Mom of a busy 19 month old here! I am hoping to lose 50-80lbs (not all of it baby weight unfortunately) so that I'll be fit and ready to try for baby #2 :blush:

Hi everyone! I'm a first time mom and I BF. My little guy is 8 months now and gearing up to start walking so it's definitely time to lose the extra weight so I can keep up with him. I've dealt with low supply issues a few months ago but that was more linked to stress from working than diet so I'm not too worried about…

That's actually a great idea, not silly at all! Seeing a high number is very stressful for me which is why I wanted to monitor my progress by measurements but it seems that the overwhelming response is to get out of that mindset. Thank you for the suggestion!

I do log everything that I eat. I'm not a grazer so I don't eat snacks often; I much prefer to have the three solid meals in a day over four or five smaller ones, maybe it's a "quantity makes me feel full" thing, I don't know. If I grazed I know my eating would be out of control.

I understand where this is coming from but if I tell my mother that I can't have a meal she made especially for me during a visit I'd never hear the end of it lol. Not everyone seems to think I need to watch what I eat, unfortunately.

When it comes to weekends it's not that I'm guessing what I'm eating, just that I don't have access to a scale. So when I'm visiting my parents I'll ask for the recipe of what was made and go from those measurements. I know it's not perfect but it's the best I can do. I still watch what I eat (last weekend was bad because…

Thanks for the scale tips, I'll have to use it more often than relying on my spoon sets! I'm getting up the gall to go pick up a scale tomorrow and I promise I'll actually use it :smile:

I try to be as accurate as possible with what I pick out to log. If the specific brand of what I'm using isn't listed I'l scan the ones that are for the closest nutritional match. When I eat out and the item isn't listed in the database I'll go on the restaurants' website and find the nutritional info there and make a…

I do use a scale for everything when I'm at home through the week. Weekends away are more of a ball-park guess. My only change in measurement is that I went up .5" in my hip measurement. Everything else has remained constant.
