It might be my imagination, but I swear I can taste blood if I push myself too hard when I'm running. It's almost like I can see the little alveoli in my lungs exploding, and when I'm huffing and puff…
I have such a sweet tooth and I've been eating terribly the last few days, so I am issuing a challenge to myself and anyone else who wants to join me: no sweets for a full week. I've gone through peri…
Okay, I don't know if this really counts as an NSV, but it certainly feels like it to me because it helped me readjust my goals and expectations, so here 'goes: I was looking online for bathing suits …
I keep seeing these ads for new shoes that have weird toe dividers in them, so I did some research and it turns out they're not actually very good for you!! But they're the latest-greatest thing at my…
I'm feeling really fuzzy-headed today and would love to know if anyone has favorite foods that they find help them slough off that brain fog. :yawn: I'm not talking about taking a handful of gingko su…
I keep seeing all this information stating that it takes more calories to keep up muscle rather than fat. The thing is, every piece of gym equipment, and even my heart rate monitor, only seems to take…
I get emails from lots of different health advisement sources and one recent article was one something called MMS, which is sodium chlorite. They describe it as a detox agent and a possible continuous…
I've done yoga classes at the gym and used to belong to a yoga studio, but I've not been in quite some time. I'm curious if there are others that do yoga following a DVD that could give me some recomm…
After all the pro-hrm posts here I've decided to get one, but I have a huge concern: I have really skinny wrists. I have a very hard time finding bracelets and watches because most of the time, not on…
I'm very close to my goal weight (about 5 lbs to go) but I want to have more muscle than I do now. I've seen it written all over MFP that a person can't really build muscle while functioning on a calo…
I have depression issues (hey, who doesn't?) that stem partly from how I view myself externally, and partly how I talk to myself internally. I am so incredibly impressed at how much better I am with f…
I've been thinking lately about seeing a nutritionist, but I have some doubts about how helpful one would actually be. First off, I'm vegetarian but don't eat any animal products besides yogurt and Am…
I think I'm seriously addicted to sugar. No, I mean *really* addicted... if it's possible. I find that if I manage to resist, for a day or two (which is next to impossible), eating refined sugars then…
I'm frustrated because it doesn't seem like it takes much at all to send me over my daily sugar allotment. If I have a banana and a cup of yogurt, that's close to all the sugar I'm supposed to have. H…
Hi, I've been lurking on the chat boards for a couple weeks and have finally decided to post a 'hello' in the hopes of finding some friends. I'm looking to lose 10-15 lbs, which may not sound like a l…
