Ouch, Question about workout nutrition
So I have been having the worst muscle cramps and what I am guessing are shin splints . I worked out Thursday, but it was nothing extreme. However, my calves have been cramping up terribly since. I try to limit my carbohydrate intake to mostly post-workout due to insulin resistance. I have a question. When I strength…

"Steroids won't cause any weight gain."
LIES! I was by no means of the definition "small." However, last fall I was at an ok weight. I have asthma that decides to go through spells of worsening depending on the weather. Anyways, this is a picture of me last October (I hadn't had a dose of steroids in 8 months). Well then I got sick and went on steroids for about…

Everything is a copy of a copy
" For six months I couldn't sleep. With insomnia, nothing's real. Everything is far away. Everything is a copy of a copy of a copy. " then you have random lines from random songs play in your head repeatedly. Yikes.

You can call the asylum and tell them to bring the straight
I've been having kind of a hard time lately. I went from working a full-time internship, my second job, and school to just working the second job. Although I've been working a lot the hours are varied so I've just been adjusting. Recently I can't seem to get my head out of the past... the worst part is that it…

lololol Online Dating
Ok, Seriously though... today I was off work and really bored. I got to thinking about what it is like to live in a college town, but to be older than the average crazy 19 and 20 year olds. I can be shy at first, and I haven't been on a date in quite a while. So I thought to myself, is there really a stigma on online…

Elephants ...
are living above me. A203I23#334!. They were stomping around from 5 am to 9 am (from which point the maintenance people started mowing/weed eating/blowing and someone else was moving stuff out), then from 2 pm til 6pm, and now from 8pm to nearly midnight. I think they're zombies. I have no idea when they sleep I just…

I need help
I just returned from a visit to my hometown and I feel so sad. It's a really long drive, and I just always have problems when I go there. Between family and being haunted by old memories, it just seems it has really thrown me through a loop this time. I run into my ex's family.. and it just sucks because I miss them at the…

Red Hot Chili Peppers!
So is anyone else excited that RHCP has announced United States tour dates? They are the band that I used to say I wanted to see in my lifetime. I thought I might never get the chance. This announcement comes as sort of bittersweet news to me. I have other friends I am going to attend the concert with, but for me I will…

Under the weather
I went out of town the week of Thanksgiving and just got back Monday night. I have a huge paper due and I'm working full time. I guess the stress coupled with asthma is disrupting my sleep. I am exhausted, and way behind on my normal routine. I guess I just want to hear that other people have weeks like this.

It's finals week .. let's throw a party!
No but seriously. I'm not trying to be completely lame... but I am exhausted. I work 2 jobs and I have a huge research paper due on Wens. On top of that, I'm getting sick. I was about to fall asleep and my roommate comes home and is currently yelling and drinking in the living room with her friends. I know my…

Dear Random Guy at the Gym,
Thank you so much for blatantly laughing at me when I used my inhaler and when I coughed because it wasn't working. I used to think I was being paranoid... I typically hide to use it... but now I see it's a legitimate reason to be self-conscious. I was born this way, but I chose not to let it hold me back. I may have even…

Confidence
...easier said than done. However, I feel as if confidence and success ( in different aspects of life) have direct effects on one another. I guess it's just a balancing act.

I can't breathe in this weather...
and as a result I am exhausted for no reason. It recently just got cold here. I will adjust to it , but for right now I have very little motivation. I know I just need to force myself to go work out ... I just get so frustrated when I can only get halfway through a workout without asthma kicking me in the lungs. After 22…

Black Friday - DUN DUN DUN
So, I was combing the ads as a the usual post Thanksgiving meal and I thought of something. Anyone see anything relevent to the healthy lifestyle journey in the ads? Steamers, exercise equipment, clothes, etc? What's the coolest thing you've seen so far?

WARNING - graphic detail inside
So, I'm visiting my parents. I should have brought some groceries down but let's just say their selection isn't my ideal healthy choices. However, today I started to feel really lightheaded and I realized I hadn't ate in 8 hours. So I tried to find something that was low carb and quick. I ate a hotdog. I usually buy the…

Facebook and MFP
I have gotten to a point where I spend more time on MFP than I do on Facebook. I used to be a total Facebook junkie, but lately I feel that all it is good for is bringing people down and starting drama. I no longer speak to the majority of my "friends" and I feel like spending too much time on Facebook can just make a…
