I'm just curious to know what your experience is/was with breastfeeding and how it impacted…

Lifting routines that got you results...
I'm no newb to lifting but I just had a baby and I don't really want to think about coming up with a lifting routine or choosing one that I'm unsure will yield results.

*GROUP*--calling women who lift & eat (TDEE-20% or more)
Okay, so a few years ago I started a thread based on women who eat 2000+ calories a day--and I met dokey if the most amazing, like-minded women who eventually became close friends. For over a year we shared our lives and fitness journey and it was ABSOLUTELY ENCOURAGING AND SUPPORTIVE. My hope is much the same this time…

Pregnant Ladies--Focused on HEALTH. <3
I'd love some pregnant friends or even just to post on this thread about pregnancy stuff. I find the groups to lack the social interaction that I'm yearning for (since I've not yet made my pregnancy public).

Cats and cat gifs ....
I hate them both. They are not made cuter by calling them kitties either. Also, I will never understand why someone would choose to own a cat when they could have a dog instead. ::scratches head:: Maybe some of you can help...since there appears to be a love of cat gifs at the very least. Why do YOU love cats/cat gifs?

New/old member: love4fitnesslove4food
Hey everyone! After a lot of mental and physical rehabilitation I'm back! I am humbly less fit but also happier. I want my body to return to one I recognize but without slaving away at the gym for 2 hours minimum each day. That's where you all come in. You inspire me for so long and I want that support system back. So if…
