Even later reply, I am also in GR and want a buddy

Vegan mama of 2 vegan kids and I've been snitching too much off their plates lately! I am in decent shape just need to ditch the 15 pounds I know I'd feel happier without. I don't need a whole new wardrobe...I just need to upgrade my body so it fits better in my clothes again! Suzanne

I think it's best to let the animal live and go eat something (not someone) else.

Have you tried a "Chickpea of the Sea" sandwich? It's essentially along the same lines as a tuna/chicken salad sandwich but you coarsely chop up chickpeas instead. You can even add a dash of kelp or grind up a sheet of nori seaweed sushi wrapper if you want a fisher flavor.…

A wiggle, not a jiggle, in my walk. That's what.

What this person meant to say is, spinach has more protein PER CALORIE than red meat. And none of the fat, cholesterol, hormones, ethical issues...etc. :-)

I went with "sinistras" because of the Latin root meaning "Left." Funny how it also is the root for sinister, which I am not. S is my first initial.

...Dr. Atkins died of heart disease/heart attack from following his "diet." Might lose weight but the damage long term to your body is a steep price to pay...

Just love it how people get all in a bunch that the answer really is more fruits/veggies and plant proteins. Every. Time. Plants. Rule. :-D

learn to like veggies + green smoothies. :D

As Good As It Gets. :-D

this topic sounds like a headline from National Inquire

What about 150? poor guys don't stand a chance

Match.com I wasn't "looking" for a husband, I just signed up with a friend as Match was running a New Year's free week trial. I knew I would marry him on our third date and only after knowing him about 2 weeks. It can and does happen :-) 6 year anniversary coming up!

"I got this weight loss/health thing down."

eggs, dairy, and meat, and processed foods.

psst...veggies veggies veggies

^^Yup. Breastfeed on, exercise as able and eat healthy and it's all good. And OP I also had both my babes at home and caught them. Midwife present, but she knows I like to labor alone. :-) Then we had a birthday brunch after each in our home, family and friends, cake, champagne....best 2 days of my life by far! Congrats…

"Do what is best for you" was my first line. :-)

Exercise--Do what feels best for you. If you can do ab exercises, great. With both babies, my midwife left me with an ab workout instruction sheet for the first 6 days after labor. Not anything Sean T would do on Insanity or anything, but exercises nonetheless! Unless you've had a C-section, you can and should do ab…

On that note, eat to hunger. If you can eat to hunger at 1200 calories (very possible, if you eat LOTS of fresh fruit, veggies, and completely unprocessed foods) all the better. I see no point in putting a hold on getting your body back if you can nurse successfully and eat at a calorie deficit simultaneously. Especially…

I'd talk with a midwife or go to a La Leche League meeting before talking with your doctor. This is much more their specialty.

Hi, Congratulations! I just had my second late April. It's not too soon to do either, if you feel ready. I was in a cycling race 6 weeks post partum and trained in the weeks prior. It's whatever you can handle on the lack of sleep a newborn brings! Exercise and cutting calories to 1200 should not pose a threat to…

YES!!! I make the recipe from www.chocolatecoveredkatie.com Way less sugar and dairy free--so good!! http://chocolatecoveredkatie.com/2012/01/09/better-than-nutella/

You just have to learn to love vegetables, lots of them. As in eating veggies (cooked and fresh) by the pound! You will get filled up, and even though low-calorie, eating veggies and fruits is an extremely nutrient dense way to eat/good for you. And doable for 4-6 weeks to jumpstart your fat loss. It is essentially the…

So I feel sexier! And am faster on my bike.

I thought this was about food. Like, chronically having a cheat item every day, like pizza/beer/cake.
