Hello! My last pregnancy I maintained the whole way through because when I got pregnant I was already overweight. Now that I'm considered to be "normal weight" ( I hate that term) my OBGYN wants me to gain 25-35 pounds and honestly, it's terrifying. I worked so hard to lose all the extra weight and now I'm supposed to just…

Hello all! I have one amazing little man at home who's 4 now (4?! When did that happen?) and I am currently 11 weeks into growing my new tiny human. My goal is to try and gain at a steady and healthy rate through the pregnancy. My OBGYN said she wants me to gain 25-35 pounds which frankly is terrifying to me. With my last…

I would definitely add in coconut oil to your tea or coffee in the morning, it'll help fill you up and is nothing but good for you fat!

Hello :) My name is Sam and I've also struggled with binge eating and obesity through my whole life. Sometimes it's just easier to eat than to deal with emotions and problems. Feel free to add me

I have the same struggle, especially after going from a very active job to a desk job. I've found a good way to combat the boredom eating is to eat things that are low in calories. I'll take baby carrots and cut them in half so it feels like a lot more food than it is. Or celery or anything else that I can nibble on. I've…

I'm in! 5'3" HW:200 CW: 158 GW:130 Getting married in October so I'm hoping to get at least to 135 by then.

The withdrawal from the salt and the sugar is the absolute worst, I remember it all too well :( But once you get through it and stick to it, you'll be amazed how much better you feel! The first couple of weeks are the worst but if you stick with it you'll be so happy you did!

We make homemade protein bars for breakfast, mostly because we're normally in a rush to get out of the house in the morning! This week the protein bars have been made of peanut butter, rolled oats, honey, banana chips and dried cranberries! It tastes like a delicious PB&J! You can also add other things like flax seed (You…

I love her writings... Have you read Bonk? It's awesome

I'm listening to The Nest and reading the 6th book in the Sword of Truth series!

My food is syncing from MFP to the jawbone, but none of my steps are making it back from my jawbone to mfp. It's incredibly frustrating. Help?

Because I insulted her sunglasses :/

Stay!

Bump for recipes!

I've lost the fats and oils the average American eats in a year!

What an ignorant thing to say on so many levels.

I had my binges under control for a while and this last month everything seems to have gotten away from me and I'm having a hard time reigning it in. I have found a definite correlation between not going to the gym as often and my binging. The gym helps me keep my mind in the game and my endorphins up and I think the…

Makoce, If you don't mind me asking, how tall are you?

Her tattoos are fake :o

A 10 for that lollipop!

If you have a crockpot you can make darn near anything with chicken! Chicken and salsa, or veggies, or orange juice and sesame seeds or cream and mushrooms or chicken tacos... its pretty much an add-random-crap-and-come-back-a-few-hours-later miracle!

The biggest thing would be to make sure that you're eating enough to let your body lose the weight. I did a lot of research on how much breastfeeding burns in calories and the general consensus seems to be that for each 1 ounce of breastmilk you make it takes about 5 calories. It doesn't seem like a lot- and certainly not…

I've never fallen, but LORDY nothing makes me fart like the elliptical machine. I don't know what it is but it just jiggles out the gas CONSTANTLY. Nothing is more embarrasing then letting one loose and having a handsome stranger decide to use the machine next to you....:embarassed:

Lavander

bump for later

I'm almost 5'3 and 138 pounds (on a good day) and wear between a 8-11 depending on the store. Like all the other ladies said, it all comes down to body type.

Stay

I'm 34 weeks pregnant and have gained about 13 pounds so far. My doctor suggested that I gain between 25-35 pounds over the course of the pregnancy which really surprised me because I'm 5'2 and started at 155 pounds which is still considered overweight. The doctor seems happy with the 13 pound weight gain and said that I…
