Have you ever heard of *the belly fat cure* ? Its a book/program.... Sounds like another *fad* diet.... but the man who made this up, Jorge Cruise, teaches you how to keep your sugar UNDER 15 GRAMS a day..... I tried this diet for awhile, and did lose alot of wgt, but it really messed with my sugar levels.... anywaaays, my…

Wow, reading this is making me hungry and sick at the same time, LOL....... Where to begin...... my weakness was Nacho Doritos and regular sour cream...... Not just 1 serving, but I would demolish an entire bag, BIG BAG, and an entire container of sour cream in one sitting. When I started eating healthy, I tried the Baked…

Wow, everyone has such great ideas about getting off soda... I drink Caffeine-Free Diet Coke, id say about 3 to 4 cans a day..... Thats been something I cant seem to stop. I renently went to Caffeine free a couple months back and now I can sleep so much better!! I feel better too, less headaches :) I just cant seem to get…

Flat Out Wraps! Theya re so good! Loaded with good stuff too for about 100 cal's :)

Love this, and couldn't agree more..... Great Post, Thankyou!!!!

Stay @home with 3 kids as well.... (4 if you count the husband :laugh: ) This website is amazing!!!!

I have an elliptical and LOVE IT. Its helped me lose almost 30 lbs.... Its a great workout and you burn a ton of calories.... It is also better for me (esp when I was heavier) to not run on the treadmill/outside..... the impact of 222 lbs on my knees/ankles was HORRIBLE. Thats just my opinion!! Good luck!! :flowerforyou:

Thats so true.... it FEELS like a diet now!! Thankyou!!!!!!

Thankyou so much for this!!

Thank you so much everyone for your advice and words of encouragement! I guess I never really looked at *7 lbs in 2 months*.... It seemed to FALL OFF so quick in the beginning, so when it slowed down, I got really down on myself.... I needed to hear all of this, I DON’T want my new pants getting tight on me…. I know how…

LOL this sounds funny, but when I give my youngest daughter a bath I would usually sit on the toilet lid..... well..... 30 lbs ago the lid would cave in!!! :laugh: Then one day a few weeks ago I was sitting on the lid again watching her play in the tub, and I noticed it didnt cave in! It was a happy moment..... hehe :heart:

Lots of fiber..... You can find it in may different foods, if i have a sanwhich i use 'flatout' flat breads.... i believe have 8 or 9 g of fiber.... cereals rich in fiber are good also..... but drink lots of water!!! It will help the fiber flush out your system!

I try to walk but this last one was really rough for me. I walked maybe once during it.... I just keep eating well and try not to let the cravings take over.... and lots of H20!! It seems the day it ends or day after I drop a couple pounds..... I get really horrible cramps so its hard to get the energy to workout.

Love this!!!!

Glad you posted this topic. I have been having the same problem after I go walking/jogging. I never even thought about doing squats.... I will give that a shot! Good luck to you, Hope you start feeling better!!! :flowerforyou:

How is your Iron?? You may be anemic? Ive been most of my adult life, but when ever I start to work out, I seem to get worse.... I started taking iron supplements, seems to work...... :flowerforyou: good luck!

Started back in Oct, I was size 18...... current I am a 12...... goal size would be 7/9! I was in 9 before I had kids!! lol

oops i wrote this from my hubs profile, LOL

WOW!!! You look great!!! And HAPPY! Great job! Very inspirational :flowerforyou:

I took a peek at your food diary, I noticed you eat oranges? I used to get migrains several times a week, after going to a doc, and keeping a food diary, I found out I was 'allergic' to orange! They triggered my headaches. Even the smell turns into a headache. Just a thought, maybe worth looking in to?

Thats what it sounds like to me as well. I have to drink at least a bottle of water before I work out..... and during..... and after.... I used to get bad headaches during workouts and after. The water seemed to really help! Good luck!!

AGREE!

LOL! Too funny :laugh:

YUM! This sounds really good, ill have to try this..... i have been craving pizza latley!

Good for you! That is great! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

woooohoooooooooooooo!!! Good for you!!!! I am so proud of you! And You look great!!! I saw the pics on fb witht he kiddo, great job!!

I dealt with this too after when I got preg with my first child. I even had a "friend" tell me, " wow your social life is going to go to s***, is it worth it??" YES!!!!! I just realized those people were never good friends to begin with, and anyone worth having around my daughter, would have been behind me no matter what.…

You look amazing!!!! Great job! Such an inspiration!!!

Also, I have 3 egg whites, fat free cheese and instead of regular bacon, I use Hormel, or oscar myer Real Bacon Pieces... (salad dressing area) 25 calories, 1.5g of fat, just rnough for that bacon flavor... so good :)
