  • Count me in. I usually try and throw in a couple of T25 workouts in each week along with my other workouts.

  • Hi- I hope it's not too late to join. Here are my stats: - Current Weight: 181.5 13 Week Goal Weight: 175 Measurements: I plan on doing them tonight along with my before photos. For Team Determination Breastfeeding: No Working: Work mostly from home (2 days a week I work outside of the home) Number of kids: 2 Age of…
  • I am also having a hard time. We are finally down to just one feed a day (in the morning) and I know the end is coming. My little girl is not ready to give up the boob quite yet, but it's time.
  • Nabisco Swiss Cheese Crackers, Jif with Honey (I can't find it anymore :sad: ) and York Bites.
  • I ran my first ever 5K and completed it in 39 minutes (slow, but I ran the entire way). :)
  • I am really hoping this is true. I just started weaning my 1 one year old. It's going very slowly because she's not ready and I'm not exactly forcing it. We have gone from about 4 feeds a day down to 2-3 (depending on how the day is going). I am hoping to have her fully weaned in the next month or two. I've been running 3…
  • Oh my gosh yes!!! One of my really good friends is a marathon runner and every single post is about her run, running gear, and the next big race. I finally just had to unfollow her posts so I didn't have to see them anymore. I've done that to a couple other people that post about food and how bad certain things are and…

  • Congrats on making it a year! I am not too far behind you. For some reason I just can't bring myself to drop a feeding yet. I get emotional thinking about not having that bond anymore then I step on the scale and realize that I am never going to drop this weight until after I wean (fingers crossed :) ). I don't even know…
  • My goal is to start today. I've done it before and have had great results. I just need a good kick in the butt to get motivated. I have an 8 month old that never sleeps so I am beyond tired and the thought of jumping around makes me cringe. haha
  • Feel free to add me! I'm breastfeeding my almost 8 month old daughter. She's also a very big baby. She's almost 22 lbs and has definitely outgrown her infant seat. My husband it out picking up a new seat right now. :)
  • Mine returned at 6 months PP and it was horrible! Now I get them like clockwork. :( I was so loving not having it every month and what really sucks is that when I ovulate my nipples hurt sooooo bad. Every time I nurse her for about 2 days I cringe. I don't remember that happening with my first kiddo, but man oh man it…
  • I am right there with you. The past couple of months I haven't even bothered logging. I step on the scale at least twice a month and I haven't gained anything since I stopped logging. I lose the same 4-5 pounds each month. I did get down to my lowest since having my 2nd about a month ago. Not sure how, but I was pretty…
  • Thanks ladies. I ended up going with the Medela. Got it for $30 on Amazon (YAY). I love my double electric Medela, but I rarely use it now that I am home with my kids more. I just needed something for traveling and work days so I didn't have to drag my electric one around. This will be soooo much easier.
  • I found this on the weight loss-post pregnancy board. I'm not having an issue with my supply right now, but thought about making them to see how they compared to the other lactation cookies that I have made.

  • Adding you now! :)
  • Large black iced coffee...even in the winter time.
  • 5'6" Pre-pregnancy weight: 154 (lost almost 50 lbs after giving birth to my first baby) 39w3d: 196 (was 222 with my first baby- so overall I wasn't to bummed about this) 1 week pp: 178 (and I stalled here for a long time) Baby # 2 is now almost 12 weeks and I'm only down to 174 I have my calorie goal set at 1500 + 500 for…
  • Congrats on the new baby. Feel free to add me. I have a 3 year old and an 11 week old baby and I'm on MFP daily.
  • Is he always hungry when he wakes up each time? I was reading that babies sleep cycles are very short and can start to wake an hour after being put down. My daughter was doing that a lot and I thought she was hungry because she was stirring around in her sleep and making noise like she was hungry. I started just going in…
  • Honey Bunches of Oats Fruit Blends (Mango/Coconut) with Unsweetened Almond Milk.
  • I'm having horrible cravings lately (mostly due to breastfeeding and feeling like I am starving all day). I recently had to cut out dairy and caffeine and all I want is some chocolate ice cream with a large iced coffee! I figured I would just get on here to distract me from eating the entire kitchen. haha
  • I had the same issue with my baby. I ended up going to see a LC. She suggested waiting until the baby is rooting for food. She described it as a shark looking for food. It has definitely helped. I also use the football position a lot and I can usually get her to latch much better. The first couple of weeks are really…

  • Add me. Just had by 2nd 2 weeks ago. I gained a bunch of weight and still have 20lbs to go to get back to pre-pregnancy weight. I log daily and will be back at exercising soon!
  • I have a few minutes before the little one wakes up for her next feeding so I figured I would share my birth story. I woke up around 6am and had bloody show. I started having some cramping shortly after. I blew it off for the first couple of hours, but told my husband he should probably stay home just in case. The cramping…
  • Had my big baby girl last night and she's perfect!
  • Still pregnant here. I've been having some contractions for the past couple of days, but nothing close enough together. Just lost my plug yesterday, but I could still be like this for a week. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the next 24 hours and then baby has to stay in until Thursday because we don't have anyone to…
  • I had another check today and I am still at 1cm. This is the 3rd week in a row. :( They talked about stripping my membranes next week. I just don't want to be induced and I'm afraid to go past my due date since they are estimating that I will have at least an 8.5 lb baby again. I so wish we could just plan when our babies…
  • I don't know how all of you ladies are dealing lately, but I am MISERABLE! I just need to vent for a minute if that's ok. It's been so hot here lately, which doesn't help and we only have an AC unit for our bedroom so getting any relief is difficult unless it's at night time. I'm so sick of peeing or feeling like I need to…
  • Still here and also feeling completely irritable. I had a dr. appt this week and still at a 1. Dr. said I was thinning out though, which is good. I was just hoping for more than a 1. Dr. guessed on babies size and said he/she was probably around 7.5 lbs already and if I go to by due date he/she will be around 8.5 lbs.…
