  • I get rid of them as soon as I get new smaller clothes. But then again most of my "fat clothes" are ones that were 4 sizes too big that someone gave me and I wore because at the time I couldn't afford any clothes. Just today I am getting rid of some of them. makes me feel almost sick to see clothes that big hanging in my…
  • It can take up to a year after you get your period back for it to regulate, especially if you are still breastfeeding. Sounds totally normal, even if you weren't losing weight.
  • I had to do this with my toddler, remember that most milk alternatives don't have a lot of protein. Soymilk does, but that depends on whether you want to be eating/drinking a lot of soy products. If you drink almond/coconut/rice milks, make sure you are upping your protein through other sources.
  • Food intolerances and allergies can cause inflamation which doesn't cause FAT gain, but it can cause WEIGHT gain. Your trainer is trying to see if you have problems with certain foods and if so, you can eliminate those foods to help jump start your weight loss. Sounds like you don't have issues with those foods if you've…
  • how is it helpful to tell people who already have kids "don't have kids"? You can't exactly return them to the store... I would say, eat the cookies but make sure and take a walk later, or whatever exercise you can fit in. I've only got one but he's really high needs and my husband is military, so it's been tough. Locking…
  • My husband isn't deployed, but he's in BMT (graduates this month!) and then goes to tech school for the next six months. I'm hoping to lose weight while he's gone because I really want him to be proud of me (it's not my only reason, I want to get healthy this was just my motivation). Good luck with your journey!
  • haha I hope it works that way for me! Been TTC our second baby for 11 months now.
  • I find it interesting that so many people have the combo of Lupus and PCOS, I wonder if there is a link? I've had a lot of the symptoms of Lupus for years but none of the doctors I've been to can ever figure out what's going on.
  • I have a 15 month old and looking to lose about 40 pounds. Yes it's pathetic, but I have only lost five pounds since I had him. None of the rest wants to budge. Feel free to add me!
  • I'm 21 and was diagnosed with PCOS at 15 or 16. I don't take anything for it, I took birth control pills for a year from 16-17 but all they did was mess my body up in horrible ways that I've never recovered from. I've found a supplement that is specifically geared for PCOS, it's called Pregnitude. It's mainly for women…
  • you'd have to eat a lot of ice cream to make 500 calories...I have ice cream almost every day and usually stay under my calories. There's nothing wrong with a treat now and then. Yeah it's not the best choice, but one day won't ruin your "diet".
  • not yet but I bet I will...if I could eat meat (can't due to IBS) I'm sure I would have.
  • crap. can't get the picture to work.
  • I'm 5'8'', highest weight 216 (40 weeks pregnant with my son), current 207, goal 170 or below. I really don't have any comparison pictures, but this is me right now: http://i866.photobucket.com/albums/ab221/dream_me_a_dream/012.jpg I'm hoping to lose enough weight in the next 4 weeks to look good in this dress without my…
  • 5'8'' and goal weight is 170. For some reason people always think I look 20-40 pounds less than I am, and at 155 everyone said I looked too thin. I think 170 is a good compromise.
  • Just started 10 days ago. I'm currently 208 and looking to lose over 40 pounds of baby weight. I would love to help encourage anyone that I can!
  • I'm 21 and struggling to beat PCOS and 45 pounds of post pregnancy weight to look good again...feel free to add me!
  • My husband is in Basic Training for the military and I really want to lose some weight so that when he does the Airman's run at graduation and sees me standing on the sidelines, he can be proud of me. I got pregnant right away after we got married so I feel like he kinda got cheated out of having me at a good weight. I…
