Women who bulk...
Hey, I'm doing a bulk at the moment and would love to have other bulkers as my MFP friends! I sometimes find it hard to bulk and would love some motivation... Women or men... I currently lift 3-4x a week and am aiming for 2,300 calories a day. Feel free to add me!

First trimester exhaustion...
Woah, am I being lazy or is that normal? Ever since week 4 I've been exhausted! I'm now only 5 weeks pregnant and I function OK from 7 am to about 2-3pm, but after that I just feel so tired :( I can't seem to work out... All I wanna do is stay at home and sleep or rest/watch TV. I have no energy! It feels very foreign to…
