in Introduce Yourself
I'm Jennifer. I really need to lose about 30 pounds to be where I'd like to be. :) I love that once you put meals in MFP it'll tell you how much you'll weigh in so many weeks. That's awesome! :) I'm a wife to a great husband & a mom to 5 kids. I need to lose weight so to be more healthy & have more energy to keep up with my family's busy life!

    Cut out any white rice, white bread or white flour. Soda is a definite cutout, that would do half of the job.

    Also make sure you eat lots of fruit, vegetables and whole grains.

    I workout 7 days a week, I would recommend working out everyday, but being a mom of 5, 4 or 5 days a week would work.

    The trick also is eating healthy snacks in between meals, like whole grain crackers, peanut butter, string cheese, low fat yogurt, fruit of course, healthy cereal w/skim milk, fat free pudding graham crackers, etc.

    Eating whole grain bread is the best, brown rice and black beans are good for you and high in fiber.

    Good Luck!!!

    Thanks @mommabiggirl! Sorry, I know this is only a couple months past your original comment. ugh. Thank you for the info. I've been really watching what I eat as of this last Sunday. Going through a Bible study online that's really helping me in my health. :)
