  • Lentils and a glass of water. I find if I make lentil loaf for dinner my guts will definitely be gurgling by morning
  • I sometimes will drink a protein shake because I work straight 6 hour shifts at work in my two breaks are spent pumping for my son. I have a weird thing where I don't like to eat while I'm pumping so my only option if I want to get protein in is a shake. I like Garden of Life vegan protein powder. my son is allergic to…
  • Congrats on the new little one and the weight loss! a couple of things to consider for your intake goals would be how active you are currently and whether or not you are currently breastfeeding. look up what your total daily energy expenditure would be that's a great step one
  • I've been a binge eater and an extreme restrictor. I have a terrible relationship with self image and some incredibly screwed up body ideals... but at least I am aware right? My motivation now is my son. The thought of him having these horrible thoughts about his amazing little self kills me. I am working hard towards…
  • 4'11 here. Trying to get down to 115-118. Yes it's a very specific number range but when you are little you know the difference just a few lbs makes! Everyone please feel free to add me! I'm here every day... I'm not a super low calorie girl either. I've lost about 20 lbs so far 15 ish left to go!
  • My 7 month old was a c section babe. Hopefully my next delivery is VBAC. Stupid c section. I'm under prepreg weight now but still looking to lose about 15 more
  • Hey there... I'm 4'11 and about to turn 23. I eat 1600 cals a day minimum. If I'm honest I'm almost always over. I had a baby 7 months ago and lost the baby weight down to 130 ish lbs. With breastfeeding I'm burning somewhere between 300-500 cals a day, comparable to someone who works out daily. I chose my calories by…
  • I really want to do [and stick to] 30ds. Why are you trying to lose as much as possible by the 5th? I'm trying to look the best that I can by 7/29 when I see extended family. Don't over work yourself to meet a goal though friend!
  • Oh I LOVE humboldt county! Strongly considered moving there... still deciding on it actually. You can so do it! Lucky luck luck to you
  • Yay! I can't wait to get my next tattoo! I have to find an artist willing to tattoo me while I'm breastfeeding though. Luckily my current job is fine with tats and once I finish school I will work for myself. It'll be exciting when my back is done and I'm confident enough to show it off
  • 1 lb away from pre baby weight at 6 months pp. I've been logging for about 2 months. For the first few months I didn't concern myself with anything but my baby. I'm exclusively breastfeeding and eat 1600 cals a day. I'm also only 4'11 though. Don't push yourself too hard... especially if nursing. Your baby is more…
  • Hi tjere! I just had my son about 6 months ago. For the first trimester you do not need to add any additional calories but I would also not restrict. Find out your TDEE and eat at maintenance. From the second trimester on most providers want to see most women gain about a pound a week. This will vary with pre pregnancy…
  • Trying to lose my baby weight too! My body has changed so much after pregnancy I am NOT a fan. I want to get myself in a healthy relationship with my own body so my son doesn't grow up with all the body and food hang ups I had
  • Hi friendships! I'm here everyday in BLAZING HOT CA. Young new mommy trying to become a strong active mom and to be honest a hot mom haha. I'm here everyday Id love support on here
  • Well hello there! I just had my first baby 4.5 months ago! I am great about starting getting healthy but I've been terrible about keeping to it. I don't want my son to grow up with me obsessing over weight, I want to be able to run and jump with him so here I am going strong and commiting. Add me if you'd like! I love…
  • Brand new mommy here. Little man is 3 weeks. We exclusively breastfeed and I pump when I can to increase supply. I'm not cleared for exercise yet but would love some support
  • Mmmmm carbs... I'm there with you!!! I'm trying to eat better now that I have this brand new baby. I want to be able to be active for him. Feel free to add me :)
  • Hello!! I plan on being a stay at home momma when we have our first little one. Feel free to add me for support :)
  • Yep I check every thing through IIFYM, I found the scooby's one to be a bit high. Or at least it sounded high. I do ballet/jazz 2 times per week and ususally go to the gym one more time during the week. Working on upping my workout more but i have been insanely lazy about it lately
  • pretty sure its open. I'm not the best eater, definitely not the cleanest eater. I'm also terrible at hitting my macros. But i'm honest and I am here every day :) anyone feel free to add
  • Im 4'11 and a quarter. Starting weight was 148. Starting weight on MFP was 145, currently down to 135. My ultimate goal is to cut all the way down to 110ish and let my glycemic reserves or whatever they are called but up to 113-115. The lowest weight of my adult life was 113. I like my body any where from 113 to 117.
  • See that's how I know I've got all the stubborn belly fat is my hip bones frame my lower abs. No one is saying they want to be skeletal and stop eating. Seeing hints of the outlines of certain high bones is a marker in weight loss for many.
  • It's really hard. Even though I know it's insane and I shouldn't care what anyone else thinks, it's hurtful to be typecast because of something you have no control over. I found it particularly hard at work when I felt like I had to completely hide my body to be taken seriously and not get propositioned.
  • my bust measurement changes 1 MAYBE 2 inches with my weight loss . Whether I am 148 or 113. Even if my underbust and every other section of my body slims down the boobies are here to stay from a 32/F to a 30/E. Your boobs are always gonna be big. I tell people that mine may decide to take over Tokyo. I have no real advice…
  • Depression with a huge heaping dose of extreme anxiety here! Along with those friends I get caught up in what I call looped thinking where I obsess over something. Usually its a memory that embarrassed me or something that scares me. I'm here everyday and love having an active news feed. Feel free to add me anyone
  • I would try the TDEE calculator at IIFYM. The Scooby's one says my BMR is 1540 but IIFYM and most other calculators put it around 1400. Also 5 pounds in a month is nothing to be disappointed about! I think weight loss shows have convinced us we should be losing 5 lbs in a week and other craziness
  • Chest fly's and push ups. If you want added core work do push ups on an upside down bosu ball
  • I love creep in on diaries! Helps me keep my food choices in perspective. Mine is open feel free to add me. FYII eat around 1400 kcals a day , I don't currently eat particularly "cllean" I'm horrible at tracking macros and I eat out a lot. I'm definitely not as inspiring as those who eat super lean and hit all their macros.
  • I'm 21 looking lose between 30 and 40 lbs. Thus is my 3rd time on MFP and the 1st time that I'm actually serious about it. I love having friends on here and having an active feed. Mkkes me feel way more accountable.
  • I don't weigh anything really. Sometimes meat but not usually. I don't eat back my excersize cals and try to over estimate all if my food. For example this morning I put 3 TBS of creamer in my coffee and only drank about 2/3 of it, but I still log the 3tbs. It seems to be working so far at least. Now I just need to up my…
