Bolthouse is great. Low in calories. But, if you shop at publix, have you tried www.iheartpublix.com? Big time savings every week where the weekly sales and paired with on-line coupons.

I was 135 when I got pregnant, 175when I had her, and 120 when I finishednbreastfeeding. Did not go to a gym, and never counted a calorie. It is about 700calories a day.

I breast fed both kids for over a year each. I lost all my baby weight and more. I started out thinking I would do it for a month, and then until I went back to work, etc. I had to learn how to do it. No woman in my family had done it, and I got push back. They would say stupid things like your breasts are going to sag,…

I had to give up all dairy when I was breastfeeding becuase my daughter had colic issues. Colic is hell, and giving up dairy was a HUGE deal for me . . . but having her cry until 5:00 in the morning was my motivation. I did GREAT. I discovered that I "farted" alot becuase of eating dairy. How did I do it? Well, they make…

Got mine, easy, and have since 1996 when I was diagnosed with a naturally low immune system. I never have had a problem with the shot. And, I just get a cold .... But no flu. I get terrible pneumonia and upper respitory infections from just a bad cold.

In first met him, I was 19 and he was 17. Met later on, I was 21 and he was 19. In 3 months, I knew it was going to be a long relatinoship. Engaged 3 years later, and married at 25 (he 23). Been married many, many, many happy years with hardly a quarrel between us. This will be our 20 year anniversary. I'm 44 and he's 42.…

Those are tiger stripes. Wear them proudly. They will fade. On the other hand, i know what you mean. I "hate" that my hips and legs demand a smaller skirt and pants, but my post-baby belly demands a larger size. It's super bad when I do a yoga move like plow. When my legs are towards the ceiling, my stomach falls from my…

Take up skating. Ask at the local rink if there is a "Learn to Skate" class. Oh, and you'll get better endurance & balance, along with strong legs, butt, back, and core. Because you are in a cold environment, you'll have to eat more good foods. Just make every bite count of good food. Carbs are key to survive figure…

Move her out of this school. It's OK for a school to be concerned about a legitimate concern. But, the picture clearly shows a healthy weighted little girl. This pre-school is nuts to write you a letter on this subject, especially given your picture of a normal little girl. So, you read the letter and, likely, she is going…

Turbospoke Bike Exhaust System (turns a boring old bike into a VRRRROOOOM sound machine) or Monkeylectric LED lights for bike wheels. Boys gotta ride.

I was so wowed by your story, I just shared it with someone in the room with me! Incredible!

I am there with you on the belly fat problem. I am searching for answers. Start with the doctor. That's where I am at. I get blood tests done for thyroid, hormones, etc. done in 2 weeks. What I read is that our female hormones start to drop. Our progesterone lowers the most, and we become estrogen dominent. This condition…

Height? 5'4 Starting weight? 152 Current weight? 152 Goal Weight? 135 Age? 44 How many calories you eat a day? 1200 + exercise calories

I came in under, vut was on my feet the whole day.

I know a mother who was denied independent health care insurance for her child. She was just a year or so older then your granddaughter. The company denied her due to her weight. She was chunky and, six years later, is still a chunky kid. But, she's not obese, just a little overweight. Finals was able to get her covered…

Pizza chicken. Brown boneless chicken breasts for three mins on each side in a teaspoon of oil. Take out of pan. Dice some veggies, small. Peppers, onions, whatever in pan. Add about four slices of turkey pepperoni, chopped, to pan. Add in spaghetti sauce. Put chicken in oven safe dish. Top with a few teaspoons of…

I am cooking for 20 people! We live right across the street from tennis & volleyball courts, and I have 6+ racquets for people to go play while I cook. I am running them out of the house. - Roasted whole turkey - 2 turkey breasts - 1 ham - 1 beef roast - mashed potatoes or whole, bakes potato "bar" (Having a "bar" is goign…

You are an inspiration to us all.

Update: I bought Emitra Pro-Gest and started it yesterday morning. A dab twice a day. I peed all last night, 3 times! Coincidence? I don't know. But, i lost 2 pounds this morning. I went to the doctor. He ordered a bunch of blood tests, which I get done in the first week of December. I am to continue my diet and exercise.

I started a group! I will photgraph a cool picture to take. Perhaps sea shells spelling menopause? http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/9753-peri-menopausel-women

When I used the oral pills, I was hungrier. Now, I use the Nuvaring. it doesn't make me any hungrier.

"Bring 2012 On" would be a good tshirt. I don't put much faith in the God of Abraham, any more then I do Zeus, Incan Gods, Mayan Gods, of Jack and the Beanstalk . Personally, my feeling and observation is that the God of Abraham has mental issues. It rubs off on those who try to follow His word. The God of Abraham is very…

My weekly progress. I ate VERY cleanly (under or at my goal) and exercised almost every day this week. Guess what? I gained 2 pounds this morning. I can't wait to see the doctor tomorrrow. I had my thyroid checked about 9 months ago. It was A-OK. I last had my blood sugar checked about 2 years ago. It was also AOK.

My belly looks like yours. I have 2 kids. You have had 4. Before i had my first kid, i was "perfect". I am going to brag. I was. I figure skated all the time. When I had her, my jewel, my stomach became this ugly, wrinkly badge of motherhood. My OB/GYN knew me from head to toe (having had multiple D&C's before my first).…

"my mouth water right now lol" OMG. I got to go and drink soem pickle juice!

There's always a "pickleback" shot. Of course, that might be best AFTER the running. LOL. I love pickle juice and have drank it pretty regularly for all my life. Kosher is my favorite juice to drink. I haven't drank it lately, becuase it makes me gain a pound. I think this is from fluid retention. It's best on a super hot…

I figure skated for an hour (hickory hoedown dance) and did the first 30 minutes of P90X Core.

Love yoga. Frog is my move of pain & suffering. I love Warrior, especially #3

Fort Myer's, Florida USA is jumping
