Pear-Shaped Woman! I need your support :(
In the past 2 years, I've lost roughly 35 pounds, and the weight loss has ALL been from my upper body. My boobs are gone, my ribs are showing (hate it), I have some muscle definition in the stomach and the only thing that's left is my huge butt! My legs are somewhat alright, I'm not too worried about them anymore. My…

Help with what these exercises are??
I found some exercises online that would help tone my pear shaped body (woohoo) but some of the strength training moves, I've never heard of before but they are mentioned in different articles. If you know what any of them are, please describe it with great detail please! :) -Leg Outs (abs I think) -L-Kicks -V-scissors…

Is too much good fat bad for you?
I've always wondered this. I'm guessing that the extra fat would just be stored in your body, but does it do any other harm besides that? Like to your triglycerides, cholesterol etc?

Opinions on When to Start 30DS?
I've been hearing and seeing great results from people who've completed the 30 day shred. I know I won't see as big of a difference on my body, because I have a BMI of 20.6 and I run 5km/10km, do p90x plyo etc (fyi i'm not bragging, i'm just telling the facts), but not the leanest. My only issue is that I'll be SUPER busy…

Rewarding Yourself
Today, I finally realised WHY I always lapsed back, and went on eating binges for days and gained all the weight back. I never EVER rewarded myself with something. But now since I learned this, does anyone have any suggestions for rewards (excluding food) so I can stay motivated?? I already thought of new clothes (durh<3),…

Is there such a thing as too much fibre?
I've always heard how good fibre was good for your body, but everyday I'm going way overboard with it, according to my food diary. I know you shouldn't go over carbs, sugar, sodium etc, but what about fibre? Is there a limit?

Low-Calorie Diaries?!
I did a peek at some people's food diaries, and I was surprised to see that so many people's are below the 1200 calorie mark. I will be a hypocrite and say that yes, even I have been under that mark sometimes but not consistently. Remember.. this isn't 'My Starvation Pal'. It's 'My Fitness Pal'. When I google 'define:…

Any suggestions to reduce hips?
I've been running for 3 ish years, cross country, and started doing fartleks (sprint 1 min, jog 3 min etc). I do lunges, jump squats, lying hip extensions every other day I don't run 5km. I still have a whopping 38 inch hips, compared to a 27 inch waist. Any other suggestions for trying to reduce my extra cushion? :p My…

For women... running?!?!
I've been an avid runner for about 2 years now. Sometimes I get extremely painful lower, lower abdominal pains. It's not the actual abdominal muscle, it's the area where your ovaries/uterus would be located. Tonight while I was running, I experienced these pains again and it got so painful I actually had to stop. They…
