  • I also recently found out I was pregnant. At the end of December I decided to turn my life around and really focus on losing weight and getting healthy, well, here we are and I find out that I am pregnant. I'm about 80 pds overweight right now, and my biggest fear is gaining a lot during pregnancy. I'm about 10 weeks right…
  • Well, so far today has been going alright. I'm @ work and have limited access to foods. I'm STARVING though as I didnt plan well and didn't bring much to eat on a 10 hour work day. I get off in a little over an hour. Hoping to not go crazy when I get home and stick within my carbs & calorie goals. I hope everyone has a…

  • Chocolate is a weakness of mine as well. I have yet to be able to not eat it if it's right there. I try to avoid the food areas at my work, but for people's birthdays they set up tables and sometime I'm blindsided by it and I have yet to control myself to continue walking.... UGH. Awesome job though for not eating any of…
  • I'm just going off of total carb count right now-- not really the "net" carbs. I'm trying to stay under 100 grams total carbs and to get at least 100 grams of protein a day... Do I need to do the Net carbs vrs just total carbs?

  • Just a question.. is it best to count over all carbs or net carbs?
  • I recently found out that I am insulin resistance so I have to start cutting carbs out of my diet. It's been extremely difficult for me. I've realized that I was eating hundreds of grams of carbs a day. I have not been able to eliminate them next to nothing, but I'm doing better. Today was bad though-- I caved and ate a…

  • That's awesome!!!! I've never tried Planks-- I'd probably end up on my face so I certainly commend you! :wink: I'm 3 pounds away from my small goal #1-- 25 pounds. Hopefully 1-2 weeks and I'll have that knocked off so I can get me a new purse.. Muahahhaa... :glasses:
  • I wonder these exact things. Why I can't resist a table of cookies and cakes? Donuts in the breakroom? I can watch several people walk by-- but I can't! I wonder why I let myself get to the point I am at. I wonder how I'll feel and look when I reach some of my goals! I'm constantly wondering about something!
  • What an inspiration to me and others. I'm going to do my pay it forward today and buy some random person lunch today when I go get mine. Always a good reminder to do good unto others as well. Also- you look WONDERFUL!

  • I have had my tracker for about 3 months and I like it a lot. It will track how many steps you take, how many flights of stairs and how many calories you burn. Now, it isn't 100% accurate but it does a really good job at telling the difference between your real steps and you just shaking the crap out of it to add steps.…
  • Here is a site that I found a PDF with lots of recipes. It's like 59 pages with all sorts of things. Doesn't give nutritional and there are certainly ways to change up things to make it low-cal or more specific to your diet. http://www.directorsupportservices.com/pcpics/MagicPotRecipes.pdf I do not know who that consultant…
