I just relapsed into my old ways as well! I know this post is old, but I figured id write here instead of writing the sane thing in a new one lol

I sort of trailed off from the question in your post, lol Pinterest of course is helpful. Planning meals with similar ingredients, Making things I can freeze in containers in portion sizes that I can take to work and heat up.

I know how important meal planning is, and on the the rare occasion I follow through with it, it is well worth it! Picking one day a week to prepare meals is the best way for me to keep on track. Even just having healthy snacks prepared- hummus, cut up veggies, batch of 'energy balls',

I do drink a lot of water. And I'm sure that helps. I prob need to just chill out and be patient with my weightloss! Lol I think I just need to tweak my calories to 2200 instead of 2000 or so. 2000 is working great for weightloss but I notice my milk supply going down after consistently staying at that limit for more than…

I agree with you guys and I'm totally guilty of disappearing! Life's taken over lately and my infant has wore me out the past couple of weeks.

Well I did it! I forget how good I feel working out. I remember that feeling of 'having to go workout' can't wait to get back in the swing of things! As a bonus/motivator my 4 year old has a blast at the daycare there!

Having support makes all the difference in the world! It's so wonderful to have people in the same boat that understand and have similar goals! I lost 100 pounds in the past and I couldn't have done it without forum support! Mind you I gained it all back after a divorce and 2 kids... But now-- I'm back on track and glad…

I just try to eat as naturally and less processed as possible. I just think to myself before I eat- will this benefit my body? Working on portion size now. I had gestational diabetes with both of my kiddos and sticking to the following carbs kept me in control: Breakfast: 15 carbs Snack:15 carbs Lunch:30 carbs Snack: 15…

I totally get what you are saying about the shift. I'm starting to like the 'high' of being on track and making healthy choices more than a bowl full of Mac n cheese or ice cream! It's only been a coule of weeks but I feel do much better and healthy food just tastes better! We can do this!!
