Any suggestions for the next binge watching session? What are…

Slippery Slope/ HELP PLEASE
I'm in a restricting phase right now, a medically supervised low-cal, low-carb diet. I've done really well and found will power somewhere I didn't even know I had. I've binged a couple times by eating too many protein bars (like an entire box in a sitting), but the caloric content was still low enough that I could…

do body wraps work?
Hey Folks, So, I have a lot of weight to lose and I really, really, wanna keep my skin as tight and firm as possible. I've seen some adverts for body wraps at local spas that are supposed to help with that. They say to go in after every ten pounds lost, and get the wrap. Any anecdotal evidence that it works? Or any science…

Sweet Sabotage
Told my Mom I can't have these Peanut Butter Temptation protein bars in my house or I will binge eat them. Like, four in a sitting. I'll try to remain strong, but no matter what I'm doing, my brain will just keep showing me the image of where they are in the pantry until I HAVE TO PUT THEM IN MY FACE. My stomach has shrunk…

how to get blog readers?
Hey y'all- been here for a while, just wondering how you go about getting readers for your blog? I just posted one that doesn't seem appropriate for the boards, but to which I'd still love feedback/discussion around. Is there a place we can drop links or something?

increased water intake- dry skin, chapped lips, breakouts!
I have good skin. Have my whole life. I'll get an occasional stupid red facial visitor around once a month, but generally, nada. Since I've started significantly increasing my water intake (usually around 128 oz or more) in the past week, I have been breaking out like a teenager! Like, right now I have seven effing zits on…

how do you overcome the urge to over eat?
Hey Folks, I'm on a low carb and low calorie diet at the moment. I've been sure to take my supplements, drink enough water and replace electrolytes, get my protein in. Apart from sugar withdrawal headaches the first couple days, it had been an easy week. Today was the first day (day 6) the legit hunger caught up with me. I…

I wanna lift heavy!
I'm super flexible, but weak like a newborn. Seriously, like grocery bags can stress my biceps. It would be AMAAAAZING to be able to lift or press or whathaveyou a glorious and ridiculous amount. Any good books/vids/programs for someone starting at basically zero on the fit scale? (Oh yea, my knees are crap, if that makes…
