For Women Only, Implanon and Exercise
Hello, ladies, and for any men reading, don't say I didn't warn you. I am on implanon and have been for about a year and a half. For that entire time I think I have had maybe 4 periods. However, I am having one right now and was wondering if exercise can have an influence on it. I have been exercising for approximately 1…

Looking for active supportive friends!!!
Hello, I am looking for a few friends that are regularly active and supportive. I am looking to message through mfp and possibly text or e-mail. I have been a member of mfp for a little over a year and am losing steam. And I realized it is because I have only one other friend that logs every day. I am 28 (soon to be 29)…

I feel them the most during the butt…

Trouble in Ab-land
Okay, so here goes. I am 240 pounds, 5'8" tall, and an "apple" being that I carry most of my weight around my midsection. I need advice on ab workouts/exercises. I have trouble with all exercises designed for that area. Aside from little crunches that I can do, everything else is impossible. I have had a back injury in the…

overcoming muscle soreness
So this past Friday I did the entire (well as much as possible) 40 minute workout of Jillian's "No More Trouble Zones". Then yesterday I hurt so bad I couldn't move. My upper body was a little tender but my lower body was so sore I could hardly go up and down stairs. Now here's my question. Was that too much? She says to…
