Feeling absolutely gutted...
Went to the gym today, and had a pretty decent workout. Also haven't eaten a lot and that feels good too. It's nice feeling like I am back on track, and I am, for the most part, in a good mood. At least, I was until I weighed myself at the gym. Their scale was broken, and it said I weighed ten pounds less than what I…

How did you overcome anxiety of running in public?
It's always the same thing: I get ready to go for a run, I get out there, I start running...and then the anxiety hits me. I am scared people are looking at me or that I look stupid. Today I only made it ten minutes before I had to go home, as I usually run at night when it's less busy. Any ideas on how to overcome this…

How can I make my plain protein powder tasty?
It's Progressive Harmonized Protein, and it's kinda...gross without flavouring. How can I make it tastier when adding to smoothies? I don't add sugar or anything to smoothies, and it's kind of tiresome slamming back my daily smoothie because the protein tastes bad. Any ideas?

Virtual Feast/Food Porn
Oh god, it's that time of the month again and all I want is to wrap myself up in a blanket and eat comfort foods and cry. Even if had the ingredients for these, I am too lazy to make them right now so decided to have a virtual feast instead. The above foods would totally be eaten in that order too. <3

Do meal replacements really work?
Hi all! Will start off with: not judging anyone's choice of eating, just curious so want some answers. Do meal replacements; such as bars and shakes, really work for long-term weight loss? I always thought that since most of them are so calorie, the weight would be gained back once a person gets off them? Is that…

nsv...the bra.
Right now, I am wearing a 36DD bra. To many of you, this is probably huge, to me it is the best feeling I've had in a long time. See, just five days ago I had a breast reduction. I went from a size g - n (depends on brand) to a DD. Yes, this bra is a little bit small (I am probably a 38 or 40DD) but just the fact that I am…

Are there any exercises I can do at home with just legs?
I had a surgery five days ago, and won't be able to work out my upper body for another four weeks or so. I am getting pretty restless not working out at all, and I know I need time to heal, but are there any low-impact workouts that won't affect my upper body to do them? Or am I just shooting in the dark? Thanks!
