Gym setback??!!??!
So long story short, I’ve been hitting the gym pretty consistently for the last six months. I’ve gotten to the point where I look forward to going to the gym. Lifting time is MY time. Unfortunately, due to ego, I’ve injured my back. Just strained it I think. I’m feeling pretty depressed that I won’t be able to work out for…

Jogger/Runner advice needed!!!
So I've dabbled with jogging off and on but I've never stuck with it. This time feels different. I've been walking/jogging for a little over two weeks. I take two days off throughout the week. I wake up looking forward to my jog. For about a week though, my ankles hurt quite a bit only while I jog and a few minutes after I…

Tractor Tire/Tire Flips
I have just acquired two large tractor tires and would like to start using them for a workout. I have done some research on proper workouts utilizing a tire and have found some mixed responses. Some say it should only be used for bodybuilding and some say working out with a tire (tire flips, etc.) is pointless. Does anyone…

Advice?
Ugh. I have definitely slipped back into old habits. The more I eat, the more I crave. I haven't exercised since the week before Christmas. I have to turn this around before I gain more than the three pounds I've already gained back. It doesn't help that I have two weeks off for Christmas. It has totally thrown off my…

Will I make it to my first 5k?
So i've been steadily losing weight for the last 4 months. I went from a high of 448lbs to 392lbs. I finally feel like I'm at a point where I can start doing more serious physical activity. I signed up for a 2 mile holiday fun run and really enjoyed myself. I have a taste of jogging and I want more. My question is, has…

Sleep Apnea Recovery?
Hi all! I was just wondering if there is anyone out there that was diagnosed with Sleep Apnea but no longer has it due to weight loss. I was diagnosed with Sleep Apnea and I use a cpap. I know if I fall asleep without it, I wake up several times a night gasping for breath. I hate to think of having to sleep with that bulky…

With this being said, I started my weight loss on August 1st. To date I have lost 32lbs as of today. I took my month pictures and I don't see any difference.…

Question about logging
Hi all. This may be a dumb question but I'm a bit confused. I am going to a local Japanese steak house that serves hibachi style food. I have searched but they do not have nutritional information anywhere. How would I go about logging the food as accurately as possible? Any ideas?

Too much too soon?
Hi all, I just recently rejoined two weeks ago and I'm more determined than ever. I have quite a bit to lose (about 225lbs) I've been doing pretty good so far. My concern is I may be losing too fast. in the span of two weeks, I have lost 19lbs. I've heard than when you start losing weight, water weight is first. Could this…

Let's talk YoYo
Hey everyone, I've been on this site for quite a while. I've restarted more times than I'd like to count. Each time it's more of the same. I do great for a month... and then I gain it all back. My "one month curse" I call it. I really outdid myself this past time. I gained all of the waste I had lost plus more. I am…

Cheat day?
I don't mean to open a can of worms or anything but I was wondering if I could get some opinions about a "cheat day." I feel really good about my weight loss this time. Previous attempts have always ended in me going on a binge of all the foods I had restricted myself from eating. I have never lasted more than a month. I…
