Well first congrats on all your progress! You look great! Second who cares what we think. We do you think? How do you feel?

I'm definitely no expert. But I did look at your food diary. Your sodium in take is really high often. It doesn't look like you are consuming enough protein either. I eating 600 cals probably isn't going to make you feel any better. Have you tried going to the doctors? Having your blood checked making sure you aren't…

Hi Mike actually in the hospital that I went to and was in the ICU with for 4 days I was being seen by a Cardiologist first. That's that hospitals focus. That's why they had me in the ICU for so long because they have wireless monitors and they were monitoring my heart. Nothing abnormal there beside my low blood pressure.…

I will look at them and see if they will be a good fit. I will have to make sure my husband or someone is with me.

They do it here In New York Happy Meal and Mighty meals....

Oh Yes they did an MRI both ER visits. Nothing abnormal with that either. I have nice big file of stuff for got that test : Nope the neurologist said it wasn't epilepsy

I agree! And also the problem with our society is so much bigger than a restaurant! Being a mom for 15 years now I have witnessed some of the dumbest parenting moments from myself and friends. I will stick to food related ones here to stay on topic! Like for example I'm at a family or kids birthday party. The main meal is…

I think they say it takes a person about 18 days of doing the same thing to make the change stick. Maybe that's why they choice 5 weeks? IDK

That's what I am gong to start now. It just stinks to only be able to walk. I don't have a lot of time. I would like to be able to do a full work out and burn a lot more. I'm hoping someone here has had this problem not that I would wish this on anyone! But maybe they found better answers then I have.

Nice post! I in a weird way find it motivating when I see myself in a photo. Because I don't spend anytime in a mirror for one I am busy with family and l life. So it's eye opening to see just how big I have become. I mean you know you have you've gone up in pant sizes, you don't fit so nicely in chairs with handles and…

I was thinking this last night! I haven't been here in a year. And last night reading a lot of posts I find this place discouraging. Not alot of support IDK Maybe I just came across a ton of posts with not helpful or supportive behavior Is this a place to converse with adults about weight loss... Or children about…

I would like to loose 94lbs. Just getting the motivation again to do it. Would love support and to give support!

I was 19. Definitely wait till you have been married for a bit. I don't think the age matters as much as where you are at in your life. Age is definitely just a number especially when it comes to being ready to be a parent. I have friends that are young parents and some are great parents and others aren't. I have friends…

http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/149164-crockpot-pineapple-chicken-80-cal-per-ck-breast This one is good and pretty healthy and no veggies.

Here are my suggests with the example you gave Yesterday 7:00 a.m. Breakfast Eggo Waffles (instead do a whole wheat waffle) Syrup (instead use fresh fruit and neufchatel cheese or peanut butter and some slice banana) Butter (skip the butter) 9:00 a.m. Special K bar (instead hand full of Almonds and a some fruit or veggie)…

My name is Jessica I'm also a stay at home mom for 4 from ages 3-12.

Congrats on losing 46bls that's AWESOME! You sound like one busy momma! I've turned into an emotional eater since having children. I realized my why.... I can't just take off for a walk when I am having a rough day or go for a bike ride to blow off steam. As a mom of young kids it's just easier to eat when you are stressed…

There are many other foods that are just as high in calcium Carrot juice, fresh 57 Fish, canned salmon eaten with bones 440 Fish, canned sardines or mackerel eaten with bones 569 Molasses, black strap 2820, 176.2 per tablespoon Molasses, unsulphured 672, 42 per tablespoon Sesame butter (unhulled sesame seeds) 1022, 63.9…

Go to the doctors and get blood work and talk to them about nutrition. They will tell you what you deficient in and tell you foods high in those foods.

I'm 5'9 and want to be 145-140

An apple, banana, or orange

Well I lost a pound this weekend so maybe I didn't do to horrible. Maybe all the stressed burned calories? Or maybe the constant running up and down the stairs and around the rink. But I feel like I was hit by a truck I'm so tired...maybe it's the mono I'm hoping I'm not still sick but I don't get my blood work till next…

I think everyone's body is different and people gain weight first in certain areas and that typically is the slowest place to loose the weight from my experience. Maybe start tracking your measurements from neck to calves and that will help you see where that weight is changing KWIM?

WTG you look great!

Thanks for all the advice. I went to see one surgeon back in the beginning of August. I don't think I will go to him for the surgery just because he was so carefree like cutting me wasn't a big deal and shouldn't be to me. I'm not one to get things like this done and honestly it flips me out thinking about it. But I am so…

I dream of the day I can just walk into any store and buy a bra the right size and be able to wear a top that fits and isn't huge everywhere but my bust line. The recovery is one of the reasons I haven't gotten it done yet I have young children that like to be picked up. Also I want to loose my weight so I don't find…

As far as how many calories you burn doing exercise the only way to get the closest accrue measure is to use a heart-rate monitor and set it for your build. The stuff on here is just a general idea it's not 100% on the dime.

Yes Sodium is a huge problem. The max you should have a day is 2500 more then that it will harden your arteries, it starts to block your bodies ability to absorb potassium which if you are deficient in potassium it can cause your muscles to not work ie heart, and diagram being the most important ones. It also causes you to…

That depends on the week. Some weeks are tight. But when I shop I am trying not to be junk and just healthy mostly fresh and raw foods and less processed junk. That always helps give me the healthiest options available. I'm just getting back on the wagon so this is new to me again :)
