I have a digital scale. I do weigh out all my solid foods on the scale. then use measuring cups and spoons for liquids.

I am 5ft tall and was considered obese when I got pregnant with my son my doctor didn't want me to gain no more then 15-20 pounds. she told me to eat an extra 300-500 calories daily I didn't really know what that meant because at the time I wasn't calorie counting. I just ate when i was hungry and tried to be mindful and…

Amazing Progress! like I am super proud of you and you have def inspired me all over again. I am 5ft started at 212lbs got down to 148lbs and somehow convinced myself that I can do it alone without having to track my calories so I stopped religiously counting for about a year and gained almost 20lbs I started back…

I have great success when I eat Oatmeal in the morning. I can also be satisfied with a meal replacement bar. I am not much of a breakfast eater regularly so a bowl of oatmeal keeps me full until just about lunch time.

when my kids were little like that my youngest is 3 now but I would put them in the stroller and start walking if the weather was too hot or too cold and rainy we would go to the mall and do laps. Good Luck and enjoy the little ones when they are little I swear my kids (8 &3) are just growing too fast I can't keep up.

I was overweight when I found out I was pregnant with my 2nd I had lost about 25lbs when I got pregnant with my son.
