Im only 2 days back into being committed. Usually I eat all day long,and all evening long- but thats why I've gained 25 lbs. Today I did a 1/2 scoop protein powder with coconut milk for breakfast,tea in the morning to tide me over,quinoa with carrots and green beans for lunch ( plus a small slice of ice cream cake the…

I know,I just don't usually have calories left by this point cause I feel hungry all day long and use them up. Was more hoping for some examples of what others on shift work did with their calories.

Looking for suggestions of disbursement that have worked well for others! I havnt been able to find a good balance thus far myself.

Im a nurse assistant in an ICU,and also a mental health unit. Single mama. Most of my shifts are 12 hours,and I've put on 25 lbs since returning to work 2 1/2 years ago after having my son.

-Lose 10-20 lbs -Enjoy working out again -Eat a more balanced diet

I am 5'3. 4 years ago I lost 30 lbs with mfp,went from 140 to 110. Now here I am 4 years later,two pregnancys,and a bad breakup back at 140 trying to get under 130 this time. Im not a success story YET-but I am a succesful work in progress.

The chickens come in,sitting in a briny liquid,so a lot of the drippings after are that brine coming out,like above said,if you let it cool you'll see not all of the liquid is fat.

Red lentil and squash ( and/or pumpkin) soup!! Soooo yummy!

I'm sure I won't have any advice to offer that isn't already been given . But hugs mama. I'm making it work with my son and myself on 14k last year, and hopefully will net almost 20k this year. Child support is basically non existent here too. I know the struggle. I make my own bread, and try to coupon - some of the coupon…

Yummy!

Im pretty budget bound as a single mom- Ive thought about the bike thing in the past,but never have the extra cash to spare. Its too bad too,I dont drive and it would be a great way to get around.

Feel free to add me ! Im 5'3" and my goal is around 130. Im currently flip flopping contstantly between 140-145 and cant seem to keep it off.
