Best makeup-ish sunblock?
My seat was moved next to a window and I get direct sunlight for a while. It has some film protection so I won't get scorched, but I'm still getting some spots and a really oily face. I'm not changing seats, I finally got a window! (I realize it sounds sad, but it's sadder to face a wall for 8+ hours) This is by far the…

Endometriosis?
I've been recently diagnosed with endometriosis and I'm currently on a medication called Visanne. Besides exercising, I was recommended a "healthy diet"; however I've found many books who mention going vegan or gluten free to ease the pain. Honestly I'm not sure if they are real or they are just jumping on the "clean"…

Annoying coworkers
There's this girl who always wears just too much perfume, you can smell her when she comes into the office, it's even worse when she sits close to you. It smells like grandmothers, candle shops and expired potpourri. Do you have annoying coworkers? Tell me!

What's in Orlando fl besides the parks?
Really. Not trying to offend anyone, but I get to travel for free every 29035047534890 years and I want to do something different. I'm going to be there feb 23-27 and I already visited the parks on previous trips. Not really interested in being on a full tourist mode; so... are there any other cool things to see/do?

Endometriosis/PCOS
This begins like this: At 21 I had a 3 months period, severe dehydration, anemia and I pretty much blacked out from pain, the next month nothing and then again. My OB/GYN denied flatly that I could have cysts since I was "too young"(by that he means, unmarried w/o kids). He gave me birth control pills which gave me severe…

Portions?
I have not had this problem before since I usually weigh in and log full meals Recently I've been in the hospital and had surgery sopretty much everything I am eating is giving me nausea. Until I find my sweet spot for meals, I am having a couple bites out of a plate before feeling sick. Should this be logged in full?…

Why Counting Calories?
I am not trying to stir the water, really. Thing is, I've ran into several websites, ads, messages and people everywhere who are either: - Burning out every nerve at the gym and not eating - Eating so bad and not moving at all they are reaching the point of no return - Doing every single diet they see - Waiting for magical…

Can I do it?
So, this is a poster for a marathon/half marathon/walkathon on october 5th at Guatemala, it is to assist a Down's Sindrome foundation. (the cost to join is about $15 in case you wondered) I am trying to push myself to walk more and I am considering this to be a test to see if I can go through it. Thing is that even with 30…

After party meals.
So, had a party last night, danced my a** off and ate quite well, I don't drink much so I was okay with a couple of shots and I did not bother too much about measuring in everything since I had quite a workout before and after everything (and it's one day). Thing is that I went to bed at midnight (early for party…

Weigh in question
I'm not a big fan of water but I'm doing my best to drink up my required amount. I have discovered water infusions and I love them. Thing is that for accuracy purposes I'm not sure if I should weigh in the fruit going into the infusions? I usually mash them a bit, so I get bits of pulp in it. Not really wanting to use…

Fitting in exercise on a tight schedule
I've been stuck 3 weeks at 257.5, I tried eating more or using cheat meals (to see if it went up), or eating cleaner and the scale won't budge. I have been only dealing with the food part and doing some walking/dancing every now and then. So, that means that actual exercise is needed to aid me. I will break down my routine…

Warm bowl of goodness in a low-cal version?
We have our winter/rainy season in my country, and I find myself craving soups and warm meals. The flu I have only makes the craving bigger. Unfortunately the only soups/stews/one-pot-meals I've found are usually calorie dense. Do you have any tips for low-cal versions of them or any soups/stews/one-pot-meals that are…

Guilty pleasure?
Not only food related! Could be: -Watching a TV show that is really bad -Listening to particular band or genre you'd be embarrassed of listening to it in public -Reading a book you swore you would never get Basically it is something that you shouldn't like, but like anyway. Mine is, when I'm cooking or working I'm…

Crappy sleeping.
My Fitbit Premium sleep page reads the following: You averaged 4hrs 34min of sleep per night this week. A good night's rest is important for your alertness during the day and for keeping you healthy. It is recommended that you get between 7 and 9 hrs of sleep a night. You get 2hrs 25min less than that and your sleep times…
