Starting P90X3
I lady at my work is a beachbody coach and asked me to join a team with her to start P90X3. I really want to but I'm afraid it'll be too intense and extreme at the moment. Any thoughts on P90X?

Baby got too much back?
So here is the issue. I enjoy wearing dresses, they're easy and fun. However, my torso is smaller than my thighs and booty. Yes, I'm sure everyone is looking for that hour glass figure, smaller in the middle and a little curve on the bottom, but I'm not really THAT tiny in the middle. It is enough, though, that when I buy…

Running Endurance Question!
I've been running now for a few years but am now starting to actually feel like a "runner." I really need to work on endurance. I get my head so wrapped around my mile time that I can really only run for about 1 1/2-2 miles before I'm done. I have a hard time admitting that my mile time will be slower but I will be able to…

Muscle Pain Solutions
I've had a muscle pain in my right calf for quite a while. I've tired to massage it and check for any tightness and I have started making my stretching routines longer before I workout. Nothing has seemed to help but I often feel like it may be related to some lower back pain I have. This lower back pain has been around…

Anxiety at the Gym
I've noticed recently that I get a little anxious when I go to the gym. I worry about all the people around me. I've noticed that this also effects how effectively I work out on some days. On days when the gym is busier I am more anxious than on days when there are fewer people there. Does this happen to anyone else? Can…

Fluctuating Numbers!!
So I've been doing this diet solid for about 2 months now and perhaps I've gotten to a stand still?

Under the Weather Weight Loss?
Hi all I just had a concern that I thought a few of my MFP's might be able to answer. I've been feeling a bit under the weather this afternoon, and it is certainly cold here in Indiana.

Break Out Session!
Hi everyone I have a quick question that I thought MFP's might be able to answer? I've noticed in the last 10 days I've been watching my cals. I have started breaking out again, and not just my face!

Weigh-In Times
So I've been wondering is there a specific time when one should weigh themselves? Is it better to weigh yourself in the morning or the evening? Or does it even matter as long as you are consistent? I've been weighing myself right when I wake up, but I'm not sure if that is realistic since I haven't eaten anything at that…
