Yoga.... or Hot Yoga?
I'm relatively new to fitness; I just joined my local gym and they offer regular yoga and hot yoga. I've never done any yoga before so I'm not sure which I should choose. The girl at the gym says they are both good for all fitness levels.

Hi, new....again...
How do I change my starting weight? Thank you!
-
Please help
So, I guess I'm starting over...yet again. I'm trying not to beat myself up, however, I've gained back quite a bit of the weight I lost since the top of this year. Anyway, I suppose what I'm trying to get at is this: what is my best course of action to lose the weight with a 3rd shift job at a gas station and junk food all…

Any metal heads out there?
For me, the heavier the better. \m/ :glasses:

Which do you prefer?
When eating a salad, do you choose a fat-free/low fat option for dressing, even if its laced with added sugars? Or, do you do for the real thing? Full fat, but little to not added sugar? For example, honey mustard dressing is the fat free option at the restaurant you're at. While being lower calorie and fat free, it has…

I'll just leave this here...

Just ate three slices of Veggie pizza
Way over my calories for the first time. I'm not really sweating it too much. That pizza was freaking delicious. Not just any ol' pizza, this comes from the local gas station up the street from me. So, I suppose I will eat less tomorrow, fit in a bit more cardio and be over it. :drinker:

Before and during
I was at my heaviest in this photo, 203lbs. This was Thanksgiving, last year. And this is me today, 181lbs. I have lost 21 pounds since January 1st. Please, don't judge my messy hair, lol. :laugh: I haven't taken any diet pills, I haven't starved. I just eat what I like (yes, I have limited the junk), and do exersice that…

Anyone doing Zumba on Xbox?

My latest NSV
A good friend of mine was pub crawling for St. Paddy's day this past weekend and found a Dropkick Murphys hoodie. It's in perfect condition, practically brand new, size SMALL. So, seeing as my buddy is a rather big guy, he posts on Facebook that he's looking to get rid of it. I saw I'll take a look. I got it today,…

Ugh...wth....
I binged. For the first time in months. I feel sick, both emotionally and physically. Why do I keep doing this?

Just not in the mood
I think I'm going to take a break from food-logging for a bit. Not that I'm going to get crazy and eat crap, however, all this tracking and perfecting my macros is getting exhausting. My OCD is on the fritz.

Beef and broccoli nutrition facts?
How do I log when I order Chinese food from my local takeout place? I'm actually thinking ahead...I'm going to order tomorrow and get beef and broccoli-no rice.

I'm getting tired of Jillian...

From January 1 to present, I'm down 15lbs and went from a 16/18 jeans to 12/14 jeans! No special diet or pills, just eating right, moderate exercise, and most importantly, a positive attitude. :happy:

Coconut oil
I just bought some coconut oil today and I'm curious as to how to use it. Thoughts? What are the benefits of using coconut oil on a regular basis?

How's the weather in your neck of the woods?
I'm in eastern Iowa and we are expecting 6-12 inches of snow between now and Saturday. :grumble:

I'm considering getting a fitbit and I'm wanting some feedback from people use it. Is it pretty accurate? Likes/dislikes?

Reducing sugar?
I almost always go over my sugar, which is set at 35grams. It's not like I'm eating junk....it's only stems from milk and fruit. So, should I worry about it or not? I figure if its coming from natural foods, then it's fine, right?

Non-scale victory
13 lbs down, my rings are getting loose and a pair of pants that didn't fit in the beginning of January, now fit perfectly!

Ugh, calories...
Ok, so I know what I'm supposed to be doing. My problem is not over eating but rather under eating. I have hardly any appetite due mostly to medication (not weight loss med, by the way). I'm struggling to even eat 1200 calories per day, let alone eat enough to meet my BMR. I probably should be eating around 1600-1700. If I…

BMR?
Are you supposed to eat the amount of calories according to the BMR or less? Also, should you eat back the calories you burn through exercise?

Has anyone read the book "Wheat Belly"?
I just started it tonight and was wondering what others think of it and if anyone has given up wheat (or any other type of food). What kind of experience/results did you have?
