Exercise for an injured shouler
I managed to get a broken collarbone a while back. I worked through it and it's healing, but the MRI showed that my shoulder is deteriorating. Yay for growing older. :tongue: I've started working with some light free-weights to strengthen the muscles up around it but I really don't know what I'm doing. What kind of…

Knocking on one year smoke free
I quit smoking January 16th of last year. Yay! Gained almost 40 pounds. Not yay. Anyone else in the same boat? I started back with martial arts to keep the weight at bay, but now I'm having to watch what i eat ( I NEVER had to do this in the past) and drag my happy butt to the gym...alone...all by myself since no one else…

Food porn...who knew?
I never knew such a list existed, however I caught it on Reuters today that the Cheesecake Factory pasta is on the list of caloric "food porn." Anyone ever tried it? I'm not going to, I'd just like to think about it for a bit.

Coconut oil v/s olive oil...which is better?
There are great points to both for the skin and for cooking. I know coconut can take higher heat, but otherwise, which is better for you?

Calories or carbs?
I'm kind of confused on the whole calorie or carb thing. Now that I'm over 40, I really don't know WHAT I should focus on to lose the 30 plus pounds I need to lose. Can you enlighten me? :huh:

Is it physical or psychological?
Hunger. I began to think about this recently, and personally I think I've mistaken feeling the urge to eat constantly as hunger (psychological) rather than truly being hungry (physical). If the belly isn't feeling true emptiness, then it has to be, for me, a psychological habit I've gotten myself into. Does anyone else…

Self defense for exercise and a life skill
I saw a post or two earlier today that have really bothered me. Two women had been victims of verbal abuse. I am a past victim of violence, so this is a personal issue for me. Not trying to be preachy, but domestic violence of women and men begins with verbal abuse. I read a stat a while back that said one in five…

The Middle Age wonderland
Good afternoon y'all, some quick notes. I was always thin, 5'9" at about 140 pounds, but then I quit smoking back on January 16th almost a year ago. In March, I started in Taekwondo to at least keep me limber. My age has brought about some health issues (fun fun, the great rebellion of the body), so on days I don't go to…
