Hey! I'm 33, looking to lose 30-40 pounds but it's been slow going. I'm vegetarian and have two little kids who keep me busy. ???

I'm still BFing my 2 year old. If anyone wants to add me I could use it!

I breastfeed my two year old and I think it makes it hard for me to lose weight. I don't calculate it at all but maybe I should so I eat more? It's really trial and error. Mostly error :wink:

Hey. I'm 33, have two kids, CW 195.5 (this morning) and GW 165 but it's taking me forever. Plus I had a kid in the middle. I'm 5'8. Group? Pair? How does this work?

Ask a rav. I was told that its okay to wash clothes that are dirty (not just worn, but smelly, sweaty, with mud, or anything else that makes them actually dirty) if you need to wear them,

Thanks! Yup, it's not accurate. But the calories are accurate. As in: I make scrambled eggs with spinach and log in just the egg part because the amount of calories in spinach is negligible (eg 7 calories a cup.) Then I sometimes will over something to add the 7 calories. So the bottom line number of calories is correct or…

Thanks everyone! I think I'm pretty good with portion sizes because I measure periodically to make sure I know how much I'm eating of things I eat a lot of. This was super useful. The BMR part especially. I also shouldn't over estimate calories for food and undestimate or not record exercise on purpose. Thanks!

Missed this. I lost the 25 in spurts over the past year or two. Whenever I log in and exercise I lose. I started tracking again a little over a month ago and nothing is moving. Not change in measurements either. I also made my diary public, but go easy on me. Thanks!

Yeah, I started looking thinner but wasn't losing weight (but I wasn't tracking. I've only been religiously tracking here for a little over a month.) Anyway, I started tracking over the past month, and not losing, and no difference is clothes and measurements. I measure my waist and hips and nothing is moving.

Hey! I'm still BF my 25 month old daughter. Would support from some extended breastfeeding mamas! Just posted about losing weight on one of the main boards. (I think that's what they are called. I never really go on these usually.) Was about the add that I am BF my 2 year old and then decided that nah, that might not be…

Thanks! What should I be looking for? Is there a way for me to post my diary here? I really just do it for myself so some parts aren't accurate (as in, I will put in another food with the same calories as what I am actually eating in order to keep track on the go.) The MFP is set to 1540-1740 for me. I just meant that even…

Thanks so much everyone! I've looked at my diary and no, there's nothing there. I should be losing weight! I try to make sure I have at least 1200 net, though I could try to do that more. I drink a lot of water, more than 8 cups. I also try to switch up how many calories I get (net or just from eating) every once in a…

Looking for my twin... Anyone? I'm 30 One kid, my beautiful daughter who just turned 2 5'8" HW 212 or so CW 190 GW 180 for now, but really 160 or so I've been much less than 160, but I think that's a good and healthy goal for me. I'm naturally very curvy. I like zumba, dancing, yoga.

hey! i'm new to the group, didn't do well on purim, but started exercising again yesterday. so yay!

I've received: hummus and carrots Salad with dressing and roll Various dips and bread or challah (pesto, tomato dip, etc.) Even fruits and veggies can get you two brachot And sending lunch or breakfast or something that people can use for their seuda is nice and helpful. You can call you mm the detox mm. With all the junk…

I haven't planned because I kind of expect the day to be a disaster. But you're right: never get hungry, make healthy snacks available, and allow some nosh. That's my goal. For me what's really important is to remember that even if I go overboard Purim it doesn't mean everything is over and I can go back to normal the next…

Hi! New mom and fellow breastfeeder here. I was just about to post something to introduce myself, and saw this. I have an 8 month old, am nursing, and have gained weight while nursing! But now it's time to take it off... It's super tough to try to fit in the time. I have no time to exercise, barely time to cook, and am…
