  • Add me!!! 5’4” 180 with 30 to lose to GW
  • Make sure you're getting enough vitamins and nutrients with a multivitamin and maybe a sugar-free protein shake instead of lunch. Also maybe fasting will work for you. It helps strengthen your mind over eating. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APZCfmgzoS0 I have learned to not trust my hunger queues. They go off after I've…
  • I feel ya! Breastfeeding baby #4 and I know the weight always comes off me eventually, but it doesn’t shed off easily like some other moms claim. I tend to lose weight as my baby gains up to a year, lol. Then when they are on solids I cut back my food intake more, no longer fearing milk supply drop. I just don’t want to…
  • Stopped jogging since I get bad distasis recti. Just speed walking uphill for me!
  • I'm due 12/4... so pretty close to Jan 2018 since I always go over by 2 weeks. Right now I'm at 25 weeks and have gained 20 pounds despite eating only 1.8-2k a day and walking almost every other day. I feel like weight gain is inevitable since I can't diet I just keep putting on pounds. I wonder if its even possible to…
  • 170 prepregnancy weight, at 185 now: 25 weeks pregnant, 5'4"... I'm looking like I'm due any day but I still have 4 more months! Started walking every other morning for an hour, hopefully that slows my gaining down.

  • Hey hoopers! I'm doing a 100 day challenge! Join me!!!
  • I said no to a root beer float before bed!
  • Hey mamas! I'm on baby #3-- I've been successful with weight loss two times before but always falling 20 pounds short of my pre-mommy poundage. I have a 7 week old and also do a billion other things so I'm feeling the time crunch. I need to focus in better nutrition. Please add me! ^.^
  • I have 3 levels of intensity for my hooping just like you'd have 3 intensities of anything. I rely heavily on my FT4 to give me a decent read on it but it averages 450/hour for slow-medium hooping and 600/hour for medium-fast.... fast-fast is about 800/hour otherwise known as "when you start hooping" because as you get…
  • If it has barbed fittings you can add water, sand, or rice to the hoop. Be sure you weigh yourself holding your hoop so you can get an accurate read of how heavy the hoop is. So if its 1lb. 8 ounces and you want a 5 lb. hoop you add 3 lb. 8 oz of water/sand/rice... Anything over 5lb will be really hard to keep up and may…
  • wait 2 weeks of regular exercise to see even a half pound drop off... I'm finally seeing results from my 21 days of hooping and its happening quickly now!
  • I switched to intermittent fasting and have been steadily losing almost 2 pounds a week EATING MORE. My body does better this way as I need to get to fasting mode to kick out the junk so I can break through my plateaus. I calculated my BMR @ 1400 and was eating 1200/day and working out 4 days a week about 350 cals and went…
  • Sorry to hear about your shoulder! One kid out of the house should help with workout time! Can you go for a walk with your daughter while DS is in preschool? Not sure if your girl is anything like mine but OH MAN do they like some of those at-home zumba/exercise videos. Throw it on and watch them shake to the music, its…
  • friendly! If he lost 105 lb he was probably big before and big people are almost always nice, must be desire to make friends or something? I have always been big/nice so maybe just using my own experience.
  • I want to drop 15 lb. by Christmas.... with a caloric deficit of around 5600 I should get there a week early
  • I've been there! Cut the junk food out (21 day no junk food fast group on here will help) then you can award yourself 1-2 a week. Your calories should be 90% whole, healthy nutritious food and only 10% empty. And to lose weight you drop the empty entirely to see results. Also there is a mindset that needs to be established…
