Bloating advice, PLEASE! ):
Hi, I used to think I needed to lose a bit of tummy paunch, but I'm steadily starting to think more and more that my real problem is bloating and chronic constipation :S (sorry guys, there may be mention of stools and such so apologies in advance!!)

Thinking about re-adjusting goals
Hi all, Looking for some advice and seeing as I'll have to introduce myself to do so, this seems like the best board to post on. I know 'skinny-fat' has many definitions, but I'm fairly sure I fall into one - I'm 5"2, currently weighing around 99-100lbs. With clothes on, most people say I look skinny, and don't need to…

Getting a handle on my hunger :D
OK I'll keep this brief, I'm generally a grazer when it comes to eating. I used to get hungry basically on cue - I'd eat breakfast when I got up at 7-8am, be hungry at 10\11ish, sometimes hold on til lunch at 12 but usually gave in and had a small snack. Then lunch at 12-1ish, hungry again for a snack at 3, hungry again at…

Question about logging weightlifting
In the excersize diary, I can't work out how to log the toning excersizes I do on my arms every day - or to log them at all?! Every morning I do 2 sets of 20 reps for about 8 different arm-toning weightlifting excersizes to firm up my arms as I lose flab, but with only a very light makeshift weight (usually 400g tins of…
