    Well- I use to baby bowl. and don't drink sodas or juice unless my blood sugar goes low ( I am diabetic). I am really good about my portion sizes and what I drink.

    Using a baby bowl isn't accurate for serving sizes, unfortunately.

    I often use my 6 year old's toddler plates and bowls... I can fit a heck of alot on those suckers.


    lol..
    your profile picture is so cute :) How old is she now?
    I have a 17 1/2 month old.
    OP, no you need to weigh you food . You will for sure lose weight .

    I will try that- however, I am always a bit confused wen it comes to low calorie and low carb. What are the difference? What are the purpose for those? The thing is that I am gluten intolerant and get extremely bloated wen I eat something with wheat so I tend to watch out on that as well

    Don't worry about carbs. Only worry about calories, and meet your protein...(and other macros) for health/satiety purposes. I ignore carbs, fat, and sugars...I've lost nearly 45 lbs since the end of Jan. of this year.

    You need to help me!!!

    I weigh my food. I stick to around 1350-1450 calories per day. I exercised so I could eat more or to "recoup" from a day of eating too much. I did pay attention to getting enough protein, fat, fiber, iron, and calcium.

    I haven't been logging much this past month as I'm recovering from being sick...haven't exercised either. Haven't had much appetite so that's why I lost weight this month...but really...the other 39 lbs came off just from watching my calories and being sure I weighed my food and had accurate nutrition info.

    I did miss that you are diabetic so you may have to pay more strict attention to carb and sugar intake than I do.
