My name is colleen and I got the info for this site from a co-worker and friend. A bunch of girls at work are all trying to support each other in our weight loss goals. I have two little girls and have been trying to take off all the baby weight for quite some time now. I have lost about 12lbs. since January, but I have been stuck at my current weight for a while. I am looking for any advice someone would like to share.

    are you excercising? I rotate cardio and weights and that seems to really help me.....of course I try to keep my portions under control and eat healthier......could be you just need to change your usual routine up....:flowerforyou:

    I've heard that increasing your water intake will help you start loosing again. Give it a try, water is good for you!!:drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

    I would agree with the girls here in the thread-your output of energy must always exceed your intake of calories. for instance, i went on a four mile hike. that alone only burned about 800 calories. you figure you can get that caloric intake quite easily if you don't watch your portions. However,good luck to you-If we can all do this, then so can you! Go Weaverc :)):drinker: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :drinker:

    oh and drink water!!! its great for you!! and it fills u up. I find that when I get hungry late at night and I just have to have something-I drink water first-most of the time, I'm just thristy. and if I must have something-i make it something very healthy like an apple or an orange. :)
