Hi there! Day 9 for me. Im also intermittently fasting to get my insulin resistance under control. Im eating closer to the no-carb diet than low carb though. The first 3 or 4 days were hard, but its easy now. Need to find some new recipes though...

Cute workout clothes or workout gear in general seems to be a trend with me. Im thinking about a spa day though. Im in terrible need of a massage.😊 And I also keep a sexy outfit hanging in the closet for motivation, so when I hit a goal, I get to wear it.

Welcome!

Add me! Im active all day every day, whether its working out or chasing down my 3 heathen children!

Mom X 3 here! Trying to show my kids how to keep healthy and have a good body image, even if you carry some extra junk in your trunk!

Happy birthday, and welcome to the rollercoaster ride of weight loss!

Mom of three here, looking to lose 25+ lbs! Feel free to add me!

Im a MFP redo-er as well. Third baby put on some weight. Time to get it off! Feel free to add me!!

This was awesome! I used a scoop of body fortress plant protein vanilla, with an egg, baking powder and oat milk. Also added a dash of cinnamon. Came out great. Maybe next time Ill try using greek yogurt instead of oat milk.... I also made kodiak chocolate chip pancakes for the kids with some pea protein mixed in and it…

4 mile walk/jog followed by a TON of walking lunges (around 100, I believe). My legs are NOT HAPPY. But you know what they say..... You cant get a nice booty by sitting on it! B)

Hi! Mom of 3 here, getting back to MFP again after baby #3 packed a wallop on me. Just turned 40!!

I forgot to add I just turned 40 😞, and Ive been married 13 years

Hi there! Im a mom of 3 homeschooled kids in Florida. I was at my goal weight about 5 years ago, and then I got pregnant with baby #3. Had some health and physical issues since, but now Im working to get off about 20-25 lbs. Mostly doing walking and biking, along with bodyweight strength, like squat variations and pushups,…

I'm a busy mom of 2 little boys, and working out and getting in shape is very important to me as well. I'm training for the savage race in October. :-)

Stay at home mom, and CEO of our household. Before this, I worked in an auto repair shop. My real dream was always to train horses and teach people to ride. Its kinda sidelined now with a toddler and another baby on the way! I can still dream though.

Last year I portioned smaller servings and worked out a little more. This year Im pregnant, so Im gonna eat what I want dammit! Bring on the food!

For me, you practice what you preach. Now if said trainer or nutritionist had a baby recently or was coming off an injury, and was easing back in and getting the weight off, no problem. If they cant jog 1/4 mile without a heart arythmia or passing out- Ill find someone else. For me its kinda like having a Dr that is a…

For whatever reason, a lot of women want to look like 12 year old girls whos thighs dont touch when they walk. I dont get it. Id rather have thicker thighs than chicken legs. I dont think they realize that its how your built, not necessarily how skinny you are....

Mommy of 23 month old and expecting #2! Still trying to keep some fitness through this pregnancy. We will see how THAT goes!

Height-5'6" Weight-143 Age-31 Highest weight-201 four years ago Daily calorie allotment-2000-2300 Exercise of choice-running and picking up heavy things and putting them down :-)

Here's one im going to try.... mix chobani and ovaltine (milk chocolate flavor) with a little peanut butter. Squirt small drops onto baking sheet and freeze. Yum!

^^^ I understand your point about not taking the b.m.I. scale as gospel, but under 100 lbs for someone almost 5 and a 1/2 feet tall is too low, no matter what the b.m.I. scale says.

Not getting enough food can definitely keep you awake. Sounds like you need to A-eat more, B-burn less, or C-dont work out too close to bedtime. Maybe all three.

My husband said the same thing. He liked me 22 lbs ago, and even went so far as to tell me one night that my legs looked scrawny. Im still working on dropping some body fat, but I've started lifting weights. Since I've built some muscle and put some more curve back on, he says he likes my new body. As for losing the boobs,…

Weight lifting has more of a caloric afterburn than cardio. You wont get bulky lifting heavy because you lack the necessary hormones. Think of all the hard work men have to do in order to build a lot of muscle, and they HAVE the necessary hormones! Your muscles will hold water while they repair themselves, so they probably…

I run alone or pushing my 19 month old in his stroller. While I make sure to stay on high traffic trails , I can't take the chance that someone or something would attack us. Its my job to protect him. I carry a Kimber Pepperblaster. Its a pepperspray that will shoot 13 feet. Its not aerosol, so it even shoots through rain.…

Feel free to add me if you like! But I warn you, I REFUSE to drink coffee without sugar......:noway:

Two thumbs way up!!!!!

There's no way I could hit my protein macros without protein powder. I drink 2-3 shakes a day. It can be great for getting that extra protein, as long as you find a good brand.

Awe, man! I wish I could go too!!!
