thank you!

I prefer pumping because it hurts less, it does less damage to my nipples. Instead of crying and torturing myself and my baby trying to get a 'perfect' latch I pump. i also like knowing exactly how much he's eating. its a personal preference and has nothing to do with my diet.
-
What is pump purging. Last baby i gained weight eating extra cals for breast feeding. No I don't have an history of eating disorders. Usually I do low carb( no bread rice potato) to lose weight. But I lays fall off that bandwagon HARD. So I am trying to do it smart this time.

how do you enter say grilled chicken if you don't have nutritional label for it
-
Oh and 700 days I probably was so tired I passed out
-
I have no problem weighing things except that everyone preaches to weigh food and then when I look for that food in the database there are ONLY cup measurements so then I weighed it ate it and can't find a weight in the database. I hate this database it seems that the only things that are accurate in here are food that…

i am right now because i have a significant amount to lose and i want to make sure i am on the right track.
-
yeah i can see that now. i for sure have to make it my business to eat as much home cooking as i can. dinner is a hard one because like i said no real kitchen and so tired at night. but i have to try harder.

Curious as to what you switched to I found the book a little confusing. Maybe I missed it cause of reading in my nook but I found no program just pages of excersizes. I want charts that just say what to do. List it out.
-
Great idea!! Thank you. Kettle bells too or no? I cant lifft too heavy yet. Do you know of a program? I like to follow something to help with goals.
-
I looked at strong lifts, but do any of you know of any plans I can start with at home that only requires dumb bells. I could get a bar but can't get any of the other types of equipment. Thank you.

Hopefully some nice people will chime in soon. Read what Burt wrote that is good advice. I don't think you deserve to be responded to that way. Most of the time when people do research of stuff like diet and excersize mfp forums come up in google anyway so why not just ask?? I didn't think the way you worded it was wrong.…

After averaging everything out my bf% is 34 I am having about 1700 a day on moderate activity level. For simplicity, you can try scooby's accurate calculator. It came out to almost the same as most tdee formulas here. Sometimes I have a little less like 100 cals or so. Or shoot for 1600-1700 and see how you do. I think my…

Lol, yes you did help me. I was just curious about the body fat scale. The grain thing was hard to understand so I needed to ask questions but I think I got it, Thank you for your help
-
Thank you for this. As far as my tdee I tried my best to get it right. I used an average of a bunch of different body fat calculators and used that avg in scooby formula and your method too they were one calorie off. What do you think of body fat scales. Mine says 31.4 but my avg is 34 % with taking measurements. Also I…

Thanks!!

That's ok! I like to eat that way most of the day. But if I go out and I want a wrap or a latte or whatever I don't wanna beat myself up. Yes with primal I was eating tons of meat fish veg fruit sweet potato squash.....
-
Lol. I want to eat them sometimes. I just don't want it to set me back. But you all have really helped me out here. I will have them......sometimes, when I want and in my calorie goal
-
Eating low carb or low grain doesn't make me more satisfied at all as some have said. I am starving all day when I do it and I do keep eating all day so it's not like I follow a calorie deficit when I low grain it. It's opposite for me if I start my day with a bagel I won't be hungry for hours and hours. I had fried eggs…

Hi PU 239 I am following ur tdee formula about 2 weeks now. I guess after thinking and reading the comments I shouldn't have said low carb. I eat low grain. I use spaghetti squash and zucchini ribbons in place of pasta, and like I said try to have grains in small doses per day. I can't cut them out for weeks on end. I will…
-
I do lose the weight awesome like that but the minute I get comfortable with my weight I start eating things I love here and there before I know it I gained 15 pounds. It's annoying
-
Purplesaurus I don't want to go primal again because I will just go insane one day and shove everything i love in my face and gain back weight. So like a bunch of you said I need to find a balance. Plus primal makes me eat tons of sweet potato because I am hungry all the time. Coconut milk tastes like crud in coffee I…
-
Thank you everyone. Great info here. I am going to try and continue my low grain healthy eating, but stop beating myself up about an English muffin or a side of rice he and there. And of course brownies and such here and there too. It's true when I deprive for a while I go nuts on the grains. It's way I have a little…
-
Majope. Does that glycogen statement go for all carbs? Because I do get carbs in I just don't eat a lot of grains. Now I am scared that I am putting myself on some kind of sick twisted carb roller coaster.
-
Yes pink I agree. Being told no does make me go overboard. For instance when I was in s.c. On a little vacation, if I was doing no grain I would've gone nuts down there and had no idea how many calories I was eating and totally went crazy because ' its the weekend I can't have this stuff for another six days after today'…

Yes that book I did find it complicated. Thanks for your advice and link!

This is the best thread. Does everyone lift at a gym is it possible to do this at home? I bought the book that was mentioned in this thread, but I need something more simplified. Like just tell me what to do with a chart and pictures so I don't have to flip thru the book, it's on my nook. Any suggestions?

I love this thread I feel like I am learning so much about the carb issue. Thanks!
