I was perusing the community and came across this in my quest for information on losing weight while nursing. I am nursing my 7 month old and I am finding it difficult to get the weight off as well. I know it's only been about a week but has anything improved with increased calories. Are you ladies working out as well?

I am in the same boat as well. I will send a request. Anyone else who would like to be supported and share support as well can send me a request.:happy:

I'd like to participate. I started it Feb of this year and found out I was expecting so now I'm getting back in shape. By then I will be ready to start BR.

I will start in. I am redoing week one because I know I did not push myself the first week. Good luck to everyone on their journeys.

I was wondering the same about the seven day kikstart your metabolism menu. I looked it over and am pondering whether to try it. Seeing as I am just starting would like to know if anyone has combined the workouts and the menu plan for the 7 day kickstart and results

YAY! Saw that my box had been delivered and rushed from work to make it to the P.O. on time!!! Going through everything now, while I didn't start on 1/14 I plan to do everything as noted in order to maximize results. Reading through the material and I'm as excited as a kid!

I wish I could start with you, depends on when my shipment FINALLY arrives. I am so excited, love Jillian Michaels and working towards a huge goal. Good luck, hope you get members on board.

You are not alone, I have bloating that makes me literally one size bigger in my shirts and my bottoms are always tight for two weeks (including time of cycle). I don't usually get on the scale during my "on- week", but did for a challenge I am participating in last month. The week of I was 6 POUNDS HEAVIER than the week…

THIS! It is a matter of changing your perspective at this point, as according to your posting, you've done all you can. You have to accept that you can only change those things over which you have control. The bright side, IT DOES NOT ALWAYS HAVE TO BE THIS WAY! Don't listen to people who tell you it does. I'm a planner so…

That's me! I won't even buy the big packages anymore, if I get them gotta be a snack or individual size and I give half away.

Seeing a candid photo of myself. I did not know I was "that" big, the mirror lies, photos tell the truth!

Thanks for the post, I wasn't aware of the first recall, but thankfully I do not eat any of those brands listed. However, I do have friends who love Trader Joe's I'll be sure to forward.

Hi All! I got way off track and haven't been using MFP like I should have. I just wanted to touch base with everyone get some insight on how everyone is doing. I have not lost anymore weight and am upping the intensity of workouts since the calories have not helped. How's everyone?

Once I reach my goal size (not weight) I am going to also get a tattoo and new wardrobe. I have a "little black dress" that I intend to wear on New Year's this year that I have hanging on my wall as motivation and reminder as well. That will be the best reward - getting in that dress!

Hi everyone, I was just thinking of doing low carb, as I am a carboholic and my doctor has advised me to start a low carb plan ASAP. I am happy to support you guys and would welcome motivation as well. I have not started any specific program as I am looking for the right program because this is going to have to be a…

I'm so late with my weigh in, but I wanted to celebrate a .5lb loss. Not much, but at this point it is. I am down to the nitty gritty when it comes to getting back into my healthy weight range and I always have a hard time. I'm proud that I haven't given up and am still pushing along although things are not necessarily…

Love it, new desktop background at work!

Def do a search on YouTube, tons of full workouts that you can use as a reference.

Try making sauces out of veggies (blended soups too). As someone else suggested, try smoothies. You can chug and be done with if necessary. Whip them in potatoes. Experiment with different preparation methods. Have you tried to eat "cooked" vegetables raw, like broccoli, snow/sugar snap peas, spinach, etc? Chop/shred them…

That's excellent!

Don't get discouraged. Something is triggering the eating, so try to pay attention and see if it is something other than the sun going down. Are you used to eating during your evening activities? If so, try to have fruits, veggies and water around and go for those. Or is it that you specifically crave the junk food? If so,…

Even at a size 4 I didn't have a thigh gap. Body type I guess, never really thought about it.

In addition to what everyone else is saying, he may be self concious. I don't know how physically fit he is, but I know for some guys, just like with women, your strides toward fitness may be making him rethink his own physical appearance. With depression the issues and underlying causes can be so deep it takes a lot of…

I add spaghetti squash to the spaghetti it helps.

My weight this morning is the same. I'm altering my workouts to do the c25k during my daily workouts (starting today) and using the butt bible videos for toning. I really hope to see a weight loss next week. Congratulations everyone in making progress scale and nsv alike.

Sent you a friend request, I will gladly add to the support you receive from others. This site is really great tool for those of us that want a support system. I would also suggest trolling the groups and challenges that pop up from time to time. I have found that you get a more intimate support system when you set up with…

Hi! I am still riding the high of determination and motivation at this point. I am coming off my "favorite week of the month" so things were questionable for a few days. Glad to be out of that and able to function (and eat) at my regular capacity. Things are crazy with my schedule at this point, so it takes a bit more…

I definitely get treated differently by people in general. I believe some of it has to do with my lack of confidence once I put on so much weight. I really wanted to blend in as much as possible. Most of the treatment differences is a general,"when I'm in public" thing. I get more smiles compliments and date requests. As…

I didn't get an opportunity to post before this weekend. The thing I HATE more than any other exercise are planks. I like your idea of doing a set each hour. I will have to try this in the evenings this week. Another idea my brother gave me was to do some type of exercise each commercial break when watching television. I…

I second this, during that time of month (and the week prior and a few days after) my body goes crazy. No scale will ever see me during this time and if you are craving a bag of chips and chocolate. Have an individual bag of chips and a snack size candy bar. Then drink water and aim to burn those calories off if you are…
