This sounds like it wouild be right up my alley thank you

@LiftHeavyThings27105 I think I'm going to do strong lifts 5x5. I need to find a squat alternative though. I broke my clavicle but not in the typical spot a few years ago. I practically severed the socket from the rest of the collar bone. I was pregnant at the time so the doctors wouldn't fix it. I'm now left with a…

@nowine4me I haven't been below 125 since my late teens when I was drinking heavily and never eating because I wanted either too busy or too hung over lol. Obviously that was not healthy. I've never been able to maintain a weight that low. My goal is to look like I only weigh 120 with out having to eat like I'm only 120, I…

Mfp gave me 1900 but I'm going to start at 1650 and adjust from there (I'm 28 btw). I am currently doing some body weight exercises but no real consistency in my routine. I also use my rowing machine and walk as much as possible. Going to a gym is not an option for me due to budget and childcare. I do however have a bar…

Yes it was diagnosed by a doctor. They said it was just plain colitis, not crohns and no ulcer. The doctors at the hospital said it was just an irritation from the food poisoning and should clear up in a week or so. When that didn't happen I went to my primary who told me this could be a permanent thing now. I was fine…

I feel like having buddy in the house is key!

Exactly! While I do fear it to an extent my diet is not changing because of that. My fear of it has only changed how cautious I am in food prep and kitchen cleaning! I am changing my diet to hopefully avoid flair ups of colitis which is incredibly painful.

I totally forgot that it changes swear words bahaha

Count me in!!!

Kraft makes a fat free cheddar. 45 calories for a 1/4 cup. That would be just enough cheese to get all the other stuff to stick to it and give it a little cheese flavor. Also just and FYI Kraft also makes a fat free moz. I am not a huge fan of the way it melts on pizza so I will use half of the fat free and half low fat to…

Thanks guys. I actually went out and got the Torani one this morning! I grabbed Smuckers sugar free caramel sauce last night but it still has 90 calories for 2 tbs. I can't wait to make my coffee this afternoon. With only 15 calories from the half cup of vanilla almond milk I think I might add just a bit of vanilla protein…

This is what before, during and after pictures are good for. If you haven't taken any yet do it now. When you're having a day where you feel nothing has changed you can see the side by side.

I have a wedding to attend in June and I will be in one in August. My big motivator right now tho is I need a new bathing suit and I would like to go shopping for that in about 6 weeks (upstate new York no need for it sooner lol) and I would love to look and feel good in a 2 piece

27 years old and have 5 to 10 lbs to go. Add me :)

Add me I need more friends!!!

Add me!!! I lost 20lbs so far and have about 10 to go. As I get closer to my goal I am realizing I need to add in more exercise to really get the body I want. Soooo my journey is far from over even tho I am getting close to my goal weight.

It depends on what I am in the mood for and how much time I have. I like Jillian Michaels, I have done 30 day shred, 6 week 6 pack, hot mommy healthy body (this one is meant for getting back into fitness right after childbirth/c section) and I have one of her dvd's that has a few 10 minute work outs on it. I also like that…

Ok so I read an article a year ago when I was still breastfeeding. In said article it said to calculate extra calorie needs for breastfeeding by multiplying the number of oz (easy for you since you pump) by 20. There are 20 calories in an oz of milk. So I was pumping 25 oz a day, that's 25x20= 500 calories. I entered…

Feel free to add me!

Oh and in the evening if I happen to be able to actually sit down and watch a show which is like never (3 kids and a SO who works 65 hours so pretty much a single mom) I will walk up and down the hall on the commercial breaks

Every bathroom break (which is often because I drink so much water) I'll do 15 jumping jacks. They aren't "steps" but still something to get me moving. Some times I'll throw a few squats in there too. Also make an effort to wiggle in your chair more or get one of those little bike things for under your desk. Park farther…

Add me!!!!

I never lost mine completely but it faded to only spotting for 1 day once a month and that is obviously not normal. I was actively trying for a baby at the time so I turned to a website called baby center for advice. On top of upping calories a bit I would add a cup of red raspberry leaf tea once a day. If you can't handle…

I absolutely will! Don't think I forgot about you if it takes a while. Grocery shopping won't happen until Friday and I probably won't make them until Saturday

Seeing a doctor and a chiropractor and they are both working together.

Yeah I have been trying to up my protein. I figured if it repairs muscles after a work out it would probably help a sore one heal faster. Chugging water like a mad woman too. My activity level is down to nothing :( my house isn't even getting clean and I feel terrible about it. The pain is so bad I went to the er last…

I once read in an article ( can't remember what it was called) that your body burns 20 calories to produce 1 ounce of breast milk. If you pump and know the number of ounces you are producing a day then you can kind of make a better guess at how much extra you need. It is usually any where between 250 and 500 calories extra…

I am so sorry for your loss. I was right where you are in 2015. Pregnant in October, D&C mid December and eating my emotions along with the hormonal crash caused me to balloon up. I have to say that jumping into fitness and focusing on getting my body ready to try again really helped get my mind off of the loss and focus…

I believe children's nyquil is the exact same dosage as adults but tastes like cherries.

3 kids, 3 c sections! The struggle is real. After my second c section I had an indent at my scar but no hanging pooch. Now I do and I hate it. I don't mind the stretch marks but the hanging skin/pooch thing really bothers me
