I'm 16 weeks 4 days and have gained 5.8 lbs. I think it also depends on what weight/bmi you started at and how much you should gain during your pregnancy based on that. Dont' be too strict or hard on yourself. Enjoy pregnancy! Once we have these sweet little babies we can get back to losing weight. Right now we should just…

I'm a pescatarian looking to lean more towards vegetarian this year. I really need to up my protein intake so looking for any tips that you all have of non soy protein tips :smile:

MFP Original starting weight - 163.6 February starting weight -162.4 February goal -157.4 Ultimate goal -140 1st - 8th - 15th - 22nd - 28th - Total loss for February -

Great information and advice! Thank you so much!!

New to joining this group! I am ready to lose 5 lbs by March :-).

SW 147 CW 144.5 but not official because I weighed in on Tuesday and was 148 however it was that time of the month(first day) I hopped on the scale today and was 144.5 so we will see on Tuesday next week!

I have been but my weight loss has not been great so I would say it depends on how your body reacts. 1200 calories a day (which is my goal) and a 45 min run do not really work well together for me though.

Today I decided to drink more water!

I love water but do find that I constantly am struggling to get enough. I usually only get about 5-6 cups a day and I am a runner training so not very good. I cannot have water on the clinical part of my job and that is where I usually am. I work in radiology and it is against state regulations to have food or bevarage…

Sounds great... will do!

Have you ever tried making your own yogurt?? Then you can control what goes in it. What test did your doctor run to determine the Candida overgrowth. I have all of the symptoms of Candida and yet no doctor has even mentioned it. I think sometimes it is just hype to sell things but I really have issues that all point to…

SW-149 CW-147 GW-125 Height-5'3 Could use the help too!!

SW-149 WEEK 1-147 GW-127 UWLG-125 Unsure if 127 is an acheivable goal but I will try! Of course in a healthy way :-) I would even be super happy with 130!

You can add me also! :-) Welcome aboard!!

Awesome I will def be following

Yes I'm not sure either. Is there an actual group to join?

I'm in ! Needed a challenge now I have one :smiley:

BTW I saw a recipe on that same web site with the lentils that called for a bean like chili (they put chicken) in a 1/2 spaghetti squash and melted cheese or vegan cheese on top. I plan to put this lentil masala in my 1/2 of spaghetti squash for a good filling dinner instead of the chili! Just a little idea :smile:

I made that recipe last night and it is FANTASTIC if you like Indian food (which is my favorite). Thank you for sharing!

Definitely Try to get more water in! A lot of times your body gives you a signal for being hungry but really your just thirsty. It can make a HUGE difference. It also helps get rid of bloat, evens out your skin, bowels, and just makes you have more energy. I love water! :smile:

Thank you!

Hi! I'm Amy and I've been vegetarian for about 7 years now. I am currently a Pesco-vegetarian (eat some fish and seafood) however I was completely vegan for about 4-6 months and then vegetarian for many years before eating the way I do now. I try to limit my processed foods and eat as much raw vegan foods as I can. I am…

atynk, Could you give me your lentil Sloppy Joes recipe?? Thank you!

Hi all! I am Amy and so far not that great. I guess if I can find a positive for my progress so far it's that I realize I am eating toooooo much!! I tend to have downfalls at night and after a good workout where I then find myself famished. I need to focus on drinking more water and find a way to get enough calories in…

Height: 5'3" Highest weight ever was: 162lb (a medicine caused this, ugh) current weight: 149lb (was 138 about 3 months ago and gained a bunch after a cleanse) Goal weight:130lb 19lbs to go!

For me I also like to find what isn't fitting and find a great pair of jeans and hang them so I can see them everyday until they fit. I mainly, however, go online (mostly Pinterest) and will find a lot of different motivational post or just read about getting fit and kind of go overboard with exercise ideas etc. One more…

I know everyone says don't weigh yourself everyday but I like to as well. Sometimes I will do once a week on the same day and time when trying to lose a lot. I like to see how much water weight I have and I also like to see how much water I've lost after a long run. So I say if it isn't causing an unhealthy reaction for…

I am dealing with this right now and have dealt with it before as well. I find that I always think that I have slashed a bunch of calories when I start eating healthy but in reality I'm always eating too much. I have to eat about 1200 calories a day for my body to lose any weight. I also need my body to get used to the new…
