I'm 8 weeks with my second, I am dealing with what I THINK might be blood sugar issues. After about 3 hours of not eating I just anxious, dizzy, and nauseated. I'm trying to choose healthy things but I've gained 3 lbs already which is NOT good. I gained 40lbs with my first and my doctor only wants me to gain 25 this time.…

Some P90x videos are TOUGH. I can run six miles and be less exhausted than I am after CardioX or PlyoX. Plus some of them are high impact which may be difficult at this time. I have never heard of P90. Might be something to look into. Of course, P90x does have modifications, and you could certainly go at a slower pace if…

Ahh. I don't lift. I should, darn it. But I'm feeling like pre workout would help me get the most out of my runs. I wanna do a half marathon this year. I'm at a 10k now. I work 12s without enough sleep and also have a little one at home. Generally if I can force myself to even start working out I'm ok.

Ok so by both of you being concerned about over-using pre workout... what is the concern? I mean all things in moderation I suppose, but is it actually BAD to use them every workout?

I looove edamame. I just never know what to put it in! I'm used to it in asian food which I never cook really.

I have a friend who uses it that says its amazing. He said one time he took it and didn't get to work out for some reason and he felt like he was on drugs. Like so much energy he didn't know what to do with himself. I might look into it. I work nights and some days its a major struggle :)

Dang your protein is way above mine. I really think I'm probably underestimating my meats. Which sucks because it means I'm also underestimating my calories :/ I definitely need a scale. There are (rare) days that MFP shows my protein as less than even one of those protein bars so I should definitely get some it seems! I…

I weigh 140. I'm tall and thats an old picture :) I probably weighed about 130-135 in that picture.

I might get some protein powder too. I probably should. I just feel weird buying it. I know I need to get into doing some weights too, but its sooo hard for me. I'm a cardio person. I was proud of myself for doing an P90X other than CardioX honestly :)

Crap. MFP had me at 89. I'm been getting anywhere from 65-90. Should be getting about 112 based on that formula. I just had a feeling I wasn't getting enough. I guess I should at least get some protein bars. I don't really like yogurt but I put it in smoothies when I make them. I could also be underestimating my meat…

I am 5'8" so not exactly what you were looking for. Right now I'm just over 140. My goal is 130, but mainly just to be less squishy haha. My old "before" pictures would be when I was pregnant and at 170! But that doesn't really count haha.

I drink maybe once every 2 weeks. But I don't include it in my calories. I want to enjoy it and not think about all that, and since I do it so infrequently I just don't worry about it!

You look FANTASTIC! And happier too, which is what this is all about :)

I am a very amateur runner! I used to have a 7.5 minute mile and could run 3 miles in 25 minutes... Now I can't run more than 1.5 miles without walking in between. I did have a baby in between there though :) I have my first 5k in years at the end of March. My goal is only to be less than 30 minutes, but I'm working my…

Its not for everyone but I LOVE hummus. You can dip veggies in. Cucumber and hummus is a great low cal snack. The cuke it only like 15 calories if you eat the whole thing! And hummus helps maintain blood sugar at a stable level, which reduces that urge to snack more somewhat :) Lots of fruit! My hubby doesn't love fruit,,…
