I'd go with what you are feeling. The more strenuous the exercise, the more time you will need to recover. Do what you can do for the rest of your life. It's a lifestyle change! :flowerforyou:

It works if you work out more.

Cute! :) The whole diaper thing might be tough to go back to though....:wink:

Yes. This is one of the major flaws of WW to give people "free" foods. Good for being healthy, bad for scientific weight loss. Fruits and veggies have calories. Too many calories = gaining weight.
-
No, people shouldn't mistreat you for how YOU choose to live. HOWEVER: MFP is for HEALTHY weight loss. Eating 600-800 calories does not qualify as HEALTHY weight loss, regardless of WHO you ask. Yes you WILL lose weight, and no starvation mode isn't as common as it is touted here by fear mongers. HOWEVER, it is EXTREMELY…

Exercise, not eating over your maintenance, getting plenty of protein (1 g per kg of body weight), and MORE exercise. :wink: You can do it!
-
:sad: Such a lovely transformation!! :drinker: Way to be a good example for your daughter, and way to be an inspiration for all of us! Keep up the good work!! :flowerforyou:

Here is a really good article on breast feeding from the Mayo Clinic: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/breastfeeding-nutrition/MY02015 "Do I need extra calories while breast-feeding? Yes, you might need to eat a little more — about an additional 400 to 500 calories a day — to keep up your energy. To get these extra…

True dat. :ohwell: But I don't see the point in making light of it and pretending it's ok! I wonder what everyone's reaction would be if this thread were started by a man..."what have you thrown at your woman?" Not kewl either.
-
Wow, I really think anyone who has physcially thrown something at another person in anger is immature and doesn't know how to deal with their emotions properly.:frown: It is ALWAYS unacceptable behavior to react violently in a physcial way towards another person (regardless of your sex). Always.

Protein is great for people, especially those that are losing weight but trying to not lose muscle mass. Also, I would like to mention, that for most people MFP's default settings for protein is unreasonably low (one should try to eat around 1 g of protein per kg (2.2 lbs)). Most cheese/dairy products is very high in…

Polar FT 4. :love: :love: :love: Found mine at Bodytronics.com for $62.

Thanks! :blushing: And stay diligent, your journey has just begun my dear. A wonderful new journey, but not an easy one either. :smile:

Fantastic lady!! Way to be proud, you have earned it!!:drinker:

The best way to conquer a habit is to KNOW ABOUT IT and PREPARE. Like going into battle. For example, if you KNOW you always want something to eat after you get off work, then SAVE ROOM in your daily goal for it at the end of the day. Even plan out what it is going to be (something healthy!) so your brain knows what it is…
-
I remember doing the same thing when I first started and being horrified lol. :sick: I was actually like "GOOD JOB BODY, I CAN'T BELEIVE YOU DON'T WEIGH 1,000 POUNDS ALREADY!!" :laugh: Onward and downward! You can do it!!:drinker:
-
Yes, you do ignore those non-added sugars in your daily diary. It's unfortunate that MFP works that way but it does, it's not complex enough (yet) to sort out added and non-added sugar and it is a big confusion point for many. What I did was create a "food" that was 0 calories but negative sugars, and at the end of each…

I don't think it's offensive. Being overweight is a choice. I don't respect people aren't taking care of their bodies, this includes by doing drugs or staying overweight or anything that is destructive, and I certainly wouldn't want to date someone who is.
-
Lady. Welcome to the public's internet. Part of being an adult is taking the good and ignoring that bad. You are berating people for berating people. And I really don't see how an unrelated story about a highschool has to do with a hottest girl/boy thread. Aside from being a hypocrit, you need to Get. Over. It.
-
I feel tired when it is cold outside. I don't want to go out and do anything, just sit around all day feeling cold. When a sunny warm day comes along, I'm all energy!
-
Fan-freaking-TASTIC!! :drinker: YOU ARE DOING IT (and bringing your loved one along with you!!!)!!!! KEEP IT UP!!:flowerforyou:
-
Dude. BREATHE. WE ALL mess up. WE ALL go on bingers. It happens, that's LIFE! Stop beating yourself up. Congratulate yourself on how much work you have done. Pick yourself up, and CARRY ON. :flowerforyou: You are doing it, this is a hiccup!
-
I'm not offended, just concerned. You have to be VERY careful, especially when asking random strangers, for questions about your self worth. Luckly MFP is pretty supportive when it comes to weight loss, but still. Guard your heart. :flowerforyou: Don't just throw yourself out there to the wolves! Your self worth isn't…
-
Welcome sista! I'm pear shaped as well. But wherever you carry your extra weight (read: fat), when you lose it will come off that area eventually. My thighs have gone down by a couple inches (lost 17 lbs) so far. As you lose weight it will melt off. Just hang in there!! It's TOTALLY worth it. I NEVER thought I could fit in…
-
Uhm, our opinions on what? How you look? How the clothes fit? Normally people post before and after, not just "HOW DO I LOOK?" Methinks you might have some self esteem issues if you are just randomly asking people for approval on your appearance. :frown: You look lovely, you are a beautiful woman, and you appear fit. But…
-
I have a great weight loss plan for your family: ONLY EAT WHAT FITS ON A SPOON. And stand on your head for 30 seconds every hour. That's it. You owe me $200.
-
It took me A LONG TIME to "see" my own results. I think it's a brain thing. My scale was the first to tell me I was losing weight, my clothes were the second, other people third, myself LAST. After I was doing MFP for awhile I started measuring myself too because that helps. And I never was into the pictures but alot of…
-
I agree 100% and have posted that as a suggestion to MFP that even though IT IS the internet, as far as I am concerned MFP is a private group and things should be kept out of the mainstream. Don't think it will happen though. :ohwell:
-
I don't mind ma'am because I think it has alot to do with your culture (southerners like it, for example). I am not senstive about my age so I think that helps...you are always an "old fogie" to SOMEONE. What I HATE though is "honey" or "sweetie" or any other term of endearment. I know it is a cultural thing too but I just…
