  • You might want to bump your calories a bit more. It's been a while since I nursed, but I seem to recall that Dr Google favored closer to 500 calories to support breastfeeding.
  • I can't tell you how much sugar we consumed while my folks were here. My folks live in FL and at least in their area they can't find great pizza, chinese take out, donuts etc... so we make up for their lost yummy foods. Nearly every day I woke up with terrible headaches. I don't know if it was the grains or the sugar, but…
  • Something to keep in mind, even if you don't lose pounds on the scale, it doesn't mean you're not losing the fat anyway. My weight has stalled, some of it my fault, some of it plateau, but I'm fitting in to the size 12 jeans better and better all the time. Please don't just define yourself just on what the scale says, look…
  • check out genaw.com and peaceloveandlowcarb.com genaw is all atkins oriented recipes, recipes with * next to them are induction friendly. peace love and low carb is a blend of low carb, paleo etc, so check the carb counts before prepping!
  • We have a triple whammy Thanksgiving weekend in the forms of Thanksgiving day, a "New Family Dinner" on the Friday, and a swanky Engagement Party(cocktail party) on the Saturday. Even shooting for no cheats until Thanksgiving day will be unlikely, my folks are coming to stay for the Sunday before to the Sunday after…
  • I'm down 10 pounds for the month(now at 181), and I did make it in to my goal jeans, size 12's. My husband says I'm thinning all over, so that feels great to hear, and I've had to cinch my belt two notches in to keep my pants on. ^_^
  • Sadly our tickers seem to be hiding from our post signatures(unless that's just me, but I tried it with ABP turned off too). Toughest temptation: fruit and cupcakes. My kiddo just turned 3, I did not resist the cupcakes. She's always eating fruit and tries to share with me, she looks so heart broken when I tell her it's…
  • I'm down 6 pounds for the month so far. I took 1 cupcake liberty on my daughers birthday. The following day, we had about 15 friends over for dinner(grilling cookout) so we took that and then the Monday off as well(Columbus Day). After lunch, eating carbs again, I felt soooooo bloated and fat and yucko. I was happy to kick…
  • I gotta ask, Satin Pumpkin, What are you doing and/or eating that you're losing nearly 5 pounds in 8 days?
  • I'm reading the Dr Atkins: New Diet Revolution as I go along. I don't use any of the apps, just keep a running tally in my head as the day goes on. I'm on day 12 of induction and having a weight bobble. It could be anything from having bacon(tasted extra salty and therefore holding on to a bit more water than usual), it…

  • I'll join you. I'm day 8 induction and my first week weight loss has settled down to a more stable pace. Today's weight is 191lbs(from 197.5), and my goal will be be comfortable in my 'first goal' jeans, size 12's.
