I'm glad it is helping. I wish you the best of luck. Hope you keep feeling better.

HI Welcome aboard. I think you came to the right place and you will deffinitely find what you need. You just need to poke around a bit. conrats on you two little ones.

That's awesome. Good for you.

Hot apple cider, Hot lemon water. There are herbal teas, that do not really contain tea, more like flavored waters. You could also warm up flavored waters.

Hmmm!! I'm going to have try that. I do feel like I sometimes still think I am way fatter than I am and now I don't know what I really look like. I feel comfortable now and I don't know if that is good or not.

I think you need to talk to a doctor or another person that can try to help manage her care. I used to work in an assisted living facility with the elderly. These are very normal early stages of dentia. Do not take it personally, but you do need to take it seriously. There are medications she can take that will help slow…

You should make sure you are eating food for satiety not fullness. You need to make sure you are eating high fiber more dense foods with low carbs. (not no carbs,) I find that when I eat smaller portions of the same foods I used to eat I want more. I just don't feel satisfied. If I eat more fruits and veggies and get…

That looks soooooo good. I am impressed. Of course now I'm craving sushi.:grumble:

I would go under setting and change your activity level to active. Your body will adapt to that exercise and it will become less effective.

I thought about the naughty thing. I was even thinking of getting him 40 of something, like 40 quaters, cotton ball, I even thought about 40 condoms, :blushing: but my parents and grandparents will be there as well as his 6 year old son.

I found these need containers at my supermarket that you can freeze the bowl and put things like yogurt in them. I send those. My kids like salad so I sent those. I do have themos containers to keep things warm too. So I do send soups, and/or leftovers, too.

Maybe you could find a consignment shop and exchange them there. You will sell them and get money for them. You could in turn buy some used clothes, then you won't feel so guitly having different clothes.

Working on the water. 2 cups down. Did the hamstring curls. As for normal work out. I have been using my elliptical and intermittenly running. I just bought a new kettlebell that came with a dvd and I also bought a new taebo dvd. I need to spice up my workout too. I am still sore from the kettlebell dvd I did on Sat.…

Good job. I think if you stick with it you will reach your end goal. You look great and thanks for sharing

Looks nice. Thanks for sharing

Does a game show count? I guess it's real tv. Who wants to be a millinaire. It looks like fun.

WOW!! You look amazing. I hope you feel as good as you look. Thanks for sharing. :flowerforyou:

I am really pushing on the water. I think I have hit goal a few times this week. I it sooooo hard for me. I don't know why. I will work on finding a new recipe. I do have one for a vergetable lasagna for this week. Does that count? I have had lasagna before, but not with this recipe. I think I will post a QOTD, because I…

I live in NH and they didn't put weight on your DL, then I lost mine and the new ones have weight. I had to get a duplicate because I lost mine. So at the time I actually put my real weight and I am down 15lbs since then. :bigsmile: I get a new one next month one my Bday.

Nice explanation.

I worry about the same thing as you. I don't want popeye calves. A friend of mine who has done some personal trainer training said to not do calve raises. She also said little things like when you walk up the stairs put your foot flat on the stair. Most people only put the front of their foot on the front of the stair,…

It is a little work up front but you can use the recipe builder and add the recipes there. Then you can choose those from your data base. You can go in and change it up a little if you modify the ingredients too. Best wishes

Welcome aboard. Thank you for your service. I hope you find the motivation and support you need.

You look amazing. Thanks for sharing.

I'm not saying the HCG was what worked or didn't work, but did you try it at 500 calories without the HCG, or, at your normal calories with the HCG. If it were the HCG, then why can't you eat normal and take the HCG and lose weight? How about when you go back to eating normal?

You shouldn't count those. Sorry :cry: I don't mean to discount them, but most people and MFP don't count calories from weight lifting as it usually doesn't get your heart rate up enough to really burn calories. The benefits from weight lifting comes from the muscle mass you build. That muscle mass adds to your calorie…

Your best calories saving bang would be to do thin crust with veggies. You will fill up faster and have less crust. The crust and cheese is what kill ya.

You count your highest weigh when you were NOT pregnant. You can count the weight you had before you conceived, absolutely.

You CAN count post partum weight. I agree with this post. If you count your highest weight as the weight you are the day before you give birth, then you are counting baby too. I think if you count your weight at your 6 week check up, that is an accurate starting weight. Just my opinion, but I do look at a post of someone…

5 Miles a day?? That seems like a big start. It will take you more than an hour to reach that pace. That just seems like a lot to start out with. Anyhow, congrats on your purchase. I have a treadmill and an elliptical. The one thing that makes it easier to use, is to put it somewhere, where you will enjoy the view using…
