    Let's start with seeing how we did with May goals & making some June goals! I did great with my May goals but I'll admit that I aimed pretty low.

    My June goals: Lose 6 pounds, Stay on track with C25K, Ab workouts at least 5 nights/week, Limit soda (I've been SO bad with soda & I never used to drink it before my pregnancy!)

    Awesome! I did pretty well with my May goals. My next weiLgh in is tomorrow, so I will know then how much I lost total, but it is looking pretty good =)

    My goals for June are:
    Finish JM's 30
    Start JM's yoga meltdown and Ripped in 30
    Loose at least 5lbs
    Work on increasing my running time during walk/run intervals

    Good luck ladies :)

    Ok May goals

    Lose 8 lbs and reach 222 { got down to 220.8 so check!}
    eat 1 fruit or veggie with each meal {didn't quite make it}
    exericise 30 minutes every day {partial check, I only missed a few days here and there}

    June goals

    Lose 8 lbs and reach 212.8
    Still aiming for fruits and veggies but will say 3 a day regardless of whether its part of a meal or as a snack
    exercise 30 minutes 6 days a week, my 7th day is usually nothing but housework and laundry which although it burns I do not count it. I want to finish up c25k, I started week 2 yesterday and hopefully once it's done I'll be ready to start 30ds aiming for a August 1st start date

    Well I had to do somthing that would restric me from haivng the option of eating the foods im addicted to. Like sugar, and bread, and baked goods, and I like that I can stay full all the time and still have things that are sweet like friut. I do eat baked chicken at night through just because I love it, and its filling. All im drinking is water and from what iv read this diet is almost as good and doing a mster cleanse, just the healthy way so I can still nurse.

    Hey guys - I have crossed over :laugh:. Not exercising yet but watching what I eat (somewhat...) Hoping that BFing works in my favor until I can hit the gym again - which might be a couple months, especially depending on Gabriel's condition and surgery schedule.

    I was up 30 lbs at my highest preg weight and a week post I am down 15. I have 15 more to go then another 10 after that to be where I want to be. I'd love to get down an additional 10, but that would put me at 135 and I think that's a little unrealistic. I'd be thrilled to hit 145 again. I was just dropping below 155 before getting preg.

    PS, they said they are going to send him home end of this week to grow for a couple months before attempting surgery. I'm glad he'll get to be a little bigger before undergoing something as major as open heart surgery, but I'm going to be paranoid having him out of the safety of the hospital in the mean time!

    PPS - I'd due today! :laugh: :laugh:

    My weight is not budging...been stuck for the last couple weeks at this weight. A little worried since I have a wedding to be in, in 2 weeks!

    I gained a lot with pregnancy 55lbs. I have about 25 to go to get to my ideal goal weight...back when I got married.

    Trying 2 protein shakes a day...hopefully this will kick start it again

    I actually walked a mile yesterday! Yay "exercise". We went to the park but it had just rained so all we could do is walk the path vs letting the boy climb on the playground.

    Are you nursing baby? Do you include those calories in your food log?
