unfortunately it's hard to figure out how much you're actually losing since i don't exactly know how many ounces my son was drinking. i can't see it! haha but i just used whatever was in the system (search breastfeeding as 3dogs said)

I was referring to people with longer hair than yours haha but thx for your input :)

LOL ^_^

That's what i read somewhere online too but wasn't so sure about it. Thx.

HAHA Yes, my dr asked me cause i'm crazy. If i feel any bump or anyhing strange anywhere, I get concerned. This time, there was a small bump on my head... it was nothing. I run my fingers through my hair after i shower (wet). What's the difference with "combing" and "brushing" your hair other than the tool you use?????…

I'm Mien (most people don't know what that is) & husband is Chinese American. Since we're both Asian, we just look like some Asian couple. haha but we're very different. Different cultures & different languages. Our 18 mo son will probably be more American (We're in US) and probably won't pick up neither the Chinese or…

Great Job! Hard work pays off!

I bought a Polar FT7 and I love it. It's basic. Just tells you the heart rate and how many calories you're burning and the duration of your work out. You can also set a % rate where it will beep if you're under or over your max heart rate. Oh, it also tells me if i'm in the "fat burn" zone or if i'm in the "fitness burn"…

great job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thx everyone! Sorry, the two side photos are from yesterday (not 3 separate times haha). The side photo (left) shows a little tummy pooch. I'm not too worried about it or workign too hard on it (I'm actually working on having baby #2!) I will difinetly be back after to lose baby weight! The check was for $765. It was done…

um, your abs (on profile pic) already rocks ;)

Thanks for sharing :)

That's GREAT accomplishments! CongratS!

avoid those fruity mix drinks. packed with calories. if you absolutely have to have alcohol. martinis or just plain shots!LOL if you get anything like rum & coke or vodka and sprite make sure the sodas or tonic water is diet and then dance your *kitten* off and burn those calories!

YES! Eat up! Yum!

bump

What's worse is i am short AND have a long torso. so talk about long legs? never in my lifetime ^_^ 5'4 BMI 20.8 BF 27% (dunno how accurate that is without doing the water weighing thing) Size 4 or 5 (small in tops)

I use to HATE jogging but i actually enjoy it now because of the calorie burn but I agree with Skinnylove, power walking does the job sometimes too :)

Try Calorie cycling or zig zagging. eating high calories one day & lower another but staying within the total for the week. It usually helps break plateaus. Your body gets used to the normal 1200/cal a day.

I use a heart rate monitor & not listen to the dam machines! ^_^ One day the elliptical said I burned about 200 & my HRM says 190 (guess I wasn't working that hard) but another day the machine said 200 & my HRM said 350! But i was moving faster and increased resistance. For me I burn more calories on treadmill (if…

hard lumps? maybe get it checked. better safe that sorry. good luck

usually it's the women talking about marriage the man saying "whoa, slow down" LOL but I knew I wanted to marry my husband after the first year of dating... even though he waited 6 years to ask me. You have to be able to see yourself with him in the LONG future... when you're both retired and old sitting in the kitchen…

I'm 5'4 & was 140 when I started. I'm 122 now. I set my goal weight at 110 but I think i'm okay here. Just need toning ^_^

I AGREE. I LOVE my HRM too! sometimes I can burn more calories doing the same exact exercise for the same amount of time (maybe I had more energy due to coffee?) so it is important to me to use the HRM and get a more accurate number of calories burned. I also weigh everything I eat. HAHA my scale & HRM are my best friends!…

yay! congrats!

I don't plan as well as you do but when I have left over calories, I enjoy a treat such as a bowl of ice cream! LOL

I hear "that's a lot of work" too and I think to myself... "you're not the one doing the work" I do it because I want to. I like knowing what i'm eating and how much i'm working out and I ♥ the progress! So, yes. it may seem a lot of work but having a child is a lot of work too. You learn to adjust and make it part of your…

I have this too & ♥ it. It's basic.

Hi! Working mom. work & come home to see son, sometimes it seems hard to squeeze in some time with hubby let alone socialize with people outside of work and fam. ♥ LOL

I'm sorry. You can ignore his text msgs if he doesn't get it. Do what you need to move on... even if it means letting him go completely.
