flourish-md asked: Hello! :) This may be a silly question, but is it bad to work out a stiff group of muscles? And also, I think all the leg exercises I know work the quadriceps; could you tell me something that works the calves too? (Sorry if my English is kind of messy, it's not my first language.)
And thank you again, you're doing a great job with this blog. Keep it up! :D

inspiredxloser asked: I started at 289lbs and I'm 5'3". It is super hard at first, but it's true when they say it's mostly diet. I have added cardio, but I know that overhauling my diet has been the key so far. Also I'd recommend that person follow your blog closely and look for other healthy weight loss blogs .. they've been a big help for me.

Anonymous asked: Hi I really love this blog a lot :)
I wish I was healthy. :(
I'm so ashamed of this, but I'm a 5'3ish 280 pound female and I want to be healthy. I know being healthy is what's important, but I just want the weight to come off, since I really don't look like 280 at all. I'm just sick of being so big and I want to be healthy.
Where should I start?...

Your blog is rad, I'm planning on getting a bit fitter this summer, so I'm gonna use one of your training programs. I even printed it and made ugly doodles next to the name of the exercises.

ilikeowlsandpandas-deactivated2 asked: Hey there!
I have a couple of questions:
1. I don't exercise very often, and when I do (I normally do 50 jumping-jacks, 30 crunches, 30 squats and 30 leg-lifts on each leg), I feel very shaky when I'm done, like I'm about to fall, and when I get up in the morning, I get sore muscles. But, when I walk on the treadmill for 30 or 40 minutes, I feel really good. So why...

Anonymous asked: Is it TERRIBLE to eat before you go to sleep? I know it's not the best thing. But, I usually get VERY hungry before bed, which makes it hard for me to fall asleep. Is it bad to have a piece of fruit or something else that's healthy?

Anonymous asked: in response to what you just told that anon...I'm pretty positive that if you burn more calories than you eat in a day, your body will go into starvation mode. you'd need to have a net calorie intake of AT LEAST 1200 calories to not go into starvation mode. That means that after accounting for the food you eat and the exercise you do in a day, you should have at least 1200 calories...
