Injuries
Being a "fitness freak" which i'm pretty sure a lot of you are i've gone and injured myself. Not to sure how it's come about but I have sharp sharp pains in my ankle (inner side of right leg) and a painful calf (same leg).

Herbalife
Has any one ever done the herbalife diet? I've only been doing it for 5 days and have been doing it exactly as you are supposed to. I got to the gym 5/6 times a week and my job involves a lot of walking (up to 7 hours of walking at a time) but i'm just living off the herbalife diet. I thought the lbs would come off so…

Changes you have made
Since January 2012 I have drunk nothing but water or green tea. (Apart from the exception of protein shakes/shakes then i have them with milk) but other than that its just water or green tea, ... I don't know what made me do this but now I don't even think about needing anything apart from them. the thought of something…
