Breastfeeding moms
I have noticed a lot of questions on how many calories for breastfeeding moms. Each woman is different. You should consult your OBGYN for that type of information. I didn't have to eat as much for one as I did for the other. It really depends on you. How much milk you produce. Make sure that you do not deprive yourself of…

Three handsome male dogs are walking down the street when they see a beautiful, enticing, female Poodle. The three male dogs fall all over themselves in an effort to be the one to reach her first, but end up arriving in front of her at the same time. The males are speechless before her beauty, slobbering on themselves and…

MFP Advertising
I don't know if the advertising on MFP is the same for everyone, but when I read the forums there's a banner at the top of the page that says: "Hey Fatty! You Need To Lose Some Damn Weight" I thought this was funny but I don't know if others find it offensive? Do you?

Dieting makes me moody...can anyone relate?
Hello, I am new to the message boards, this is my first post. I was just kindof wondering if anyone else gets really angry when they start cutting back on the foods they eat. I feel like I am going crazy and am terribly moody to the point where I actually feel sorry for my husband and aside from maybe PMSing a little I can…

It took 7 months....
but I really have changed how I eat. Today I was really hungry and it was a choice of a wall of chocolate staring me in the face or a can of almonds tucked away near the chocolate and the almonds WON! I really feel great that it didn't bother me in the least to walk by all the chocolate. I didn't think that was ever going…

Slim quick
Powder packs, you know the ones that you would put in a bottle of water. When I drink one OMG it's like the drink is eating away at my body, it's not a bad feeling I like it makes me feel reassured lol...

The weekends with family
Food is so abundant on the weekends, especially with big families like ours. I have tried to keep our limits under but I know it's next to impossible. We try to eat before we go over to their houses and politely say, "no thank!"! But still the extras come out. We have been encouraging all of them to eat healthier also but…

You know you're on a diet when....
You rank food by the number of "bites" : donut = 4 bites = bad; gelatto = 20 bites = good. Your making something as low-cal as shirataki noodles, and you pull every single noodle off the paper towel. You stop working out when you've reached a set number of calories. I've gone so far as to stop the treadmill when it matches…

Not going to make the calories today
I just got what everyone else apparently had. I spent all of last night... paying homage to the porcelin king... if you will. So not only did I unceremoniously get rid of those calories, but today I just can't get beyond 500. I made a valiant attempt. It's ok though, considering the only exercise I've gotten is moving from…

Grocery Store Madness
Funny thing to whine about, but did anyone notice their grocery bill drastically change (and not for the better) when they started to eat healthier? Mine sure did! Let the cupboards get bare, went grocery shopping this week, and filled the cupboards with completely healthy items, fresh fruit and vegetables. There is a real…

Anyone experiencing hair loss?
My hair seems to be coming out at a pretty rapid rate lately. It started pretty suddenly. I know hair loss can be caused by rapid weight loss but I thought that would be when starving yourself, etc. I have not starved at all and eat healthy foods. I HAVE lost 68 lbs since September though. Do you think it is the culprit,…
