Mom of four, I have 60 lbs to loose. I'm at a 100 days on MFP I'm 7 months pp and have lost the baby weight :) now I'm working on the baby weight from my first child who is now 18 :) add me

Bought size 14 (two sizes smaller)@ OldNavy now wishing I had tried a smaller size. Next week gonna do it. Can't be too bummed because not so long ago I couldn't shop there at all.

On a positive note my baby is six months now and I'm only 2lbs from pre-baby weight. On mfp for a little over two months. Ideal weight 50lbs away, but I'm taking it one day at a time. One motivated momma here!! :)

I didn't bog down the treadmill when I walked on it today. Lol Walk/ran 45 minutes straight!!

I hear you sister, I always gain. I attribute that to two main factors. I am too tired to prepare proper meals so there is an increase of high fat, high calorie foods, which also increases cravings for more unhealthy food. The second being not as active because most of the day is dedicated to maintaining daily life and…

Yes I homeschool :)

This is so exciting to hear, I'm stuck in a men's large because of my bra size. The womans sizes are so distorted, huge neck and arm holes. The horrible colors and designs. Not to mention the expense, if I do like the shirt. 5 dollar men's shirt until I loose a few sizes. May I hope for size medium? :)

Mom of three girls(17, 11, 4) and a new baby boy(5 months). I'm nursing. I have 60lbs to loose. Eat "clean" 80-90% of the time. My diary is open and I log everyday. Struggle the most with overeating, social eating, and sweets. Love walking!! Married 18yrs. Love encoragement!! Loving MFP! Feel free to add me if you are in…

Yes, I'm training for a half marathon (walking) in Sept. My calorie goal on mfp is a 1740.

Love this!!! So true!!

But i also read that lactating women need an extra 500calories but if you are already consume too many calories why would you need to add more? What i read seemed not to be based on women who are 60+ lbs over like me. The article did mention 3.1 liters (13 cups), is a good amount of water for us, which sounds reasonable.…

I'm nursing and keeping under mfp calorie goal. I've lost 6lbs. My goal wieght is 150. I've had no issues with nursing. My boy is 4months and growing just fine. Just keep hydrated. Better foods probably makes better milk anyways. There are teas to help with milk production that won't add extra calories. Even stores like…

I've noticed that many foods taste better because I'm no longer inhaling my plate to get another one. When you know one of something is enough you take time to eat it. :)

I made sweet potato black bean borritos

Walked 3 miles

Being a mommy takes up a big part of your day. My little guy is 4months and i was 209 before getting pregnant i was loosing weight and getting healthy. I wish i had mfp then. I was eating blind and excercising erractically. Now i schedule excercise and use my phone calander. I discovered a meal planning app, overnight…

Took daughter to a relay race, she rode her bike for 2miles and i had to walk a mile from and to my van. Also had my 12 lbs baby in an infant carrier the whole day 4 hrs.

If not enough calories are consumed the body eventually goes into starvation mode and starts storing everything consumed, especially carbs. Your daily nutrionals goals are as important as calorie goals. The body is like a vehicle, neglect any working parts and it will eventually not start.

I'm morbidly obese as well, not a fun term. I have't wieghed under 200lbs in 20 years. Started my wieght loss journey at my heaviest 250lbs. Currently 220lbs I lost 8 pant sizes but looking forward to being under 200. I'm 37 and mfp seems the best thing so far. Releaves the stress of eating.Its ok to eat. I also found an…

A "try not to stay at home" mom of four (4, 12, 18, and 4 months) three girls and a baby boy. Cronically over 200lbs. Training for 15k; did a half marathon last year got down to 208 then got pregnant. Need to loose 60lbs. Mfp helps me eat without feeling stressed. No guilt when i meet my daily goals. Excited to see what…

I did that wrong oh well. Water done. I'll try moving around during movie previews :)

I'm new here but i'm in. How does it work?

What nobody told me about major weight loss: you don't loose enough wieght..i lost 8 pant sizes but only 40 lbs ugh You get stuck between sizes double ugh People are nicer and listen to you when you talk. Which makes you feel worse about being big before. You don't want be compared to other overwieght people your skinny…
