How to keep snakes away from you while hiking?


Posted Sunday December 15 2013, 11:51 pm

I love hiking, but I am terrified of snakes, and my friend knows this... so she was telling me that if i wrap myself in some sort of insulation when i'm outside hiking that the snakes will stay away from me. She had no reason behind this.. so I don't believe her, lol. Is this true?

Hips and upper body is getting wider?


Posted Wednesday December 4 2013, 12:21 am

20/f

I noticed that ever since I've been on birth control, my hips have gotten wider. I know because I have to go a size up in pants and I have always been slender. Recently, I started noticing that my upper body is getting bigger. I do not mean my breasts, I am not sure if my breasts are getting bigger but I have been noticing that I am starting to no longer fit in my regular size tops and I would need to go a size up.

I recently contacted my doctor and they said widening hips are not due to the birth control pills. I was thinking that maybe I was eating too much but I have always had a fast metabolism. But my doctor also said that the birth control that I am taking does not slow down my metabolism either. ...

Confused jeans


Posted Monday November 18 2013, 10:39 pm

22/f

Okay,so I've been working out rigorously for the past year. I have lost around maybe 25-30 pounds. I originally was a size 3 but then went on antidepressants last year and blew up to a size 12. I am back to my original size 3 jeans...sort of. I kept my old jeans because I wanted to get back into them and for some reason, half of my size 3 jeans fit again but then the other half I can get up to my waist but I can't button them. I noticed I gained muscle in my legs so I thought that might be the reason. Does that make sense? What could be the cause?

Thanks!

What could be the possible cause of my delayed period?


Posted Tuesday October 29 2013, 2:04 am

Last September, I had sex with my boyfriend. It was unprotected but using the calendar method, it was on the safe day. After that my period was very light and lasted for 3 days, but that happened twice in september. This month, October, I missed my period but I'm experiencing cramps. Got no signs of pregnancy and took 3 pregnancy tests, all negative. What could this possibly be?

weight problems


Posted Sunday October 27 2013, 12:07 am

I am 13 and about 5 feet tall. I weigh 100 lbs. Now, before you say that is super skinny, and blah blah, let me tell you some things.
I am an A34 chest size and my stomach sticks out much farther than my breats.
My stomach almost hangs over my pants.
This is one reason I cut myself. (I have been for a year)

Beginner weightlifting tips needed!


Posted Tuesday October 22 2013, 8:16 pm

Hi all,

I've been working out consistently for a month now and would now like to incorporate more weight lifting into my routine, rather than just cardio.

As a beginner, I feel that using the weight machines would be a better start in terms of doing the right movement and so on. A more controlled situation, should I say.
However, I'm not really sure what my "plan" should be or how to make one.
My gym does offer fitness consultants but they are very pricy and I can't afford to make a fitness plan with one right now.

So I was wondering if anyone with weight lifting experience would be kind enough to tell me the kind of sets/reps I should have and what order I might want to d...

Looking for friends/motivation on MyFitnessPal


Posted Monday October 14 2013, 6:02 am

I've been using the MFP app for about a month now and it is really helping me with my diet. However, none of my close friends use the app and it looks a bit bare sometimes.

I was wondering if there are Advicenators here who use the app and would like a (somewhat) anonymous friend on their feed. I'm eating clean these days and working out!

Let me know :)

I can't lose weight or size... Argh! Nutrition issue possibly?


Posted Saturday September 14 2013, 4:35 pm

Hey everyone!
26/f. 5'3", about 130 give or take a couple pounds. History of anorexia ending something like 5-6 years ago, slight body dysmorphia still on bad days.

Background: I gained weight recently because of a steroid medication I was on for crohn's disease. To combat this known weight-gain issue while I was on it, I immediately switched to a clean eating/daily workout lifestyle. I'm thankfully off the medication, but kept the lifestyle...and the 15 pounds I gained.
That said, I don't expect to ever reach 115 again like I'd love to, because I have a pretty decent amount of lean muscle mass in my lower body. I run barefoot-shoe, so my legs are ALL muscle. I also do primarily body-resistance "lifti...

Kyphosis and Scoliosis


Posted Sunday July 28 2013, 8:24 am

Hello everyone female, 20 years old.

I would say about 10-11 years ago I was diagnosed with kyphosis and scoliosis. The scoliosis was minor but the kyphosis was the major issue they were concerened with. I went to physical therapy for a year after which didn't do much. I haven't seen a doctor since.

I deal with pain or soreness every day in my back. I pretty much look just like I have horrible posture, besides that my ribs are uneven and I constantly lean on one side. I work in an office where I must be on a computer all day. I've been dealing with rude people all my life telling me to sit up straight and that I'll be a hunchback when I'm older. My husband has never mentioned it but I feel like he just knows I'...
