Outer Leg Hurts
Whenever I move quickly (walking or running) the outer part of my leg, right above my ankle to about halfway to my knee kills. It starts to hurt within 2 minutes of quickly moving. It has done this since I can remember. Even before I was obese. If I move quickly, it hurts. It continues to hurt and hurt and hurt worse until…

"The Surgery"
I have a family member who had "the surgery" as he calls it and lost loads of weight. Kudos to him. At first I was really excited for him and inspired and now I am just down right annoyed. I'm not dissing anyone who has had or is having or is considering having "the surgery" or some form of weight loss alteration of your…

P90x and Obese

Girl Topic! Did you lose your "girls" first?
This is the part I HATE about losing weight. The first place I lose it, is in my chest. I was not blessed in this area to begin with and it drives me crazy that I lose fat there first so my stomach sticks out even further from there until the fat in my stomach catches up. I carry almost all of my weight in my midsection.…

Falling off the wagon, time and again.
SO frustrating! Anyone else feel like they aren't "yo-yo" dieting as much as they just keep falling flat on their face? I have been trying to get "healthy" since I was in 3rd grade. Yup... for the last 21 years I have been battling my weight. People say if you fall off the wagon you just have to get up and keep…

Avacado's are throwing off my fat count!
I love Avacado's. Either in the morning for breakfast or as a snack. I think Avacado's in moderation are GREAT for you. But then my whole fat count is off. I am already -43. Does this mean Avacado's are not as good as I thought. I thought they were good fats. Should I disregard my fat count?
