Oops i thought i posted on here a while ago. Guess not! Hey, i go by MJ on here and our baby forum. I have used mfp for years, on and off. I have been successful and gotten to my target weight in the past. Problem was i didn't realize that war my target weight. I always wanted to lose "just a little more". Now i realize i…

I looked into this a little bit because i didn't want to hurt my milk supply. I eat more calories now than when i was trying to lose weight before. I pretty much eat "maintenance" and then no extra (or very little) for bf. That gives me like 1800 cals for a 5'4 woman. But I'm no expert. I'm also not logging my food every…

Thank you. Yes, my baby doesn't like to go to bed but once in bed she regularly gives me 8-11 hrs of sleep, only getting up once. Sure can't complain!

Haha yup. Dumb but entertaining :tongue:

Ty for all the fr so far. Would love more friends to join me

Click on persons name and then click it again when u see the "send message" option. This will take u to their info where u can send friend request. Hope that makes sense.

I used an online calculator to find out how many calories i needed as a bf mom. My girl is 8 weeks. :) feel free to add me as a friend. They say you should not limit calories for the first 2 months while your milk supply is getting established.

Bump! Thanks for the great info :smile:

Sounds awesome! Bump!:smile:

Hi Mary, I have been logging for a little better than a couple of months. I always welcome more friends :smile: I try to be supportive, even if its dropping a quick encouragement when you complete your food diary. I personally love this encouragement and do my best to do it for others! Please feel free to add me…

This sounds delish! Bump!

There is no easy answer to this question, because everyone has a different motivator. However, I would not tell you to "get over it" because like you, I can fret over things for a very long time, and have a difficult time just "forgetting about it". One big thing that helped me was exercise. Exercise is especially good if…

Bump! Love all the ideas for a quick, filling and nutritious shake!! :D

I have also worked with people with disabilites. I have nothing, i repeat nothing, against people with disabilites ( I was raised in a home with therapeutic foster children) I was not at all trying to be rude, but it is very awkward to have someone thrusting their junk at you, and to know that his mom is two rows back and…

I have to say, many of the things that I have been reading on this thread I agree with.. however.. I only get mildly annoyed with those things.... The worse: Being in zumba class and having a guy come and stand half a foot away from you... now ok... thats already annoying.... but then when you do any sort of "thrusts" or…

Bump - love all these great sounding oatmeal recipes/ideas! :D

bump! Looks great :)

http://www.zumbacalories.com/ I used this website to calculate mine. You enter your weight, time frame and your intensity level. I know using a HRM is best, but I don't have one. Good luck. Ps. I love Zumba! So much fun :)

Everyone is probably going to give you a different answer... I try to eat back about half (some days a bit more) of my exercise calories. Some people eat them all back, I just find that is a lot of food and I do like losing weight at a slightly higher rate. If you find you hit a long plateau you may want to consider…

Bump :)
