I try to eat plant based breakfast and lunches a lot just so I have lower calories. My easy go to breakfast is two pieces of low calorie bread with either avocado or this hummus like spread I make by blending garbanzo beans with water and seasonings. I typically make a fruit smoothie with just fruit and water too. For…

I weighed about the same as you when I got pregnant and had my baby last year. I put all of my weight loss goals to the side and worked with my doctor to determine how many extra calories I should eat during each trimester of pregnancy. I'm sorry to be blunt, but when you are pregnant it is about your baby and not you.…

I got a $20 one from wal-mart this weekend! Works great for just weight. :)

Cheat days use to mean eating whatever I want and not logging it. That's why I kept having to 'start over'. Now I don't have cheat days because I'm not cheating myself. I will have maintenance days though. These days are when I need a break from the lower calories or if I have a special thing going on like going out to…

You can eat whatever you want to, just fit it in your calories.

I personally take a break from eating lower amounts of calories every couple weeks by eating at maintenance for a weekend. I also enjoy buying myself small things (never food) to reward myself for sticking with it awhile or for losing a set amount of weight.

I added you. Anyone else can feel free to add me as a friend as well. I get motivation by seeing my friends' achievements so I enjoy commenting on theirs! :)

We got a Horizon Fitness T202 recently and love it! It took about 6 weeks for delivery because it was backordered, but it was worth the wait.

Exercise is for the body not for weight loss. :) I try to do cardio 5 days a week for 30 minutes and two days of weight exercises.

when I was pregnant I set my calories to gain a half a pound a week in the first half of my pregnancy and one pound a week towards the end. Ended up only gaining five pounds above my doctor's recommendation of 20 pounds (then I gained extra after birth but that's another story).

My girl is almost 13 months old and I'm trying to lose the baby weight still too! I'll add you! I share my diary and try to post motivating statuses. :smiley:

I pick a show and only watch it while using the elliptical, treadmill, or bike. It works really well to make me workout. :)

Thanks guys! I should probably clarify that my "outfit" would consist of like a t-shirt and jeans or sweat pants. so they should fit pretty well on me. I def am not going to buy an entire wardrobe unless I have decided that I'm staying at that weight.

Great job!!

Great job! Such an inspiration!

Great job!

I'd love more friends! I've been here before, but started a new account. I'm looking to lose about 85 pounds total, and just lost my first 5!

Sloppy joes and instead of using buns use the sweet potato!

When I was pregnant I gained 25 pounds (haven’t lost it yet but that’s another story...). Make sure you keep track of calories and eat between 200-500 extra a day, eating closer to the 500 towards the end of pregnancy. Make sure if you are breastfeeding that you are still keep that small additional above your maintenance…

This is my first time here. Starting weight is 260 one year ago today. This is the highest I ever weighed. My daughter turned one year old today and I am still 258-260 (gained the small amount of weight I lost after birth). I struggled in January. But we did do one cool thing! I bought my first piece of experience…
