Navy Blue Sports Bra?
So I joined my track team and for meets I need a navy blue sports bra. I can't seem to find any for women with larger chests that are still affordable for a college student budget...

NROLFW.... *gulp*
So I'm reading the New Rules of Lifting for Women and am excited to start it, but I'm also extremely extremely nervous. I frequent the gym but I usually use the cardio machines (treadmill, elliptical, bike) and the weight machines. Never have I ventured into the free weights. It's really intimidating to me, and I am…

Should I count each half as a piece, or put two together to make a full peanut and count that as a piece? I know it's kind-of a stupid question, but it's really…

Pulled Chest Muscle and Running?
Okay, first of all I think it's a little ridiculous that I run just about every day, do Pilates, yoga, archery and any other physical activity that comes my way and am fine. I have ONE little coughing fit last night and wake up this morning to find that I strained a muscle in my chest. From coughing. Anyway, I was…

Friends? Enemies? Frenemies?
Started using MFP.... but don't have enough friends on here! I'm almost 20 and weigh 135. I'm not looking to lose a lot, just 15lbs or so, mainly to tone up and slim down! Hoping to make friends with similar goals, or with a similar lifestyle! I'm a college student, and I work on campus in an office so I sit on my butt all…
