Favorite yoga videos?
Hi, everyone :) I love yoga, but unfortunately, I am unable to take a class for the next few months. I still want to keep doing it, though, because it makes me feel fantastic. What are your favorite yoga videos/YouTube channels? Preferably ones that are a little longer and/or intermediate or above. Thanks!!

This isn't really "fun", but I am angry
Okay, not gonna lie, I'm posting this because I want validation for my anger. So, I have this friend who has had issues with depression and suicidal thoughts for years now. This week has been particularly bad for her. I have been trying to be here for her as much as possible, and she has said that it helps, at least a…

So I'm an RA... (Advice?)
Like the title says, I'm an RA this year. I'm doing a bulletin board for my floor about nutrition and eating healthy in university. What is some advice on the topic that you would pass along to incoming freshmen? Thanks! :) Oh, also, for those who are interested, the boards have a '50s theme, so the title will be "Eating…

So Marilyn Monroe, huh?
I've been hearing a lot lately about how she's a role model for plus sized girls because she allegedly was a size 14. The info I found would suggest otherwise... (next to a picture of me for reference) I'm putting this here because Marilyn was actually a fairly small woman, and she really shouldn't be treated as some…

Not new, but CONFUSED.
So I am very confused as of late. I started on the MFP-suggested 1200 back in June or so. I bumped that up to 1600 around January or February after finding out my BMR was 1429. I was losing really well on both of these... I went from 168 lbs to 130 between those two times, and down to 125 between February and March.…

Thinking about getting a food scale...
So I have been thinking about getting a food scale for awhile, and I finally decided to start doing research so I can get one for the next school year. Now, I would like it to be small and fairly unnoticeable, but still pretty accurate. I found the one below on Amazon, any thoughts? Thanks!…

Warm Weather Clothing NSV
So now that the weather is starting to get warmer, I've begun busting out the spring/summer clothing again. I hadn't really been seeing much change and was starting to get discouraged, but then I saw myself in some clothes that I haven't worn since September or so -- About 20-25 lbs ago! I look so TEENY :)

Squatting and Dancers
So I am a dancer. I've been trying to get into cross-training to stay in shape, even when I'm "off-season" (so to say). I've started trying squats, but they are terribly awkward for my body. After a few, I end up just doing grande plies in second position (here's the best video I could find as an example…

WIP pics :)
So I still have a ways to go, but I felt like taking progress pics today :) The measurements may not be 100% accurate on today's pic, but it's close Before: A month or so ago (not sure what day, what weight, what measurements, whatever, but they look good :P ) And finally... Today! :D Turned into Like I said, I still have…

Fats and protein?
So I've recently begun tracking my macros, and in doing so, I have discovered that I go crazy on carbs. A little background on me: I have been a lacto-ovo-pesco-vegetarian (eating eggs, dairy, and seafood) for around 9 or 10 years now, and I'm trying to cut down on body fat. So basically, I was wondering if there are any…

Fitbit Zip?
I'm thinking about getting a HRM as a broke college student, and, out of the ones that MFP suggested, the Fitbit Zip is the cheapest and it does what I would want it to do. Does anyone here have any good reasons why I should or should not get this specific one? I also looked on Amazon and found some really cheap ones, but…

Tummy noises?
So I'm not sure if this is in the right board, but... I need some advice about my stomach. I could be not hungry, not bursting at the seams, not, erm... Flatulent... But my stomach still makes these ridiculous noises. I'm not sure why it could be happening, but it's starting to get really embarrassing when I'm in class,…
