Like everything else in parenting, I think the key is to be flexible. Having kids (at least for me) means I'm not going to have the same routine each day and as long as I'm "generally" meeting a goal of working out in some way, most days, that enough. Working out before the kids get up is the best option IMO, because you…

Thanks! I'm super excited to "do it right" this time around!

Ok guys thanks. It's so hard not to get fixated on the number, especially when it was going so well! I'll just drink lots of water and keep on carrying on...

I didn't know this made a difference?

Bump. Any advice is really appreciated!

I find the best motivator for me is: when I feel good in the clothes that fit me now. Having a closet full of clothes that don't fit depresses me. If I'm walking around feeling great about myself, I'm more likely to go running that day, eat right, etc. So if this were me, I'd buy the bigger size, have it tailored, and…

Yes Me! Or close to anyway. 5'6 - 167lbs. Goal weight is 130/140. I'm 31 and started logging in January. I could definitely use more motivation/friends. Please add me!

Hi! Another mom here, though I'm a first timer. Still struggling to lose the last of that baby weight (10lbs) and then all the weight I HAD intended to lose before getting preg in the first place- oops! I could really use some more motivating friends. Please add me!

Ok thanks all. Almost makes me want to just skip it altogether. Ha

I get hungry at night too, even if I had a big dinner. I find drinking water or hot tea really helps, gives me something to do. If that fails and I have a sweet tooth, I do ricotta cheese with some vanilla/almond extract, shaved almonds, and a truvia packet. It's good. BTW - I LOVE the ham pickle thing but usually with…

I added the app over a year ago but didn't really know what I was doing and didn't have any idea about the awesome community on here. So I consider my "real" start date beginning of Jan ha Been logging every day since. My goal is to lose what I call my pregancy/marriage/honeymoon weight. Basically everything I gained in…

Ok thanks. It'll be nice to have the extra calories, I've been starving lol

Ok thanks. So since I've calculated the TDEE I should adjust my goal to 1500 a day and NOT log excercise right?

Yes I started just above 170 and I'm trying to get back to 130. 140 is probably more realistic for me but one can dream. I'm 5'6 and I work at a desk job and run 3-5 times a week for 40 mins. Am I calculating something wrong?

Always always always with. If my headphones break or my battery dies, which has happened, I'll literally stop running to go to Radio shack to fix it on the spot before continuing on. I can't run without music, my brain is too loud. I'm primarily an outside runner, but I stick to running trails and other places where I…

I'm 31, just started this recently. I log everyday. Would love to have some more people for inspiration!

Wow thanks everyone for all the great ideas! Sounds like I just need to have some options in the house to supplement what's already on the table.
