oh yeah, and i take the normal multi vitamin, vita d and omega 3 supplements

I take resveratrol. You can get them at walmart. They work good for me...energy wise and on days where I do have a massive appetite and eat too much...it seems to help me not gain any weight from it...like over thanksgiving I ate horrible 3 days in a row, way over my cals...but didnt gain an ounce. Didnt lose, but didnt…

I know how to lose weight...I lost over 100 pounds 7 years ago. Eating 1200 cals a day and exercising a few days a week, light exercise like walking. And no...I didnt gain back the weight because i ate too few cals and lost weight the wrong way. I gained some of it back because of a difficult few years and having 3…

That depends...161 is still overweight for 5' 7" but not if you have alot of muscle...then 161 might be perfect.

Lol...that is awesome! Your right though, kids dont know how to lie yet or realize why lying (like about weight) is sometimes needed LOL. When my ex's 6 year old son poked my back fat roll (years ago when I first started my weight loss journey) and said whats this bump...and poked it, and said ewww its fat! It kinda hurt…

and happy birthday by the way! My 30th is dec 2nd! Oye...

Good luck...and your not alone! This is my second time around as well. I was 220 most of my life...after a very abusive relationship I decided to never let anyone treat me that way again...of course his main target of mental abuse was my weight and how im so fat nobody would ever want me but him. At 21 I took charge of my…

Oh yeah thats one thing I forgot to answer before. I thought about getting a night job to make some money so he can watch our girl and wont have to pay a sitter...but theres a problem with that. He is on call once every 2 weeks for 7 days. So if he gets a call to go in to work and im working and he has our daughter were…

Thanks :) thats alot of posts to read! To the one who said hes a supervisor we should be able to afford repair men...Ill give you a list Do you know how much repair men cost? Do you know how much a mortgage costs? And do you know how much a supervisor makes? How much it costs to raise a baby? Lets see...im not giving out…

I know how to manage a household, but its no vacation. Maybe it was easier because you were in the army and were glad to be out. Or maybe you had money to be able to get out of the house once in a while, or your husband treats you good so its easy for you to be at home and happy. I dont have any of those...all I see is…

Seriously? For one...I havent the slightest clue how to fix a leaky pipe, or electrical issues and would end up causing more trouble by trying to fix things that I have no clue about. Secondly id love to know how its a luxury to be a stay at home mom? Were you sitting on your *kitten* all day letting the tv babysit your…

He was in the navy when he was young...right out of high school...and got kicked out at his 3rd year, because he slept with his (pardon me I dont know the correct term other than superior) slept with is wife. Yeah, I didnt know that until his mother told me after we were married a year and she was half drunk one night and…

Actually...I cook 2 seperate dinners. Hes healthy and doesnt need to diet and has no interest in healthy foods. So I cook him his dinner and me my healthy dinner.

Also...to answer one post, im not perfect. No you dont know his side, i agree there is always two sides to the story. I always always try my best to talk polite to him...I try not to yell or cuss, even before our child, but especially because of her now. Most of the time now I just shut up because i dont want to provoke…

Thanks for the advice everyone. To the ones who said about wanting my daughter treated that way, your right...no way in hell! When I did set down and talk to him about these things, I mentioned those things. A daughter will grow up to seek a man like there father, she will probably pick up his behavior and attitude, would…

From a guys perspective...or a woman whos been there...do you think maybe showing him this thread and the answers to it will make him realize what hes doing or would it just piss him off? I think the latter probably...

YES...and Ive told him this before. But again, he thinks im putting him down and telling him hes a horrible husband and father. I dont know how else to word things with him to make him not think that!

Sadly I do know he wont change...And he might have been the same before the baby. But we didnt have any responsibilities starting out our relationship and marriage for me to find out. We lived in an apartment for a few years before we bought our house...So there wasnt anything for him to do for me to know he was this way…

LOL...I mean about me. Ive seen some advice threads where people really ream out the person asking advice, so I was hesitant to put it up...but figured id go into it expecting some backlash!

On 1200 cals a day (the weeks I dont snack at night) I lose about 1-2 lbs a week average. I dont really feel like I do much, I mean I clean, do laundry cook etc but not every day (accept the cooking) And i dont really have to run after her constantly, shes not walking yet. We mostly sit in her playroom and play with toys.…

I have heard about that recently...was wondering if it acutally did what it claimed because ive tried alot of things that dont do what they claim!

Yes I track those...I always get double the amount of fiber and at least 100g of protein. Carbs I try to stay around 80-100 and I never eat carb foods with dinner like potatoes rice etc, I eat all my carbs for breakfast lunch and snacks. I eat heathy snacks in between meals too. My dinner is 1/3 protien adn 2/3 fresh…

LOL...Yes I watch tv in the evenings. but not until...around 7 or 8. UMM Hmmm...I think you might have hit something there! i dont watch tv at all, all day. Dont want my girl raised in front of a tv so its always off. Until my husband comes home that is...and im busy cooking dinner etc then when I finally sit down after my…

No im not breastfeeding. Shes almost 9 months. I did for afew months but had alot of trouble so went to formula

Nope...A few months back after reading an article on here about splenda I cut it out completley! Scared me LOL...So I havent been using artificial sweeteners for a few months now. And I did get rid of all my "low fat" "Light" "low sugar" things because they all contain artificial sweeteners. I have mostly started eating…

I dotn know why...not bored, its not stress eating etc. Im perfectly content and happy at night. I eat 1200 a day. Which is what MFP reccomended for me to lose 1 1/2 lbs a week. I have a sedentary lifestyle since im a stay at home mom.

As one previous poster said, potassium isnt always a labled nutrient in products even though it does contain potassium. I had this same concern a few months back, So went to my dr to check my vitamin and potassium levels. She said she has hardly ever seen anyone with a potassium deficiency. Sure enough, even though MFP was…

WOW...Same here :) I thought I was the only crazy one...or wait maybe I still am...I got married 3 weeks after realizing he was the one! And he still is...we just had our 5 year anniversary, had a little girl in march and are still happy! we beat the odds!

LOL...I was just getting ready to write OP asked for advice...if you dont want to offer advice just go the hell away instead of acting childish and downing somebody! As for the advice...I dont have much accept do what your heart tells you. It might hurt the kids, but they will get over it and turn out great im sure! My…

made me think of the ***** cat song... me? dirty, nahhh your hearing things!
