Eat more, lose more?
I have read so many times that I should eat back the calories I burn, but I struggle with even eating the 1700 calories a day. I normally burn between 700-1200 calories during my work out. I would just like feedback on your success with eating back your calories, even some of them. Also, what do you eat? I find it nearly…

50ish lbs down? Not sure!
Recently I admitted to having a very unhealthy relationship with the scale. I was weighing MULTIPLE times a day, and no matter how well I ate or how much my workouts improved, if the scale didn't move at the pace I thought it should, I would feel really down. So I decided to go a month and a half without weighing. I have…

hellllllp!
Hi there :) I've been on my weight loss journey for quite sometime (about a year) and I have one part of my body that has not changed.. my lower legs/calves. The muscles have gotten bigger/stronger but the way my legs look, have not changed. It is highly discouraging. I run, I lift, I work my legs often. I see people who…

L.A. FITNESS SCAM.
So I decided to get a personal trainer at L.A. Fitness. It was kind of expensive so of course I had TONS of questions.

When he asked me to sign I asked to read over it…

NEW HRM
I just got the Polar FT7 and can not seem to get it to pick up my heart rate. I did everything according to the manual. Any advice? Either: A) I'm heartless B) it's defective or C) I just suck at reading user manuals. I think the answer may be B.

Missing, please look to see if you recognize him...
Hey guys! My cousin went missing around a week ago and hasn't been found. His truck was found wrecked. His wallet was there but empty and his cell phone was there. His phone hasn't been used since he left his house that morning (September 13th). I know this isn't about weight loss but I thought maybe as many people as…

Parents at fault for overweight children?
Today I was at the Chiropractor and a little girl told her mom "I want an apple!" they had them sitting out along with some other fruit for patients to eat. Her mom just ignored her. Once again she told her mom "Mom, I want to eat an apple!" The girl was about 4-5 years old at most. After a few times of telling her how…

Fat girls and facebook?
So this guy I went to highschool with just said on his status "What's up with all these fat girls posting pictures like they're not fat or something? Whether its a head shot or whole body shot, you're still fat and shouldn't post your pictures!!" REALLY? So now fat people can't share a photo that they're happy about? I…

Grossed out by food?
Okay! Here it goes. So, I've always been weird about eating meat.. For the longest time (as long as I can remember) when I consciously think of what I am eating (an animal) I feel extremely grossed out and begin to gag.. and then I stop eating instantly. Well, recently it's gotten worse. Especially with chicken and beef.…
