Migraines/Tension Headaches
For the last 2 days, immediatly after I do an intense 30 minute workout; I get a really bad migraine. After taking medicine and laying down for about 3 hours, the migraine turns into a tension headache. This has been making it hard for me to even meet the 1200 calorie goal per day. Can anyone offer me some guidence? I am…
How has your lifestyle affect your family/friends?
I am curious to find how many other people's new way of life has affected their family/friends... My husband has been able to cut out all soda and now drinks only water. (which is huge, considering he would drink 8 cans of Mountain Dew in day) My kids are doing the exercises with me. My family has cut out all red meat from…
Small NSV
I went to the doctor today and learned that my exercise-induced asthma is GONE!!! I was diagnosed with it when I first started putting on the weight a little over 15 years ago and now I can honestly say that I no longer have to carry around an inhalor everytime I go to workout, let alone walk around at the grocery store!
To much Water?
Okay, I cut out all other drinks and am drinking only water for the last 2 days. I average about 16 cups of water a day . The problem lies with the food now. All the water that I am drinking is gives me the feeling of being full all the time. I struggle just eating what I did today. I am only at about 495 calories today…
Angry, Depressed, and wanting to QUIT!
I have lost 20 lbs to date. I am 5'2" and currently weigh 187--down from 207.2. I AM NOT SEEING THE RESULTS!!! I look at all the wonderful success stories and feel so pround of everyone. But, it makes me angry to see people who have lost 20lbs and look AMAZING. Then I get depressed, because I don't see it. Then I want to…
Clothing...
At what point did you stop wearing the baggy (as I like to call then the "fat clothes") and start wearing more form fitting clothes? I have lost 20 pounds since starting my lifestyle change and still wear my fat clothes (I will admit they are looser though). Is it a body image thing that makes you or doesn't make you…
Family Recipes--HELP
Okay everyone, I need your help!!! I need some good (healthy) dinner recipes to make for my family. I am tired of making 2 different meals every night!!! The recipes can't be to far off the wall though. My husband and girls all have unbelievable metabolism, so they love the meat and potato - type of meals. And for obvious…
Water...HELP!!!
I know that you should drink at least 8 cups or 64 ounces of water a day; but can't. I have tried and tried, but no matter the water...bottled or tap; I just can't drink the full 8 cups. I can barely get the first 8 ounces down and that takes me all day!!! Can anyone offer some suggestions or tricks they use??? Thank you…
NSV
I have a NSV that astonished me today and thought I should share... Everyone knows those nasty love-handles, right? I had 2 on each side...the upper handle and the loswer handle. Well, today as I was getting dressed, I looked in the mirror and to my surprise....there is only one love handle now!!! I HAVE A WAIST THAT GOES…
Frustrated...
I have lost 12 pounds so far. I eat right and exercise everyday for AT LEAST 30 minutes (strenously). I do not see the results though other than what the scale says! Did anyone notice their first 10 or 15 pounds? Or do I need to give it some more time? I know the question may sound silly. I also know that Rome wasn't built…
