What a little tweak in Macro's can do!
Ugh, for the last two weeks I have had to PRY myself out of bed only to land on the couch and veggitate for another hour or so. However, once I was finally up, I felt heavy and sluggish all day. I immediately thought this was food related, because every time I experiment with new eating habits, I get weird side effects.…

How to get the most accurate scale weight?
My scale defies the laws of physics! I will weigh before I eliminate in the morning, and then step back on after.... my weight goes up! Sometimes several ounces, sometimes a pound! it is fustrating as you would think it would go down? How do I know I have the most accurate weight? My scale is in the bathroom on linoleum if…

Help! I think I'm a spinster!
To make a long story short, I am 23 and have never been kissed. I have suffered from anxiety/depression/ self esteem issues my entire life. Basically, I have never felt like dating. I've either had the blues... or never had the self esteem to date. My healthier lifestyle has helped my mental health as much as my physical…

Paleo-ers... potato hack workz!
You can find the potato hack threads on MDA under "EAT MOAR TATERS" and Free The Animal by searching potato diet. On 12/12 I started the potato hack and weighed 206.8. 12/13 I weighed 203, and this morning I weighed 201.6. I am sure the 3lb drop was do to some major water weight after indulging in a giant hamburger and…

When Blisters Feel Good
For the last two days I have jogged 5 miles on my treadmill. Each blister is a testament of what I accomplished. 5 miles may not seem like a big deal for most people, but it is f#%&ing awesome to me! My ultimate goal is to train for a tuff mudder in October of next year. I am sure there will be plenty more blisters along…

Funny NSV
So, I work at a day care and yesterday some of my kiddos decided they were going to sit on my feet and not let me go anywhere. They almost pantsed me! That's never happened before! Pants are getting to the point where I can probably take them off without unbuttoning them! Time to find a belt I guess! Hehehe

High Fat Low Carb
So this is literally my second day of doing this, but yesterday I lost .8lbs by only adding coconut oil to me diet. So, I am taking a very healthy approach to this WOE... green leafy vegetables for my carb allowances (the ones with the nutrients), lean protiens, and lots of healthy vegetable fats like EVO, CO, and avacado.…

Slightly OT... stretch marks?
Soooooo, have any of you guys had success treating your stretch marks? I am not asking to make them completely vanish... I just want to improve their texture. I hate how they feel more than how they look! I've been thinking about getting a derma roller, which seems to have pretty good results for what they are (torture…

Needed an active Weight Loss community
I am someone who likes to gab... ALOT! Most internet forums are not as active, so I post but don't get the immediate feedback I want. Hopefull I can find that here. As for me, I am 23 and striving to be as healthy as possible. I have already lost 23 lbs this summer/fall and hope to continue that road of reaching my goal…
