This is going to be tough balancing losing the baby weight without diminishing milk supply. Slow and steady wins the race.

Congratulations to you, too!

Thank you! Mine are fraternal. Boy/Girl. :heart:

That is awesome! Great job!

Have pretzels smeared with peanut butter and Nutella...It tastes like peanut butter Twix! :love:

Have your blood pressure checked. I had high BP, and that was one of my problems.

Good info! Is there any way to mimic The Captain's Chair at home? I do have a pull-up bar...would hanging from that while lifting my legs/knees be as effective?

Lord, please cover everyone affected by this disaster with your comfort and peace. We pray that some good will come from this. Let more turn to you in the face of tragedy, and feel your Spirit and your grace. In Jesus name, Amen. :heart:

That is really good to know. Nothing is more frustrating than busting your a** and getting zero results. Thanks for passing this info on! :smile:

I eat at night, too. It has not hindered my weight loss so far. I think you will be fine as long as you make sure to log everything, and stay within your calorie goals. I don't know about you, but I cannot fall asleep when I'm hungry. I've been on MFP for about 2 months, and I have lost 12 lbs. I eat pretty much every…

Nope! Just a towel and lots of water!

I throw a bit into the blender to add protein to my smoothies.

I'm doing it every-other day. I swim on the off days. IT IS HARD, but you CAN do it! Make sure you take breaks, pause the DVD if you need to. My legs look better than they ever have, and my cardio endurance has definitely gone up! I've been doing it for (almost) the last 3 weeks. I log it under "circuit training, general"…

You are in Criminal Justice or something of the like, right? You could go with why plea bargains are good or bad (depending on opinion), death penalty, 3 strikes-you're out laws, a current topic would be on the Supreme Court ruling on the Westboro Baptist Church right to picket military funerals under the 1st Amendment.

You just take care of YOU, girlfriend! Whatever you are doing is obviously working! I'll send you a friend request, and I promise not to judge. You can look at all the pizza and tequila on MY food diary, then! :drinker: Lol! (I eat healthy stuff, too) If anyone judges you.....either tell them, or delete them. Who needs…

I have only had the Deep Chocolate flavor, and I think it's like eating cake! :love: I don't think I could survive PMS without them... as for the other flavors, I think I'd only be interested in the blueberry or cranberry. I don't like anything that tastes like bananas, except real bananas. But so far, I'm so stuck on the…

"Bump" What a great blog post! Thank you! :heart:

Oh, I am so sorry for your loss.....:cry: God Bless you and your family. Thank you for all of the inspiration and motivation. :flowerforyou:

I think we have all been there. Just relax today...don't go on a cookie dough binge, or anything crazy like that...:tongue: , but give yourself a break from the frustration, recuperate, and start fresh tomorrow. One. Day. At. A. Time. :flowerforyou:

I think you are actually referring to "ketosis". That is the muscle breakdown, and is hard on the kidneys and liver.

If you are doing serious body building, then yes. If you are just going for some definition, you don't need that much. (My BF used to be a Body Builder)

I spent 8 years in the Army Reserve, and am a Combat Veteran of Operation Enduring Freedom (I was in Afghanistan from May '04-May '05). I went to Basic Training in Ft. Leonard Wood, Missouri. Don't worry, your daughter will do just fine. She sounds a lot like I was when I joined! Trust me, the discipline I learned was a…

Tofu picks up the flavor of whatever you are cooking. I bend mine in with smoothies. Tons of protein. Oh, and Greek yogurt is good, and chicken breasts.

I'd bet 8 sit-ups would take care of that! :happy: Seriously, though...don't worry about it. NOTHING is exactly precise! I totally understand, though.....It's kind of like getting your first "B" when you are a straight "A" student. Don't worry, though. A glass of water and a walk around the block, or 60 seconds of jumping…
