Yes, nursing USES calories. You need to eat more to make good milk for your baby, and make sure you are drinking enough. Eat higher calorie foods (not fattening foods), like nuts, if you need more calories. I peeked at your food diary. I nursed 7 kids. (The last two for three years.) How old is your baby? How often is…

Oh. Just found dinner for tonight. Thanks!

The crock pot is your best friend. Prep the food the night before. When you come home, the house smells yummy and dinner is ready. You can buy the cheap, yucky cuts of meat and the crock pot will make them tender. Studies are showing you don't have to do 30-60 minutes of exercise at a time. If you can squeeze in 10 minutes…

same here. I log in weight every Thursday. I know when I go to sleep how much I will weigh in the morning because of my previous patterns. And yeah, I am also obsessed.

Sorry to disagree with a lot of you. I came to this forum with almost the same exact complaint. Last week I was at a friend's house and she kept offering me a latke (potato pancake that is fried in oil). I politely told her no thank you. She kept insisting I have it. I kept saying no. Polite people ask once or twice and…

Has anyone tried this recipe using flax seed in place of the oil? I made some banana bread doing that and it worked fine.

I work out late at night. I also get soaking wet. Everything comes off, shower, and fresh, clean pjs go on. I can't see putting dirty undies on after a shower ...

There is a fitness test you can take to see if you are ready. The 10 Minute Trainers are a great way to ease into the program. You can start with 1 and add another as they get too easy. Once you are up to doing 3 or 4 of them jump into the P90X. It is a total program. My physical therapist did it, and she looked awesome at…

A medium size firm green apple 3 cups hot air popcorn a very cold water bottle chewing gum (sugarless, but watch the carbs ... one brand had 2 carbs per piece!) I eat fresh salad with no dressing. Running errands today I tossed it into a plastic bag in my car A small or medium banana that is not fully ripe will also fill…

I'm also 5'3". I was stuck at 135 for years and years. I lost weight when I got married, down to 115/110 at one point. But then with the last three kids I hit 140 and couldn't lose weight. My daughter got engaged in April and I was determined to lose weight. I dropped weight, and kept it up until I hit 105 this week. I am…

My physical therapist told me that "THEY" have changed the requirements. You are supposed to take your body weight, cut it in half, and drink that much in ounces. If you weigh 200 pounds, you need to drink 100 ozs of water while someone who weighs 100 pounds needs to drink 50 oz. I also heard that liquid is liquid; doesn't…

I do it every week. I eat less on Friday because I know I will eat more on Sat. :-) You can also mentally cheat. Is the event at night? So mentally start your day at evening. OR, can you exercise more before to earn more calories? (I sometimes exercise more Sat. night knowing I ate more calories than I was supposed to.) I…

My food diary is also public. I have issues with sugar, and I *thought* I cut out all sugar (not hidden), white flour, etc. Breakfast: cottage cheese on low carb pita with cinnamon sprinkled on top tuna melt egg white omelet with spinach and low fat cheese sometimes yogurt, but it is high in sugar. I have found that when…
