Running
Posted Monday May 18 2009, 11:58 am
I recently started running and today was my second day to do it. I never was a big runner, but I noticed that I can hardly run at all (actually, I spend most of the time fast-walking) because I get out of breath so quickly and my chest hurts so bad I can't inhale fully and there's really hard pressure on my lungs.
Am I just way out of shape or is there something else wrong? Will this get better the more I exercise?
Thanks!

i can't seem to lose weight.
Posted Sunday May 17 2009, 3:58 pm
hello, i'm 19/f and i weight about 145. my friend is also 19/f and she is about the same height as me (5'6") and weighs around 108. i've been exercising everyday for two hours and even been taking ephedrine pills and i have not lost weight at all. i've also been doing crunches and i've seen no results. however, my friend has been also working out less than i have and she's already got a 4 pack! (it's only been a few weeks). i'm just wondering why i can't seem to lose weight and it's so easy for her to get a 4 pack so soon. thanks in advance.

Training for things
Posted Friday May 15 2009, 12:27 pm
I want to do something that you have to train for. I'm just not sure what. I have plenty of time to do it. I'm a 15y/o girl just so you know. I'm homeschooled, so that's what I mean by I have plenty of time. I have a very flexible schedule. Anyway i'm just not sure what to do. Any ideas?
Any answers are greatly appreciated, take care.

How to lose about 60 pounds by September (5 months)?
Posted Thursday May 14 2009, 9:46 pm
I'm a 15 year old girl, 5'5" and about 165 pounds. I have muscle too but there's also fat like in the rest of my body I want to get rid of. I've just been gaining wait.. since last year I've been like "Okay, I'm going to stop binge eating and start running for 1 hour everyday" but then I end up binge eating and then hoping to go running soon.. making excuses and stuff. Its so annoying. I really want to be around 110 pounds, though, and don't need comments on if you don't think its a good weight or whatever, I just want to know how.
I dont want to go anorexic/bulemic cause it sounds gross and its unhealthy. I dont know how to eat better as like I eat what my parents make. We rarely ever eat out but from now on I...

1500 calories a day
Posted Thursday May 14 2009, 7:01 pm
(please no lectures about what foods in this list you think i should or shouldn't be eating, i'm going to eat what i like, i just want to do it in the right moderation for a maintainable weight).
If I stay at or below 1500 calories a day and I work out for about 10-20 min a day 4-5 days a week (doing things like aerobics, belly dancing, yoga, running) will i lose a natural flow of weight?
(to give you an idea of what i will eat...i have some health shakes (160 calories per serving) that are like ensure where you can drink them when you are busy or to replace a meal but they have a meal supply of nutrients- 2 of those, a grilled chicken sandwich with no sauce at 400 calories, 2 ice cream sandwich bars that are...

Keeping my arms toned?
Posted Sunday May 10 2009, 3:59 am
16/F.
I play tennis and squash once a week, so both of these keep my legs in an okay shape, and they make my arms stronger, but not so toned.
If I lift weights once a day for a certain amount of time, would this lose some fat on my arms and keep them toned?
If so, how long should I do it for, and I have 1kg weights and I think something between 3 and 5kgs, which one should I use?
Thanks :)

Shoulders
Posted Saturday May 9 2009, 5:01 am
I'm not sure where to put this exactly so I'm sorry if this isn't the right category.
I have really broad shoulders for a girl and it's one of the things I've always been self-conscious about. I always wear shirts with sleeves on them because I feel really uncomfortable showing my upper arms which are kinda flabby and my broad shoulders. I was just wondering if there was any way for me to make them a bit.. smaller I guess, not so manly. Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

26 pounds in a month
Posted Friday May 8 2009, 3:35 pm
I'm attempting to lose some weight before the summer starts so that i don't have to lose as much during the summer. Is 26 pounds a reasonable amount to want to lose in one or two months? If not, what's a reasonable amount? Also, what are some good ways to try and lose the weight? I'm not in any sports and my life is pretty sedentary so i need some help with this. Thanks in advance!

thick ankles?
Posted Thursday May 7 2009, 4:14 pm
hi, i'm a 19 yr. old female and i have a bit of a problem. i have these thick ankles that i'm self concious about. they're definitely not cankles because my ankles are still skinnier than my calves, but lets say my ankles are just a little thicker than most which i think is unusual. anyways, are there any exercises i could do to make them skinnier? my mom also has similiar ankles to mine but hers are a little more thicker if that helps with genetics or something. thank you for the advice in advance.

i think i have an eating disorder?
Posted Wednesday May 6 2009, 2:49 pm
so im a 19 year old girl. i weigh about 110 lbs at the least. im not exactly sure cause i haven't weighed myself in a while. well, last year sometime early august, i made myself throw up after eating too much at a birthday party. i told myself i was going to lose weight no matter what it would take. so for two or three weeks, i exercised day-in-day out and either i wouldn't eat, or if i did it was something like oatmeal or cereal that i would later throwup. (calories began to scare me) i weighed 115 lbs then, and hiding this was easy at this point because my family was doing horrible moneywise. i had just graduated and i couldn't find a job so i would basically stay home all day alone. i'll admit i was a little depressed with all this inclu...
