I'm in the same boat. I lost mine suddenly less than a month ago. I gained 6lbs, so I went back to square one, it sucks, but that's how it went with me. Still not thinking clearly yet, but a little better. I know my Daddy would hate for me to just sit around a mourn all the time, so trying to get back on the path for him.

In the same boat, but not stressing :) I eat alot of soup... quick, cheap, portable ( put some in my thermos) it has some Chicken Bouillon Cubes ~$2 for a jar of them (makes 3-4 pots of soup) and a few different, random veggies...today is carrots, green beans, and lentils. One pot will last me 2-3 days. I know its high in…

I am addicted to Ranch, I could eat it with everything...so I make my own with Greek Yogurt and a Hidden Valley dry ranch dressing packet :) not the lowest sodium option, but you can adjust it to your taste and it adds a bit of protein. and it is pretty low on calories. I add 410ml of greek yogurt and 15g of the packet, it…

I was the same way last year when my little girl went to Kindergarten....I panicked, went and bought all name brand stuff for her so I would feel like she would "fit" in, lol, I was a stressed, snappy mess....and I REALLY disliked her teacher, Me and my daughter personally made her gift for Christmas, and she didnt even…

Family of 6 here ( ages 2,5,6,9 and me and SO) and we spend about $500 a month. And that include the 2x a month that we eat out somewhere....Toiletries are less $100 for all of us :)

I haven't weighed myself in over a year. My husband pointed out that I was addicted to it one day when we had "a talk" about my weight loss, and he was upset stating that I was "more than a number" on that scale, and I would be weighing myself 5-10 times a day....so out the door it went! and I honestly feel alot less…

Ummm...my eyes? maybe? and my Crafty-ness! Oh, and I make some super cute babies..lol

SW: 194 SS: 16 CW: 144 CS: 9/10 GW: 135 GS: Would like to fit comfortable in a 6ish..lol I am 5'4 and had a baby 7 weeks ago, so my weight is in my middle :(

In the same boat :/ the same exact boat. lol I have upped my calories to 1500 (that I have to force myself to eat because I forget) and within 2 days I dropped .2lbs..lol but I was at the same exact weight for weeks...so I was happy...so I am going to very gradually increase my calories by 100 or so maybe every week until…

Krispy Kremes are my weakness too....and SO brings them to me when we fight....I think they are made with crack...I just cannot say no to them! But SO isnt on board with my weight loss...kinda makes me sad...He thinks that I am getting healthy so I will leave him (which is definitely not the case) and it makes him insecure…

Fellow 5'4er..lol :drinker:

Pants are supposed to fit in both directions?!?!? I'm in! 5'4 with 15 more lbs to go!

I go to one...but I just get the B shots for energy. I could go to walgreens and get one....but I go to the clinic to use them...they have awesome scales/body fat tools....so I always know my body fat % and BMR and all that stuff.

just keep it to walking for a few more weeks....trust me....I started working out at 3 weeks and pulled something and thought I was dying (not really, it just really hurt, lol).... just walk, maybe with some dumbells or something....and I am still jiggly too, but only in my belly and its driving me crazy! hoping it will go…

Yup, Fenugreek made me feel like a walking pancake....but didn't really help my supply :( and I got it in pill form 3 pills 3x a day...9 pills a day just about killed me! I hate taking pills. When I eat oatmeal I put some flaxseed in it, and also take flaxseed oil 3x a day...seems to work better for me and it adds DHA to…

< Fat kid. I was 150 lbs at the age of 12 and 4'11.....I am now double that age and under that weight :) Oh...and about half a foot taller..lol

Havent quite got the calorie thing figured out yet...I have been eating 1200, obviously not enough because I am not losing weight....so I am upping my caloried to 1400-1500 to see if that helps get me out of this rut! and those shakes really do nothing for me in terms of appetite...I have to have FOOD..lol....and soups…

Mine will be 6 weeks on Wed :( they grow too quick! Anywho, the hunger just started to hit me yesterday with the breastfeeding thing....I wanted to eat everything in the kitchen! Protein curbs appetite, keeps you fuller for longer....so I stocked up on protein bars, greek yogurt, etc...and it seems to be helping....and…

I'm trying to find that balance too! My DD was born 9/12/12, and I have another girl 4, and 2 stepsons 4,7

I gained 18 during pregnancy, and lost 28 by the time she was 3 weeks old...now I have 15 to get to my "goal" weight, and its not budging :(.... She was 8lbs5oz, so she was a chunk...and I was really puffy and pumped full of fluids, so I bet most of that was water

Mine will be 6 weeks on Wed....time sure does fly! I havent been cleared yet, but I have been working at it anyways... and I still dont have the calorie thing quite figured out....I have been eating low, and I havent lost any supply, but stopped losing weight a few weeks in....so I am goin to up my calories and try to…

Hi :) WTF are net calories...lol and do I really need to eat my exercise calories back? I have been eating 1200ish calories a day, hit the gym for an hour or so 6 days a week, and stopped losing completely...Do I need to eat more, I have a hard time eating the 1200 calories as is (my problem is not eating enough, then…

I busted my butt everyday for 2-3 hours a day during those 3 months! lol then found out I was pregnant....and here I am 9 months later..Luckly I look the same and am 6 lbs under that last picture and my daughter is 5 weeks....now I have to tone and lose 15 more lbs.....its harder than it used to be!

Thanks....did that all in 3 months...I was pretty proud of myself too...now for this last 15 lbs:grumble:

I am hippy, but I started off bigger everywhere, lol and I'm not "there" yet :)

I have a 5 week old :) and I eat protein....lots of protein....and protein bars (they are sweet) but I wouldnt worry about your calories just yet. wait until you have established a good milk supply (around 4 weeks) to worry about calories. Water and Chewing gum are your friends... but seriously...I have a whole cabinet…

I had my baby in September too :) she is 4 weeks today... (via c-section) and I have been walking since about 2 weeks pp, and just started hitting the gym (very lightly) a week ago... I gained 20 lbs, and since then have lost almost 30....weight is falling off quick, but my body definitely needs some work! and about 15 lbs…

My baby is 4 weeks today! Still not cleared to do anything hardcore, but started it early anyways! Welcome!

My SO doesnt like thin women either :/ he even got me pregnant when I lost a bunch of weight so I would gain weight back...wouldnt change it for the world, I have a beautiful 4 week old, AND I am actually smaller than what I was pre-pregnancy....so his plan backfired..hehehe He is afraid that I will leave him....so now we…

I got the pooch....ugh... baby is 4 weeks old now, and I was in the best shape of my life before....I am hoping it will go away! and the stretchmarks..ugh...they would be the only reason I would get a tummy tuck.... lol, and I have to add, that while I was typing this, I was indulging in a krispy kreme donut.....so nope,…
