Dizzy and headache
Is it normal to feel a little dizzy and have a light headache after circuit training or cardio? It doesn't happen if I walk, but it does if I do any cardio workout, circuit training, and sometimes when I ride the stationary bike. I have a good diet (putting in the good stuff), and I drink between 64 to 96 ounces of water…

Knee pain
Hi all. I am hoping some of you can help or give me a little advice, anyway. I am 5' 3" and 182 pounds. When I started this insanely difficult journey, I was 232 pounds. That was 3 1/2 years ago (I've had quite an on-again-off-again relationship with my weight loss). I was doing amazingly from January of this year until…

Anyone struggling since childhood?
Hi! I'm hopefully back in the saddle for good this time. I committed in January of 2012 and followed through longer than ever before, but after losing my Grandpa in the summer, I slowly went back to bad habits. I've been eating away my pain again. I have gained back 10 of those nasty pounds. I would like to connect with a…

Here we go again~
I am a 32 year old mother of 4, married to a wonderful man, but very unhappy with myself. I am going on a weight loss/life style change again. Hopefully for good this time. I am setting my mind on a year. I hope to have shed at least 60 lbs in a year.
