Shoulder Dislocation
Hey all- Last night I dislocated my shoulder while I was sleeping. This used to happen to me a lot when I was younger (and not exercising) and after the first few times of it happening, it was a breeze to put back in. 2 years ago was the last time I dislocated before last night. I went to the hospital after I had put it…

Man down...first injury and so many questions
Tuesday was a horrible, horrible day when mid run I knew something was wrong and had to stop. I've been in pain since, and about 80% sure I pulled a groin muscle and pulled it badly (I have a red line going down my leg at the site). So here are some questions I've been having if anyone has any input it's more than…

Detox foods
So a lot of the "detox recommended" foods I've seen on various websites over the past few months, I eat pretty regularly. Would it still be beneficial to do a cleanse? I enjoy these foods so I'll continue to eat them either way but just curious if it has the same effects regularly being in my diet?

New Runner: Time or distance for improvement?

Eating Out
I go out a lot with my friends or my boyfriend and usually end up eating out twice a week or so. When I don't eat out, I usually try to eat dinner before 6 (sometimes it does go to 7), but I know it makes a difference in the way I feel that night and the next day. But when I go out for dinner, it's usually 8 that we meet…

The first ten lbs came off easy...now what?
My first ten flew off. Once I got the food scale, seriously tracked my calories, and committed myself to a workout routine, it was nothing. 10 lbs in two weeks! But now, the weight loss has stopped and I actually put a pound back on. I'm attributing this to muscle though.. So, I do 4 days of cardio (mostly kick boxing) but…

To eat or not to eat?
Hi there! I'm just getting started, in fact last week was the first time I've ever tracked my calories. I had no idea how few calories I was eating! I'm trying to up my intake, but I'm finding it hard. to get above 1,000 some days. Should I force it?
