I've decided to just knock my activity level down. I'm doing much better with my calories and I'm now hitting that daily goal or just below it. I'm still getting used to it but it seems to be good so far. Trial and error I suppose

I'll do 50 by Christmas with you. I need to put a deadline on my weight loss. That will be my short term goal. I'm looking to lose way more than that as a final goal

http://www.parenting.com/gallery/sneaky-chef-recipes?page=1 My 13 year old will NEVER eat a vegetable. Or so she thinks. I make her these pizza's all the time. I puree the veggies myself though (there is something about eating baby food at the ripe old age of 33 that makes me feel weird) . My youngest boy (7) does the same…

I'm in the exact same boat. All the way down to having 3 kids lol. The struggle is very much there. I can't afford to buy double the food either. The trick is to sneak in the healthy foods with your kids not knowing that you're doing it. I made meatballs the other day. Gave my kids them on a Sub. Funny thing was, it was…

They said it. So I asked about it. They said that I have to get closer to my goal. I thought about it all night and with everyone's suggestions, I'm trying a few things different today. I guess it's just going to be trial and error until I can get it right

I'm eating 1500-1600 and I still have 800-900 that I still have to eat by the end of the day.

Possibly but I have a small farm at home as well that I'm also trying to take into consideration. It's a small bird farm about 20 chickens and 20 turkeys. That's a good suggestion

I think you're right. I went from eating huge servings of cereal, jelly beans, soda, and red meats. To zero soda, zero cereal, yogurt,nuts and pumpkin seeds, and only turkey and chicken with lots of veggies in between. I'll figure out where I'm going wrong. It's only been 2 weeks since I Started.

I measure everything. I even have a scale for work, so if I decide to change my mind on the food I brought with me, I can measure the food I buy a the grocery store next door. I make sure I log everything down to the measurements of salad dressing I might use on my salad.

But I'm not hungry hahaha. I'm definitely going to try harder. I just can't seem to fit it in if I'm not hungry. I'll just have to add a little extra to every meal

I set it to lose and I only wanted 2lbs a week. I set it to moderately active as I'm always on my feet running from one side of the building to another for my job. There is no sitting where I work

I'm good at eating most of this stuff already but others I would have never thought of. Great ideas. Thank you!

I'm doing the same! If you want, you can add me.

Not married but happily together with a great man for the last 11years.

Thanks :)
