Our girls are small, so we don't really do easter baskets for them yet- I just do one basket for the family (read: hubby and I!) but I do hide some easter eggs around the yard for my toddler to find; then to church; after that, my in-laws for late lunch/early dinner, then to my brothers house for dessert. I make the…

My very first yoga dvd was Gaiam's Yoga for Weight loss with Suzanne Deason, and after 10 years, it's still my favorite routine outside of a class I take saturday mornings.

Am I the only one who noticed this? Personally, I think you should eat a little more and not focus so much on what the scale says. Continue working out, eat well, but eat properly, eat enough to fuel your body, including breastfeeding. Depending how the age of your baby, you can be burning 500 calories just producing milk.…

dude, I totally would have said "so this guy" or "this dude..." hmm. Maybe I've been wrong all this years about being a girl. What's that saying about assumptions?:laugh:

I think so. We fall asleep cuddling (or, until *he* falls asleep) and I have a really difficult time falling asleep without him there. He travels 4-5 times a year to Switzerland, and I am sleep deprived while he's gone. Even if we're angry with each other, I'd still rather be in the same bed than one of us on the couch.

SAHM of a toddler and infant, so (arguably) 15 hour days... but it doesn't feel like work :wink: workout about 6-7 hours a week... probably be increasing now that the weather is nice and will be walking to the park daily.

Short answer? YES. Long answer: it's not always easy, and yeah, many people live their whole lives in a "common law" type marriage; the eternal boyfriend/girlfriend dynamic and are fine with it. The difference between being a lifetime boyfriend/girlfriend and being a spouse is subtle, yet profound. When you're not married,…

People think I'm in my twenties, and don't believe me when I tell them my age. Perhaps I should leave the illusion in place? I attribute it to good genetics (neither grandmother looked their age) and the fact that I'm a ginger, so I very nearly worship sunscreen.

Nothing mediocre about this chick (though I do appreciate what you did there with the quotation marks in the title) An ex once said I'm the perfect mix of girly girl and tomboy. It might have been the best compliment he ever gave me!:wink:

I clicked thinking I was going to find a rant. Instead I found a backhandedly insulting title and post that says more about the OP than he probably realizes, which calls a certain something in the title into question. I also found some responses that made me giggle. So I guess it's a win. :laugh: ETA: and gifs. loves me…

This. LOVE LOVE LOVE Chobani. I also like that it's local (upstate NY, near the MA border)

As others have said- grilled/broiled chicken rather than fried is a wiser choice. Also, broiled fish is an excellent way to get protein without excess dietary fat. I notice you don't do much for breakfast... my two thoughts on this are 1) lack of something substantial for breakfast may be one reason why you're going for…

My 3 main go-to breakfasts: greek yogurt and granola = 360cals cottage cheese and 1/2 grapefruit = 210cals Breakfast Sandwich (2 eggs & Arnold's sandwich thins- flax & fiber) = 240cals plus my coffee. I've been mixing it up with breakfast burritos lately, and they vary. sometimes there's cheese, sometimes there's bacon,…

I love your ticker art! Alex Grey, right? OP- tea, and if you have the room for it, some honey or agave. OR, dark chocolate. I have a thing for Lindt- particularly the black currant bar. Each square is 50 calories, and sometimes, just one is enough to satisfy.

22 months, by choice. I'd gotten to a point where I was tired of pointless flings and entanglements with guys who, while being decent, good people, weren't what I really wanted. I decided to hold out for extraordinary... thought I found it; got duped. :grumble: Funny aside about that entanglement- when he ended it (after…

Every. Damn. Day. Because I'm neurotic, and because I like monitoring what's happening, whether it's up or down, and I can make adjustments if it's not moving in the direction it ought.

Or they may not change much at all. Mine were only slightly bigger during both pregnancies and while breastfeeding. I never had to buy a different size, and post-bfing, I'm still the same size I was before and during pregnancy.
-
Just reiterating what others have already said… It's an understandable fear, but don't let it stop you from losing weight and being healthy. While your cup and band size will change, so will the rest of your body. If they're not big enough for you and your husband's liking, there's always implants.

I don't count gum or cough drops and I don't take vitamins; I also don't ordinarily count spices when I'm building recipes, but I do count condiments- I build marinades into my recipes, so everything in them apart from spices is counted. I generally don't add things to my water or tea, but if I use honey or agave I will…

Oh man, all of everyone's above. Not sure there's anything I can add- the 90s was my musical coming of age… although- not all 90's, but throw in some Pink Floyd, Beatles, Zeppelin, Bowie, Phish, GD, Rusted Root… And The.Flaming.Lips. She don't use jelly is just a tip of their 90s iceberg

…but I'm active. I'm healthy. LOL. I allowed myself to think that because I was on my feet 10+ hours a day running a restaurant and hiking, swimming or skiing in my free time meant that it didn't matter that I was overweight. Of course, that's bull****.

Ketel One vodka and club soda good quality, strong and transparent, yet more than meets the eye :wink:

Oh nom nom nom… sounds like the "fun side" to me!

Trail mix. I can't stop at a serving. It's just that mindless goodness that is easy to rationalize because it's nuts and dried fruit, and a little bit of chocolate. But to enjoy it to satisfaction means more calories than I want to (or can!) spend. Case in point- last night my husband and I nearly ate an entire container,…

You know you can set your diary to private. You can also not hit the "finished logging for today" button. Find a way to be healthy and balanced- if possible judgement from friends is preventing you from doing so, make it so there is no judgement possible.
