Uncomfortable after weight loss.
I'm hitting that point again that I often hit...where I just start to feel really miserable. Maybe others can related. Not that I expect happiness with getting fit. I was fit for most of my life it did not bring any more happiness than anything else. And heavier I feel happy most of the time too. But yes these last few…

Lifting in a fasted state
I'm looking to see if anyone does this and what their experience has been. I'm currently cutting and having a difficult time with hunger in the evening. To allocate more calories later in the day, I'm considering not eating breakfast nor my usual mid-morning snack. I lift four days a week and on two of those days I start…

my search continues: The best kind of fitness watch
It's there a fitness watch that will record runs and tell you your MPH and stuff like the runtastic app does with a phone? I don't want to carry my phone with me, but I like knowing my speed, distance, and using the GPS. I want that in watch form, but I'm not looking to buy the new iWatch for $250. Are there other things…

What do people think about..?
So recently I've decided to get more serious about weight loss. I've lost 30 pounds but recently put more back on and I'm kinda tired of the fluctuating.

Question for Meal Preppers
I find meal preppers facinating. I do well to make my breakfast and lunch the night before. I really would like to start doing it for several days in advance. I am just curious if preppers ever eat frozen meals and/or sandwiches in addition to their own meals. I love seeing the pictures that many of you post with the neat…

Weight loss tips, Am I doing it all wrong?
i have been on a good portioned eating plan for two plus weeks, and going to the gym a minimum of three days a week. I'm tracking on MFP daily but I'm not getting anywhere.

Stitches in the gym
I know that stitches (that sharp pain in your side you can get when exercising) are caused by a build up of lactic acid which is produced when your body is undergoing anaerobic respiration, which it does when your body doesn't have enough oxygen to get the energy it needs to the muscles which need it. What I want to know…
