    • Close Obesity

      I'm 23, 5'7 and approximately 100lbs over my ideal weight. I've always been a big person and I'm wanting to be healthier for me and my family.

      Treatments

      Breast Feeding Working / Worked
      I lost all my baby weight plus some! I gained it all back after I stopped though and the breastfeeding was quite painful.
      Elliptical Trainer Working / Worked
      I haven't tried it regularly, but I could feel the muscles being used and it was low stress on the knees.
      Physical Exercise Working / Worked
      I have tried yoga, tai chi and tae bo. They are all great, it just takes motivation to keep it going. I lost quite a few pounds from taking a yoga and tai chi class together.
    • Close Parenting Big Kids (5-8)

      I have a 6 year old little girl who is extremely hyper and very smart... translating to she's a challenge for most adults to handle. I'm just looking for different ways of helping her cope with real life.

      Treatments

      Education (School) Somewhat Helpful
      Needs an understanding, yet strict teacher.
      Patience Working / Worked
      This is key in helping her. Otherwise she'd be getting in trouble for every little thing.
    • Open Stress Management

      I'm a newly married and working parent and trying to go to school.

      Treatments

      Music Working / Worked
      Music changes my mood, so I listen to what I want to feel.
      Yoga Working / Worked
      It is very relaxing and makes you more aware of your body and what you are feeling.
    • Open Fitness Goals
      Type: Improve overall fitness

      I am really unfit and want to become more active so I'm not too tired to play with my daughter. I just have a major lack of motivation.

      Treatments

      Elliptical Trainer Working / Worked
      It's easy on the knees, but kind of boring.
      Kickboxing Working / Worked
      I feel like a dork doing it, but it's kind of fun.
      Yoga Working / Worked
      Very relaxing and makes you aware of your body.
