Fast heart rate skinny girl
My whole life I ate anything I wanted and never gained an ounce. I had a resting heart rate of 120-136. My cardi said my heart was twice its age and as long as it kept beating that way, I'd never gain weight and I would die very young. After a mild heart attack and getting a dx of A-fib, they medicated me to keep my HR at…

free workout videos online
Hey everyone. I would like to get toned (NOT RIPPED) by summer. I have seen a lot of great workout videos that sorta target the whole body and mix it up, but after having my child on chemo for 6 months I don't wanna spend money if I don't absolutely HAVE to. Does anyone know of any good workouts on you tube or maybe…

Fibromyalgia Chronic Fatigue sufferers?
What do you do for excercise? I am doing predominately swimming right now because it doesn't make me cry. I'm also doing dancing but it has to be done at the end of the day because of the pain afterward. Just curious who else suffers and how you burn calories.

Just a vent
While my little one was on chemo I spent every second with her in the hospital. I ate 3 meals a day there. I was pretty shocked at the tiny tiny bit of healthy options. The food was surprisingly yummy, but only a couple salady healthy type things to choose from. The only time I stayed under on calories was the night I got…

I'm back and I have a question
Hi you guys! Wel I kept the weight off for almost a year. A long hard year. After I got the good news that my little girl wasn't gong to die and was in remission I sorta went nuts taking her out to dinner, having lots of sweets, eating a lot of junk while traveling with her. Well, now here I am with 10 of my lost pounds…

WTH
WTH!?My son is a Celiac and he and my daughter have both tested positive for a wheat allergy. I have been eating gluten free because when I'd eat wheat my lips would swell and I'd have hives all over. Well, I still haven't even eaten yet today and my lips are burning and all swelled up and I'm wheezing. My gums are even…

Long story short...my neighbors are an elderly couple whose adult kids abandoned their 7 young kids with them. The children are 7 little walking nightmares. I dread summer because they are always there, bullying, stealing, breaking toys, and damaging my property. I've confronted the grandparents but they are just doing the…

hmmm what am I missing?
I am coming in way under my "maintain weight" calories, but slightly over my "lose weight" calories. But I have gained1.5 pounds in just 2 days. I started a butt workout yesterday but i highly doubt I gained 1.5 pounds of tush tone, so what gives? I'm drinking tons of water. Sodium hasn't changed. TOM just ended, but I am…

Does anyone know the nae of this Chineese dish?
I meant the name of it. Hubby ordered it and now he's gone and I'm eating it for lunch and would like to log it but have no idea what it is. It's got celery, baby corn, it's kinda hot, has pork???, and peanuts.

What would you do?
I'm 5'8" and currently 133.5. My goal weight was 125 because that's what I was 10 years ago in my pic with hubby in black swimsuits in my profile and I think I looked nice. Well now I'm pretty happy at 133.5 which i am in my profile pic. I have come to realize that I wont be able to get as tight looking as I was then…

Any OTR trucker wives out there?
How often is your bubby home? How does it effect your dieting? Mine is only home on Saturday spends the night and leaves Sunday night. We used to eat huge when he was home, but lately I've been worried about his health. He drinks a whole case of Coke while he's out during the week. He's 5'11" and currently weighs 180, so…

Sorta NSV
I had lost weight before finding MFP and one of my MFP friends just showed me how to add that to MFP so it shows more accurately how far I've come! So it feels more like a victory seeing that big number instead of my measly 7 I've been stuck on for a while. For some reason people get on here and see a tall girl who weighs…

Problem with eating back my earned calories
Anytime I do any kind of cardio even just slow paced walking I get mega heart burn that usually lasts the rest of the day. this makes it very hard to eat back those earned calories because I feel so sick. I can't take a lot of antacids because they conflict with another medication I'm on for my heart. I can chew tums or…

I think I'm allergic to wheat
OK, My son has severe celiacs disease and is also allergic to wheat. His CD almost killed him 2 years ago. So I try to keep wheat out of the house. I had stopped eating it altogether because of him. Because if I ate it and then kisseed him he'd get violently ill to the point of spitting up blood and getting hives all over…

Anyone else have these issues with their abs after a c secti
My weight loss is good. I'm officially my version of skinny but my abs are so soft. they look flat and good when I'm standing. When I sit or bend down they roll. After my c section I pulled an ab muscle by trying to do too much too soon. It was pretty much the most painful thing ever. Well that was 5 years ago and I have…

Does anyone know
if there is a site similar to MFP that would measure your child's calories and protien and all that? My 5 year old has feeding issues and dietary restrictions and I'd love something like this that would keep track of his daily nutrients, so I can be sure he's getting his needs met.
