Congratulations to you guys on your post pregnancy weightloss! I'm 2 months pp and am wondering how MFP takes into account breastfeeding. Does anyone know?

(and compare it to that last photo taken of me - in which I look like a whale!! :) Great idea about the Pinterest! will have to check it out! thanks.

I live in Australia and it's in the health food isle of Coles or Woolworths etc from memory. Near the protein bars and stuff. I also use psyllium husk instead of (or as well as) breadcrumbs - eg baked, crumbed chicken wings.

I was a WeightWatcher a few years ago and lost 33lbs and kept it off for a few years. But I wasn't a nursing Mum! I think WW is a totally different mentality to what this website is about. I would suggest ask your WW leader about calories and she what she/he has to say. I think with Weight loss / management you need to…

Hi Charmaine, my name is Nellie. I can relate to being in a small town with limited access to the gym classes. When I lived in the city I love the group classes - I found they motivated me so much more than just the treadmill and solo exercises. Having said that, I am hiring an elliptical cross trainer at the moment (hire…

Oh YAY! Teresa, that's wonderful. I'm actually just hiring an elliptical trainer because yes, it's very time consuming going to the gym. Not just the session, it's driving there and all that comes with it. And with kids.... hmmm. So wow, look forward to some pics of your gym! That's great! My boyfriend is also thinking of…

So Teresa, (and all other newbies), Firstly, best wishes for your weight loss! It's an incredibly hard journey. I have quite smoking (18 months ago) and have always battled with my weight. I think it's way harder to get to goal weight (or even lose any weight) than quitting smoking! So! I have joined this website and am…
