  • omg @kirstie155 I feel like I helped you jump off the obsessive cliff here....sorry haha! I feel like @VeryKatie said, once you start trying and it happens you'll be happy no matter what the due date ends up being. However, it is nice to think we can plan these things :) After I wrote the thing about summer birthdays, I…
  • oh @kirstie155 that made me lol! Totally understand that you don't want to do anything that will make you too obsessive...yet :) I haven't checked what the actual due date would be, but I have thought about the month. My bday is in August & my husband's is June and I've thought that I would not want my baby born in those…
  • Congrats @katycapp!! A little random question - but I think I read in here a while back a discussion on ovulation strips. Can any one recommend a brand/set that you've used and liked? I currently chart my temperature every day, but I want to check with some strips to make sure I've got it down....currently for…
  • haha @verykatie after they left I asked my husband, "Does she think that I don't cook?" because its just strange to me to show up at someone's house with that much food! But, he says, no thats just how she is. I've gotten more used to eating at her house...you have to say yes to something or else she won't stop asking you…
  • Forewarning, this is totally a first world problem but I just need to vent for a minute! We invited my sister-in-law & her BF over for dinner yesterday. I decided to make it my "cheat" day for the week. I made a pretty healthy dinner (stuffed pork chops & salad) but indulged in cheese & crackers and dessert as well as a…
  • @VeryKatie those are all cute! I really like the drinking buddies onesie. You could always get your husband a gift that coordinates with a onesie. I just had a friend announce their pregnancy on facebook (they are big beer drinkers) with an engraved growler that said "baby smith aug 2017" and a little onesie that says…
  • Starting Weight 1/27 - 169.5 2/3 - 168.5 (-1) 2/10 - 167.5 (-1) 2/17 - 167 (-0.5) Feb end goal - 165.4 I was happy to see a loss this morning, I was not expecting that! I don't think I'll hit my goal weight for the month, but I'm still going in the right direction! My hip feels pretty much back to normal so I will try to…
  • Jan beginning: 176.5 1/27 - 169.5 2/3 - 168.5 (-1 lb) 2/10 - 167.5 (-1 lb) 2/17 - 167 (-0.5 lb) Total Feb Loss - 2.5 lbs Feb goal: 164.5 I was so happy to see a loss today! After indulging over the weekend and for Valentine's Day I thought I had no chance of a loss!
  • I think you probably just need to level set your expectations. It sounds like you are in a very different situation than you were 4 years ago and you will probably need to develop different ways to meet your goals that fit into your current life. There is nothing wrong with "convenience" foods as long as you make it fit…
  • I am not looking forward to weighing in this week, I indulged over the weekend and then went a little crazy yesterday as well. Oye, thats okay just more motivation to do better for the rest of February...I'm so close to being down 10 pounds, gotta keep going! I hope everyone had a nice Valentines Day :)
  • @krizaten33 wow I hope you feel better! take care of yourself and you'll get back on track once you are feeling better...health first! @WifiresGettingFit my hip is feeling better, thank you! It's still a little sore, but much better than last week. I think I'll give it a few more days until it feels back to normal and then…
  • Kirstie I'm so sorry that your injury was so bad! I will take your advice and lay off of the squats. My whole body felt kindof out of whack over the weekend and then I did an hour long Zumba on Sunday, so I think I just tweaked something. Sitting all day at work and on the train doesn't seem to be helping...so lots of…
  • Another pound down this week: Starting Weight 1/27 - 169.5 2/3 - 168.5 2/10 - 167.5 Feb end goal - 165.4 I've missed my squats the last 2 days...my right hip/leg muscles are really tight and uncomfortable. I feel out of alignment :( I'm hoping to get a massage this weekend and keep stretching to hopefully feel back to…

  • @motivatedsister So sorry for your loss. Sending lots of happy thoughts your way. I agree with the others that a little vacay and time to relax will probably do you some good. <3 @WifiresGettingFit I love that your ring is unique! Good luck with planning...we did Vegas and it was the best thing for us because I didn't want…
  • good luck @katycapp !! @Kirstie155 hope you feel better, I know my period symptoms shocked me the first few months after going off the pill. And oh I just realized I forgot to do my squats yesterday...I'll have to double up tonight.
  • @Kirstie155 that sounds absolutely perfect for him!! so cute.
  • I'm at 1370 daily target right now, and don't do a ton of exercise. Breakfast: typically greek yogurt (Right now I like the Fage 2% wtih fruit, has about 12 g of protein!) + coffee Lunch: usually prep a meal on the weekend and portion it out for lunches...I use skinnytaste.com meals a lot, this week is just some marinated…
  • Congrats @WifiresGettingFit :)
  • @Kirstie155 I'd say that is great for going to a steakhouse & enjoying the superbowl! You'll be at your Feb goal in no time! I've enjoyed the squats, ready for day 6 today. It has made me realize how tight my leg & hip muscles are though, so I've been trying to stretch more and use my foam roller. @krizaten33 Hope your…
  • My husband always jokes how he can't wait to fool our future children into believing ridiculous things (he has been trying for years to convince his niece that Jurassic Park is based on a true story). So I think I will end up buying a silly book like this one:…
