Dear Self...
Dear Self, As much as sugar tastes good, it doesn't feel good. How about this week we stick to less sugar and less sodium? I know our feet are still on the mend, but our arms, back, abdomens, and chest are not. So let's get on losing some weight off the back and arms for the time being. Okay? Remember, if it looks too hard…

Revival
Talk about a while. Tabi went on a vacation and I hit a couple life hiccups and, in the process, Motivators and Motivation fell to dust. .Well, it is time to rebirth, start anew, and bring the heat back to our goals! .

What are some habits you're trying to make/break?
I've had some habits I've been working to break and some ones I'm trying to implement into my life, though I find myself curious and open minded to know what others are trying to do with their own. In my whole fitness pursuit, I'm trying to take better care of myself. I did a major turn on not just brushing my teeth, but…

Weigh In Challenges!
One of my strongest motivations is that I am pretty public about my eating plan and my exercise routines. I used to be so shy about the number that I weighed, but when it all comes down to it, I finally realized that number isn't what really matters. It is only a measurement. One form of measurement. Only. One. Type. Here…

Struggles & Triumphs
We all have stories of our ups and downs. Sometimes, just knowing that someone else got back up on their feet after a tragedy helps us to do the same. If you have a story you wish to share, please do! It doesn't absolutely have to do with fitness--it can be about losing a loved one, losing a home, or losing a job. Most of…

Resting Metabolism Rate
I have been seeing a lot of new friends having issues figuring out why they are so hungry and get the munchies late at night. Some of them wonder if they aren't eating enough, and others aren't sure if they just need to save up calories for the end of their day. Well, to address how many calories you should be…

Group Goal
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust Every time we crash, we pick ourselves up. We all make mistakes and fall to temptation. We learn and use the lesson as motivation. Strength isn't just the physical. It's the character. It's the mentality. It's a choice. We seek to make a change in our lives; not because society doesn't accept…

Hiyaz!
Alright. Unlike most of the posts here, I'm not new to MFP. I've been here for several years, the last couple of which I have been the most productive in becoming healthier. I'm still working to get the remaining 45.8 extra pounds off, but sometimes it feels like it's an endless uphill battle. Anyway! I don't believe I…
