After being on the elliptical machine 3 times my knees were swollen (fluid around them). It feels like some one is taking a needle and poking me in the knee. I think this may be tendinitis. Can anyone tell me what it might be, and if it can be cured with medical treatment? Thanks

Honestly, I think what it boils down to is that I don't have the will power to give up certain foods for an extended period of time. When I clean up my diet, like cutting carbs, I crave them so bad and over do it. I have always binged on what I wanted for a couple of days and then almost ate...

I havn't completely given up. I am just frustrated because if I consume 1400 calories I will be hungry. If I eat meat all day it will make me sick (atkins diet type thing) What needs to happen is this: I have to quit over eating. I have been trying to do this my whole life. I will go on binges...

Ok friends, thank you so much for all of your input (I appreciate it). I am going to try this on my own until I find out what works for me. Nothing has seemed to work so far. I have worked out 3 times this week and my knees are swollen so bad I can barely walk today. I'm out of here for...

I don't think I can eat all of that meat in one day eh. Maybe, 1/2 of it. I am about ready to give up on this whole diet thing. Take care friends

Can anyone give me a good web site on "anabolic diet" that gives some suggestions on a meal plan, and a short description on how to get started. I don't want to buy the book if I don't have to. Thanks

I don't think I can give up carbs for-ever. I tried the atkins diet twice and the first time I threw up at the end of the day. The second time, I felt so sick to my stomach toward the latter part of the day. A lot of protien with carbs causes bad indegestion as it is. I can give it a try...

Hi Alex, I am the cherios person lol. I quit doing that because it wasn't working. I switched to eating nothing in the morning (because I'm not hungry until lunch). I eat a salad with tuna on it and about 2 tablespoons of light ranch dressing, or I eat a peanut-butter sandwich. At dinner...

I finally got enough money to join the gym and yesterday I got on the eucalyptus machine. I was able to stay on it for 10 minutes, then took a 2-3 minute break and got back on for 7 minutes, took a 2-3 minute break and was on it for 5 more minutes. I was about to die. I drank a shake...

This is what I do. I mix the oatmeal with hot water, but not to hot. Stir it up like the protien powder mixes, and then down it as if I were drinking a shake. You only taste it a couple of times depending how many gulps it takes to get it all down.

Hmm, Anyone?

First, I quit taking Welbutrin because it is no longer benefititing me, I was wondering if anyone can reccomend an anti depressent that does not cause weight gain or anxiety. Also, I take Ambien. It is the only sleeping pill that works for me. The side effect is this: After I take it I have...

I was told to keep dairy out of my diet? One thing I noticed about protein is that it has a lot of cholesterol. I had high colesterol and had to clean up my diet along time ago. I don't want to start consuming a lot of protein and get high colesterol again. Any positive comments on protein...

What is an EFA? Also, I havn't lost any weight even consuming less than 1200 calories a day. My body is messed up, my metabolism has slowed way down. I will add more protien to my diet and see what happens Thanks Hey, do you know that guy that is breathing the fire? Scarry.......
