163.5 to 128.8
This took years for me. Despite the fact that I work for a health and nutrition company and I have access to materials and products, I still didn't fully admit to myself that I was worth the effort. It clicked to me this summer and I finally met (and then far surpassed) my goal.

Just diagnosed and really a mess
Hello all! I suffered from heart failure for 13 years (from pregnancy) - then I got the all clear last month that my heart finally recovered. Went to the Gynecologist and she ran labs - turns out my cholesterol is outrageous ( it could be higher, but with my heart history, it's not good), my TSH is 4.26, D3 is 22 and Omega…

Cramp Fasciculation Syndrome and Exercise anyone?
Just wondering if anyone else out there has been diagnosed with Cramp Fasciculation Syndrome or Issacs on this site that has managed to find exercises that they can do? The exercise intolerance, stiffness and full blown hour long cramps make it very difficult for me to even walk some days - I know it's a long shot that…

Just wondering how many other Oklahoman's are out there trying to get healthy and in turn get our name off the heavy list!? If you're from Oklahoma, holler, --…

Detox?
Does anyone ever detox/cleanse? Not sure the safest way to do it, but positive that I need to give it a try (for reasons unprintable here) :) So what have you tried, what works, and what sucks? I appreciate any input! Thanks!

Best Eating Out Options? Your favorites?
I flat out BLOW IT when we eat out - tonight, the menu said it was healthy when I ordered my Margharita Chicken at Chilis - - but when I entered it at home, it was 600 calories - which I understand is okay for some, but I don't like my heaviest meal at the end of the day to be that much calories... however on the weekend,…

Not getting enough calories...
I know that I am sabotaging my own weight loss, but the past three days I can't get enough calories -I'm logging everything, and I am still at 400-600 remaining calories (without any exercise) - I've been so busy during the day that I can't find a lot of time to eat at work - and I hate to eat late at night because I know…
