  • non fat greek yogurt...omg, getinmybelly!
  • Almost there!! You're so closecocolo, and doing great!
  • I know this sounds silly..and I've tried the lifting weights and increasing my protein intake (and lowering my carb and fats ratio) but still realized that I didn't get the look I wanted after lifting weights. I don't have high bodyfat, so I have no need to lose bodyfat. My metabolism is fine, I fit into skinny jeans…
  • Your BMI is saying that you are 9 pounds overweight. That should be an indication to you. Aim for a healthy BMI (although it is not a perfect system, it works for 90% of people......) Most women are happy and feel as though they "look good" between a BMI of 20-22. (according to halls.md BMI calculator)

  • chickybuns - Congrats on the new baby Miles :) and wishing you the best recovery! I'm happy to hear that you and baby are now safe...! Luckily we have some good medical services nowadays - wooh, what a ride you had!
  • I hate the fact that I'm obsessed with Kate! Ugh.. Yes- I'm secretly obsessed with the royal couple. I'm a little surprised by the fact that Kate managed to get pregnant in the first place! I hate to point this out, but Kate was quite underweight in the first year after her wedding and most likely did not have her period…
  • Thanks!! I'm amazed how I turned it around too - I thought I was going to gain 50+ lbs at the beginning of my pregnancy...not that it would have been a horrible thing.

  • The bump and ultrasound aren't accurate indicators! You uterus could be a huge ball of water and little baby. My mom's belly was biggest first my birth (compared to her 2 other kids) and I came out the smallest. I was 5 pounds and 6 oz. Also, the ultrasound had said that I was going to be a large baby(they had predicted…
  • Great article BTW as it gives an interesting perspective! I read it, but it really wasn't that encouraging to read. Essentially, it informs women that dieting during pregnancy will most likely not harm their child (see the last page of the article) Other than the fact that it shines the light on the problem that all these…

  • MFP bases its carb/pro/fat ratios based on the Canadian Food Guide/American dietary equivalent. Most people ask: Why are carbs and fats so high and protein so low? Most people think: Carbs aren't essential to keep muscle, stores lots of water. If proteins are so low, I will lose all my muscles. Fats are high in calories…

  • Many things could be pointed out here... 1- Someone who is 5ft tall and 350 lbs will lose faster than someone who is 150lbs and 6ft1. 2- A 16 yrs old at the same height/weight can lose faster than a 50 yrs old. 3- Someone who is training hard will lose quicker than someone who is sedentary. 4-They may have eaten at an…
  • You and your hubby are ADORABLE! LOVE LOVE LOVE those pics :) You look like the cutest pregnant woman alive. A must see for anyone who hasn't taken a peek yet.
  • Totally normal.
  • You are hitting that rough time where people (and yourself) don't know whether you're just packing on the pounds or whether you're pregnant. I promise this will change soon and you'll have the cutest bump ever. Its temporary. I know that in my first trimester and early in my second, I would have total break downs, crying…
  • My Mother-in-law and Father-in-law moved in with us for 6 months last year. We didn't even have a baby and wanted to rip each others heads off because we were constantly in each other's space. MIL took over my kitchen, groceries, bathroom space and time, FIL was simply rude in my house and completely ignored anything I…
  • Here I am for my weekly update yet again - starting my 3rd trimester now! I guess this is where the scale is supposed to sky rocket?! Strangely enough, I saw more of a gain this week. At 8 weeks pregnant I was +6lbs at 10 weeks pregnant I was +11lbs at 11 weeks pregnant I was +10 lbs At 12 weeks +8lbs At 13 weeks +10lbs At…
  • You ladies are sooo close to being done!! I'm jealous/envious.
  • Welcome to Baby Rose! I'd like to say "hello". I've just officially entered the 3rd trimester! 13 weeks and 1 days left to go! My due date is Feb. 6th and everything is going smoothly so far. Last time I checked, I've gained about 20 pounds so far and would like to keep my totaly gain under 35 lbs. No complications with…
  • I would never use one on my kid - EVER! Why? Because I remember my mother using it on me. It was the most awful thing in the world. I'm totally traumatized by it. My mom would use it on a regular basis on me because I was born with my nose being partially blocked by excess cartillage that had formed in my nasal…
  • Now wishing I lived in Paris.
  • I would love to think that making my own turkey sub at home would be cheaper and better for me, but I don't think that's the case. 1) Buy bread...pay 2.99 for sub buns (6 buns). 2)Buy 250g of natural turkey sliced meats... 4.99$ (enough for about 4-5 sandwiches) 3)Buy all veggies 10$ +... The problem that I run into is…
  • Agreed! I love subway. I just think its funny that people here talk about Subway like you are: a) going to become obese while eating it. b) going to die from a heart attack tomorrow if you keep eating it. c) going to lose all muscle mass and need to eat like a bodybuilder. d) going to have a serious insulin spike if you…
  • Sounds yummy, wish I had one around the corner ;)
  • ...and in your opinion, what is "high-grade superior-par food that tastes great"?
  • YAY!!!! :) Way to go!! 33.5 sounds pretty reasonable to me!
