So there's this guy...
at the gym... I've watched him run on the treadmill. He's super fit and runs for 60 minutes at a breakneck pace the entire time. He wears a lot of marathon t-shirts and a close buzz cut. My gym is on campus, so most people there are about my age so naturally I figured he was too. Imagine my surprise when I finally catch…

Protein powders that can be mixed in water?
Hiya, I'm looking for a protein powder that I can mix in water rather than adding the extra calories and sugar from almond milk, like I'm used to. I love the plant protein powder I have been using, but I want to be able to drink more and it just doesn't fit into my calorie goals. Long story short, what protein powders have…

Flax seed recipes
I'm looking for yummy flax seed recipes. I don't currently have any flax oil, but I have whole and ground. My little cousin has been having *ahem* gastrointestinal issues and I know that flax does good BUT I don't have any yummy recipes that she'd be willing to eat.

Does counting calories bum you out?
I'm sure it can't just be me that gets bummed out at the thought of counting calories for the rest of my life... I have had success maintaining weight with "intuitive eating," which is what I'd like to do once I reach my goal weight. What about you? Do you really plan on counting calories for the rest of your life?

Carb loading before a tournament...
I just signed up for a city-wide tennis tournament for this Saturday. I'll be on the courts for 5+ hours. In previous situations, I have never felt really energized after carb loading the night before. As a matter of fact, I think I feel rather sluggish which is NOT the desired effect. Also, I am prone to dizzy spells due…

Pilates- Does it do what it claims?
I am wondering what your experiences are with pilates exercise. It claims to "reshape" your body- does it? What changes/improvements have you seen in your physique? Thanks to all the posters!
