I quit smoking and you will too
Today is 3 weeks since I smoked my last cigarette. I started almost two years ago, when I was 22. I don't know what I was thinking except "this is not even good, I can quit anytime" and quickly, I started smoking a pack a day. I didn't do it for "social reasons" or because it "looks cool", it doesn't. It's a HUGE turnoff,…

Goodbye protein bars
So i'm pretty sure I am whey intolerant, i haven't had whey protein powder in more than a year, but I remember when I was having it regularly it would make me bloat. Lately I've been eating quest bars and luna protein bars, which I absolutely love and they help me hit my protein goals everyday but I've been noticing the…

Overtraining is a myth!
At least that's what my boyfriend says. He claims i should be working out every single day, and that I am no professional athlete so there's no danger of overtraining.

Smoking
So i started smoking a year ago. I remember my first few days as a smoker, i was thinking "hey this is making me less hungry!", also foolishly thinking that I can always stop. Then it became heavy, I am going through a pack a day now. The reasons to quit are obvious, but my biggest one is not health, or the money i'll…

A question about cardio
So what do you think about cardio? I honestly don't enjoy it, so i push myself through 20 minutes of high intensity cardio before doing my weight training. Can't even think of being on those machines for more than that. I am doing it in the first place because it feels more like i've worked out after i'm done, because i…
