I've lost 25 pounds since January and we started TTC in Sept after I got my IUD out.. Well to our surprise, we are pregnant! My goal this pregnancy is to eat good and watch my weight. I gained a TON with Andrew (he's getting ready to turn 4).

Yep.. Live in Katy, work downtown Houston! :)

wow you are looking great!!

oh I am an addict too..

Lina, you are doing great. Andrew does same of the same stuff. He does get treats too. He asked me the other day if he would have to exercise more now or could go to the gym with me. lol Andrew's daycare does focus on healthier eating though. I know this because my husband got Andrew donuts the other morning and Andrew…

you look amazing!! great job!

great job!!

Here's my recipe! http://busymomeasymeals.blogspot.com/2010/10/pumpkin-bread-with-cream-cheese-filling.html

I made pumpkin banana muffins from scratch over the weekend. They were 130 calories each. I can post the recipe.

Love you Lina.. so true though..

you look fantasic!! Hot momma! :)

just watching calories and exercising..:)

food network lets you search by this: (it's called quick recipe finder) I want to make the perfect _____ (lunch, dinner, etc) with __________ (ingredient - it's a drop down) ready in ___________ (time) recipes from ____________ (different searching sites)

have you tried the spinach ziti yet? we are making this tonight for the first time.. I know, not pumpkin related. I don't like veggies, but am learning to cook with them for the kids. :)

I can only drink room temp water or flavored water. I like the fruit H2O. I just make sure I log the sodium (it's not too much though).

I did the same thing (boiled the pumpkin in chunks though) this weekend. I made pumpkin cookies and pumpkin bread with a reduced fat cream cheese filling. So yummy! You can also freeze it too. :) BTW, I have the recipes, etc on my blog. http://busymomeasymeals.blogspot.com/

you are doing great!! you look wonderful!

Thanks everyone!! I appreciate the support. I'm only 5 feet tall.. That's why I stood on the chair. :) I don't have a full size mirror, so I made my own at work.. LMAO! I started out in a size 18 and am now a comfortable 14, but I fit into a size 12 yesterday. So exciting.. :) Here's to the last 31 pounds!

Thanks everyone for all of the support.. :) Thanks so much.. as I am turning 35 soon.. It's nice to feel and look younger.. Although I just got carded the first time in years the other day!! LMAO!!

Woohoo!! that worked!! Thanks again!

When I do that is says image has been deleted or moved.. strange

Ok, which code does I use so that you can see the pics? I tried all of them.. thanks.

Ouch.. Try vodka on your blister.. I know that's random, but a friend told me about it and she swears by it.. 13. If a blister opens, pour vodka over the raw skin as a local anesthetic that also disinfects the exposed dermis. from this website.. http://www.tummyfluff.co.uk/news/vodka.htm

If you can take your clothes to a resale shop. Or you can buy yours from a resale shop. We have goodwill and a couple other places. Everytime I drop a size, I go there. I normally pay $3 - $8 for a pair of pants. I do have to look for good deals, but they can be found. good luck.

I got my IUD in July 2007 after having my son. I just got it out on September 8, 2010. I dropped about 3 pounds right after I got it out. I have since gained them back because I start AF on Sept 30th. I will be curious how my body reacts now. I did not have AF for the 3.5 years I had the Mirena IUD.

Are you drinking enough water? I hit plateaus every 10 pounds and then I get stuck for about a month. (173-175 and 163-165)

you can do it!!

great job!! it's amazing how we can reprogram our minds and lives!! Woohoo!

I do it before I eat it..

I don't like them either! They are not based on reality and how people should really lose weight. I mean if I had that kind of help, etc I might not be the weight I am today, but I wouldn't have learned anything though. I think they are mean and over the top. I do not like Julian at all. She annoys me to no end.
