"you'll be so beautiful when you lose the baby weight" my thoughts --what?!? bite me, i'm beautiful now, you turd "you look JUST like my boyfriend's sister! See? Look at this picture of her" my thoughts---yikes.... "Wow...you look TIRED....but your hair is cute" my thoughts--actually, I had a full night of sleep finally.…

thanks, alice. and everyone else...you guys have great advice. and just to reiterate, losing weight quickly in these 2 wks is a temporary thing....i understand that it's not the best way to lose and i plan to keep losing (the sensible way) after the contest. also, just realized i have baby poop under my fingernail and…

The salt tip is a great thing for me to do.....i love salt. too much. i don't eat certain pretzels or crackers if they aren't salty enough..... i think my 2 year old has the same affinity for salt....she sucks the salt off the goldfish crackers and spits the cracker out! ha! should i focus on mostly just cardio, and not so…

thanks, guys. i tend to have a super immune system (i'm an RN who worked in the ER and pysch ward for years....after a few years, i just didn't get sick much....i think i was exposed to so many germs, i developed a great immune system).....so i'm not really worried about getting sick. i would think it would have happened…

I'll add you! I'm a mom of four girls, all four and under. it's HARD to take time for yourself and workout (at least for me!) let's do it!

Hi, NewMama! i'll add you!

hi :) i'll add you as a friend! i need accountability, too :)

added you! :) you can stalk me, if you want! haha

hi, jassy! i know what you mean...my husband eats probably 6000 calories a day and is still in good shape...he's always wanting to eat! it's hard, but luckily, he's supportive of me. great job with losing 65 pounds....that means you know how to do it! :)

Thanks for the support and friend requests! and Rycbar, anksthay orfay oticingnay ethay igpay atinlay :)

i'm in the same boat! i have two yr old twins and a 5 month old....it's SO hard to exercise.

you're a beast!! great job!! i JUST started a few weeks ago and I can only run about 1/4 mile without stopping....i'm inspired by you! keep up the good work!

you go girl! also...i like your name...oplesandbanonos :) made me laugh!

docHelen---thanks for the encouragement!!! i love hearing that it's possible to lose the weight. Nic--I'm actually doing the cardio in the morning before they wake up (around 6:30 if i'm not working, 5:30 if i'm working) and then the second 'dose' after they go to bed, around 8:30 at night. i don't like working out so…

my eating habits DEFINITELY need to be controlled....i think you guys can see my food log, but let me know if you can't. i'm trying to eat around 1200 to 1300 calories per day. i'm doing cardio twice a day....20 minutes in the morning and 20 minutes at night. do you think it would be better to do 40 minutes all together? i…
