1. check on the baby 2. use bathroom/wash hands 3. take pill, multivitamin with water.

It is nice to see how different people think about the cheat days...some of ya are oppossed, some live for it, some just call it something else.

that sounds very much like what I was planning.

in food i believe there are various breastfeeding options to choose from. i know weird its in food but it is. i am ebf with a five month old and am just using 1800 calories as my goal. I have been thinking I might change it so the bf comes out of the exercise but I want to make sure I eat the calories for my babie(400-500)…

yesturday I had a friend tell me I couldnt' have a certain sandwich anymore because of the calories. I informed her that I could as long as I didn't get the fries or pop to go along with it and I would still be under my calories for the day. It can be obnoxious to get input but it can also be small talk for some people I…

went to arbys today and had a market fresh sandwich. I figured it would be 500 or so....it was 700. Thankfully I had only taken two or three bites when I realized this. I slowed down my eating and stopped after half. I did eat the whole thing, but I made sure I really wanted it and wasn't just eating it because it was…

I honestly havn't found it difficult. I think maybe the extra calories I'm getting from breastfeeding are keeping me more energized.

I started at 235 and am 5 8

me too!!! accountability!

good job! you look wonderful!

Thanks guys. It just says pushing a stroller. I would think the speed and also the weight..ie how many kids are in the stroller would make a difference.

yes...take your own food.

I ate at my parents house the other day and after asking a bunch of questions about what my mom put in everything, I asked for a 1/4 cup measuring cup and used it to measure what I put on my plate.

If I eat a larger meal then I feel sick now...that's enough pain, I don't add guilt as well.

do you get much calcium?

Some swear by their cheat days for overcoming plateaus. Once in awhile they might eat a thousand or more calories than usual and it seems to work. With your allergies, it could take some research to find some higher calorie yet nutrient rich food.

You COULD put a lock on your fridge and cupboards so you have to unlock and therefore give yourself more time to think about what you are doing.

that was really what I needed today...thank you!

i completely agree, I'd rather own a bicycle than a car.

I added about 600 calories to my total calories for the day because 300 was not enough and I was getting dizzy. I am now aiming for around 1850 a day with ebf. I added a bit extra because I am ebf my almost 5 month old but I have an older daughter who also will have bm every so often.

I was only allowing 300 cals for ebf. I will up that. and I think i should not have skipped my morning snack...ty

It sounds like a combination to make you throw up imo.

I'm just really excited to be drinking the water I should because I know it is making my body function properly and keeping kidney stones farther away!
