I hear you!!! I just got so tired of focusing on the numbers!!! I thought for a second there I was going to go crazy! With me what I have found really helps is not focusing so much on calories but writing down everything that goes into my mouth and an estimate of the protein value for each meal. I try to aim for 100 to…

I haven't checked this in a while but I got you all added!! Thanks for all of the requests!! :)

YAY!!!! GREAT Post!! I just started eating TDEE - 20% about 5 weeks ago. Down two pounds!! I eat about 2300 calories (some days 1800 and some days 2600 :) and am no longer concerned with the scale at ALL!! I will weigh myself once a month just out of curiosity but if I only lose 1 pound a month I will be thrilled because I…

Awesome!! all added!! :)

Thanks so much girls!!! Added you all :)

Thanks so much ladies!!! Just added you both!!!

I agree!!!! I have been listening to their podcast for a month now and it is LIFE CHANGING!!! I am obsessed and have realized now the damage I have done to my body over the last year. Like someone said above everyone is going to be different. My BMR is 2300 at exercising 3-5 times a week (moderate). What they suggest is…

Just sent you a request!!

Awesome!!! will add!! :)

Wow!! Thanks again for all the responses!! :)

Thanks everyone!!!

Thanks!!! will do!!! :)

WOW!!! You have done GREAT!! It definitely sounds like you were one of the lucky ones too that breastfeeding has "worked" for as far as weight loss! ha! Yes, it does get so much easier, I promise! You can adjust or "train" your boobs to only produce milk during a certain time so after 6 months when your baby starts eating…

It gets better!! I promise :) I did this same thing too! What REALLY helps me is setting the alarm on my ipod touch and running for 20 or 25 minutes away from my house. Then I have NO CHOICE but to run the same distance back to my house. Also I like beating my time by a minute or so running back. Disclaimer: I despise my…

Welcome to the group!!

Hey There Candy!! Welcome to the group!! Feel free to add me as well! I also realizing the hard way that I can NOT do this on my own. Definitely need HIS help through this long journey :)

HAHA!!!!

Awww!! Thank you guys so much for the great tips!!! I love them all, and *sigh* as disappointing as it seems now I think you all are right. I'm going to focus on the finish instead of the time. I ran a 5K about 18 months after I had my first child. The adrenaline rush was nearly that of actually having a child!! So yeah, I…

Awesome tips!! I especially love the smiling one :)

That is a HUGE accomplishment!!! I am so proud of you and happy for you!! With my first I only made it to 10 weeks :( So sad but WAYYY busy life then! Now with my son who's 8 months I'm still going strong and will continue until he weans himself!

What a great post!!! This is JUST what I needed to read today :) thank you!!!!

Good to know! it sounds like not a lot of people are taking this for that purpose...

thank you for sharing!

You look AMAZING!!!!!! And so so happy!!!

Dr. oz says to mix it with grape juice or OJ. I do both and it takes away the taste. I started taking it religiously 2 months ago only because it is proven to boost your immune system. I have caught the cold twice and have been able to completely kick it within one day. I swear by this stuff!!

Great job!!! You look so genuinely happy!!

you look amazing!!!!!!!!!!! great job!!!!!!!!!!

Hey There!! I have suffered from this in the past as well and honestly the subconscious mind is such a *****!! haha!! Sometimes it takes a few weeks for you to discover the root of why you are getting night panics. I get them a few times a year and when I do, I basically just shut down as much as I possibly can in life and…

all I can say is just keep going!! It doesn't feel like it now but what you are doing for your baby is so much more important than the weight loss. I felt the exact same way a few months ago... I felt like the weight was just never going to come off but honestly from what people tell me on here and from what I have…

Aw! I know how you feel!! What has helped me is the saying "It takes 21 days to make a habit" When I first started this lifestyle change, my goal was to be under my calories, and do moderate exercise every day for 21 days. It feels like a long time when you're in it but once it is done you will feel SO much better. Once…
