Right here with you. 4th pregnancy, started out smallest I've been since being married, just a few pounds to my pre-marriage weight. Now I'm 30 weeks and already up 35lbs. Looks like I'll have another 45+lbs pregnancy again. This time I'm mad because I worked so hard to reach my goal weight and then started overeating…

Do you think you did something to your heel while running? If so make sure you are not doing a heel strike and check your running form.

Did anyone mention acupuncture? Specifically done to induce labor? I did it with my 3rd, it takes 24 to 48 hours. I did it Monday morning and by Wednesday afternoon I had my baby in my fastest, easiest labor. Another mom about knocked me down at the birth center by opening the door for me b/c waiting to get the name of my…

I'm sorry but I haven't read all the replies so I may be repeating what others have said. You said it yourself, you are addicted to food or addicted to the additives, preservatives, the sugar and everything else the food industry adds to our food to make us addicted. I am guilty of it, too, even though I've learned better.…

NC - No religious exemption in NJ?

I guess I'm super crunchy but don't think of it that way and people probably wouldn't know unless you asked. Since you asked. Three drug-free births with midwives. 1st with Bradley Method, last 2 with Hypnobabies. Extended bf, over 2 1/2 years each. Elimination communication alternating with cloth. Co- sleeping, no vax.…

Good morning! My name is Vickie and this is my surprise 4th! I am in complete shock because I've been using Fertility Awareness Method for about 13 years and never had an accidental pregnancy, my others were very much planned and took several months to get pregnant but I had been noticing my fertile times were much…

Please read this first before choosing Morningstar, Boca Burger, etc. http://foodbabe.com/2012/07/02/think-twice-before-buying-this-type-of-burger/

Give yourself a break, you had a baby. I wish my husband looked as good as you after babies. :wink: Seriouly, great job!

Thank you OP and everyone who answered because this is something I wanted to ask. I trying to figure out when to lift and still continue to run 3x week and swim and bike.

You are beautiful and way to go!!! For those of you that realized your addiction and able to quit; is there any info I can show my husband of the dangers of soda and can really convince him to quit? I can see a lot of his health problems that could be related to soda, bloating, allergies, frequent colds etc. He recently…

Sorry, one more thing. Also i was told my core is weak and my left hip is weaker than my right. I was told i need to work on my core with more planks and bridge poses. Just wanted to give suggestions that didn't have anything to do with your shoes, although yes I think your shoes are too small.

Where are you running? Treadmill only? I've been having a dull ache in my inner left calf for months. Even took a break from running for a month to see if it would heal and it came back once I started running again. I was googling it, trying to find a reason and came across something that mentioned pains on left side…

I think those first few weeks are the hardest. Once you get to that breakthrough you are talking about, it never seems that hard again. I'm half way thru Bridge2 10K now and still piece of cake compared to the few couple of weeks of C25K

Such an inspiration! You look great!

I'm here. :). I looked at your profile, we are close in age and so our our kids. Last year I was in the same position as you. I had lost weight after baby 2 but it was a lot of hard work, exercise and calorie counting. With baby 3 I gained it all right back and hardly any cane off naturally. Almost a year ago I finally…

Congratulations on all your successes!

HOT! HOT! HOT!!!!

Didn't read all the replies. I do agree to talk with your dr, I didn't but ended up having to once I was injured. I understand wanting to run now but I know a lot of people that started off on a elliptical for months before they started to train to run. You will burn calories and strengthen your legs to be ready to run. I…

Gaia - you look great! Everyone does! Please feel free to add me as a friend :)

I don't have any progress pics but my stats are close to yours. I'm 5'3 Started in Feb at 141 1st goal 127 by 4/7 Today I'm 124 I've really slacked off on the dieting and falling back into old habits, I guess I lost a few more by exercise alone. Next goal 117 by 9/9 my bday

Gorgeous!

Have you gone to a chiropractor and/or acupuncturist?

I feel the same way.

Had to change my goal to Sexy by the End of Summer.

That's me! For the past 2 months I haven't lost any lbs or inches. Mainly because I've gotten really slack and slipping back into old habits. My excuse is my daughter was really sick and now I just have a head cold. I need more people to push me and remind me it's only 10lbs!!

I want to come back for ideas too. I'm a vegetarian but a terrible cook. Now that it's spring coming up summer I look forward to eating lots more fresh local fruits and making green drinks. I know one response you are going to get is 1200 cals is to low. Add me as a friend if you want to share recipes.

My biggest problem is not preplanning my meals. If I could just get that in order I think it will stop the eating everything in sight problem i have. I also need to get dinner ready early so I can stay out of the kitchen in the afternoon when i really get bad.

Hi everyone! I started exercising again in August but didn't cut calories and didn't lose any weight even though I was getting stronger. In Feb. I got serious about losing weight too by my 3rd child's 2nd birthday and reached my first goal in April. Since then I have continued exercising but lost motivation on eating well.…

Hi everyone! I haven't even introduced myself yet. This week and last have been bad. Last week my grandfather passed away and I didn't overeat because of emotional eating but because of just visiting family and the funeral and eating the food that it brought when someone passes away. And then my 2 year old picked up a…
