  • Friend me! I had my baby in August. I know what you mean about having a fussy baby! What I have been doing for exercise is an app for Apple products called Fit Star. I can do exercises on my phone or ipad and pause it at anytime to take care of the baby. It really helped me get started again. I have finally moved into the…
  • You may actually need to eat more calories. The MFP estimate for what I should be eating was off, my nutritionist upper my calories and it really helped me (I don't feel hungry and I am losing weight slowly). As for MediFast it's just like other diets of that nature, it will cause you to drop the weight fast but as you…
  • Thanks everyone! The little one arrived Sunday morning and I have been working hard at establishing my supply. The Lara Bars you mentioned I saw at the store and grabbed a couple to try. They are SUPER yummy and I can't believe how good and natural they are :)
  • One of my favs is a Mushroom, Tomato Scramble (but you can make it an omelet). I do use olive oil to sautee minced onion then chopped mushrooms (substitute the oil to cut down on the fat). After they have cooked down I add canned diced tomatoes (completely drained!). I let it cook down to almost a paste before mixing in…
  • I'm 5'9" and back when I was a kick boxer I was 170 and very lean. I think it comes down to muscle composition. When I dropped to 155 i looked sick! Then again lots of girls my height look good at 155 and under. My nutritionist felt 170 was a great weight for me, if you are considered talk to one and have them do an…

  • When I was fit I was an hourglass, I carried weight well and had a small waist, now that I'm umm MUCH bigger I have a more of an oval shape lol XD
  • I take fish oil, vitamin d (this helped me SOOOO MUCH), and superB complex. I didn't notice it right away but withing a few weeks I noticed I didn't need naps/feel sleepy and felt much happier.

  • I'm 5'9" and my goal is my old healthy weight of 170.I have a large frame so even when I was 225 people thought I was no more than 180. Anything under 170 I looked sick, though a lot of it had to due with muscle mass. That was when I was 19, I'm 25 now so I may not have the "build" anymore once I hit 170 :) We will see!
  • I've been off/on WW since 2005, I had a lot of success when I started, then I got sick from my at the time undiagnosed thyroid disease. I gain everything I lost BACK and MORE! I know the program works, even picked up the new one at the end of May but for me I think it has come down to a mind set. I kept trying to do WW…
  • She is raging psychological warfare on you ~ its called emotional abuse to be blunt. My fiance married and eventually left a women like that (though she wasn't thin or pretty, she was and still is very fat and very unhappy). She would break up with him and run off to slept with other people then come back and tell him how…

  • Back when I was thinner and had dropped 25 lbs I took a week vacation with my mom to the beach. She purchased a pack of donuts for breakfast to last us LOL but somehow I managed to lose weight that week. My advice, keep up your walking! I was able to walk 1-2 hours each day and swim when we hit the beach. Aside from that I…

  • I'm in! Today will be 'Day 1' for me (I like starting on Mondays for things lol), I've done it once or twice when I got the DVD (about a month or so ago) but now that I'm out of college and settled in my job I have time to get started right!
  • I have Hashimoto's disease (and thus hypothyroidism with bouts of hyperthyroidism). I use armour thyroid and it has made my life livable again unlike when I was on synthroid. Armour has allowed me to at least stop gaining weight but as it coming off I found I need to avoid certain food (seems like everything) and exercise…
