the gym as he was selling his services, he did my current bmi and I was at 40% but 35lbs heavier I was at 32%. I was shocked, then I asked myself how do you know if you're losing muscle? I do strength train and cardio 5 days a week.

Others eat like crap and lose weight, WTF?!
I'm am really frustrated right now. I always look at friends food diaries and notice a lot of them eat processed food, fast food, etc and are still dropping weight like crazy. I eat fairly clean most of the time and I'm struggling to get past my second plateau. I excercise/strength train 4-5 days a week and normally only…

Does tracking calories etc ever end?

Fat people shouldn't run? say what?!
Every Saturday I go for a walk/jog/run with my daughter for anywhere from 45 minutes-2 hours (depending on the weather). I was in my jogging part of my routine wearing ankle weights and this guy comes up from behind me on a bike and says, "who told you to run?" My first thought was he's going to kill me. He informed me he…
