Keto for weight loss
This is my 4th time starting the weight loss journey. I'm currently the largest I've ever been with the exception of pregnancy. I need to lose at least 30lbs, ideally 50lbs. I want to do it in a healthy way that sets me up for long term success. That is why I have chosen to do the ketogenic diet along with exercise 3 times…

Need Other Mommy Motivators
29 year old first time mommy here! I just had a baby this past May. I gained 66lbs throughout the pregnancy. I am down 51lbs so far and would love some other ladies in the same boat as me to friend me so that we can encourage each other!

Double Under Mishaps for Women
So... has anyone else ever had this problem? We were practicing double unders today at the gym. That is when you are jump roping and the rope loops around you twice for each one jump.

Holiday Celebrations
Tomorrow is December 1st! If you haven't been in full Christmas swing since dessert was served at the Thanksgiving table, then you're probably picking up momentum now. My husband and I celebrate the season every year by attending a Trans-Siberian Orchestra concert. Light show, Christmas story, Rock-n-Roll renditions of…

Xfitters!
I am looking for support from others out there who participate in crossfit classes. I currently go 4 times a week. The lower body strength training is going well for me. I squat pretty heavy weight. But after 4 months, I still am using bands to do pull ups. And my endurance is greatly lacking. I can make it through about 1…

Women getting healthy before getting pregnant?
My husband and I have made the decision to try to start a family. Not pregnant yet, but it could certainly happen any month now. I definitely want to get my health in check before a baby gets here. I know being healthier will make for an easier pregnancy, not to mention keeping up with the needs of a baby/toddler/child.…
