I'm ready again!!!
After a two year break from MFP and making an effort to be healthy, I'm ready to get back to this! Stand up, hold my head high and brush off the dust. I always found being on MFP helped keep me accountable and the encouragement from everyone helped keep me pushing forward. So, back to this, I have lots to do. First on the…

LBS lost VS Inches lost
After reading lots of posts I'm wondering, for you, is it LBS lost or Inches lost that is most important? When I first joined MFP I was looking for LBS lost. I gave up numerous times and stopped trying to lose anything, except myself along the way. Anyhow, now I'm back and I'm doing it this time! I could honestly care less…

Husband needs to exercise...just a rant.
Ok, I really need to rant to someone and who better than all of you on here?! My husband is 6' 7" and probably a good 50+ lbs over weight. He is constantly injuring himself, complaining about being fat, exhausted, grouchy....need I go on? Every time I hear one of these complaints my response is "I know how to fix that..."…

Exercise and Tremors
For as long as I can remember (at least 15 years) I have had tremors, most prominent in my hands. First of all I'd like to know if there are many others out there that suffer with tremors? Have you had any diagnosis as to why you have the tremor? My doctors (3 of them now) say it's just me, most like high adrenaline and I…

Protein Shake recommendations pls!
I've been wanting to get a protein shake for some time now to have for post work out time. Recommendations please! I'm also really not up for spending a fortune or signing up for any plans. So is it even possible to get one worth my while in this case? If I was to spend a decent amount on one will it last for a while? Give…

Hey Everyone! I'm putting out a KEEP MY *kitten* ON TRACK call! :wink: I've been trying to lose some extra lbs for far too long, but more so than that I just want to be healthy!

Beginner Runner
Okay, I'm fed up with my legs! I ran last week (Tues) 5K in 35 min. It was smooth sailing, my body was loving it, my mind loved it...I couldn't wait to do it again. The next morning, I could barely walk, but it was a good ache. Well it's been a week and I still have the ache in my calves and shins. I realize even though my…

Always so tired!
I am always so tired lately and it's driving me crazy, and certainly not helping with my irritablity levels!! Are there any foods or vitamins that anyone suggests that may help? I picked up a multi-vit today (One-a-day Women's) and B12, I'm hoping that these will help with my moods (feeling quite "off"). Lately I've found…
