No you are not drinking too much. Drink away

"Examples of whole foods include unpolished grains, beans, fruits, vegetables and non-homogenized dairy products." (from the wiki page I pointed out) If you click on the "unpolished grains", it comes to this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whole_grain Read it and eat it. Just make sure you read labels - ingredients.

Simply there are 2 ways to lose weight: 1. MFP If you are using MFP's auto set goal, which set up how much lb you want to lose (which I think that's how your setting is are right now because of only 1200 cal), MFP has already created enough deficit to help you lose weight. In this case, when you workout and logging your…

Oolong Tea for Weight Loss - http://oolong-tea-benefits.com/ Wiki - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oolong In general tea (green and white) have tons of health benefits. But you cannot rely on just having it in your diet to losing weight without: eating right and exercises. Do enjoy Oolong tea!

Wow, it's very impressive that you U is doing that. We do need to raise awareness of being active and eating healthy in this country. This is great!

I finally took my first picture of this pregnancy. I have a bump but not as hard/round/big as Rayna. Don't get me wrong, Rayna, your bump looks so awesome. I guess I'll take one sets of pictures a week from now on too. Never did that from my 1st time.

wow............

I hope you are joking, right? "What exactly is Jell-O made from? (http://recipes.howstuffworks.com/question557.htm) Jell-O consists of four basic ingredients: gelatin water sugar or artificial sweetener and artificial flavors food coloring "

Yes there is, GNC shake or Slim Fast. Just 2 or 4 a day

Thanks for sharing. I need to get some new ones.

Sharing some reading "New Car Seat Rules" (effective March 2011): "Before you buckle up your kids again, there are new rules regarding car seats from the American Academy of Pediatrics that you should know. As of March 2011, the AAP recommends that children remain in rear-facing car seats until age 2, or until they reach…

Love this one!!!

Agree with Taso. If you decided to join a gym, I would look for the one has 24 hrs access. It gave me more flexibility and less excuse to be able to workout (when I had the gym access).

Checking in with everyone. I had a super busy weekends: baby birthday, family reunion - party after party, pizza after pizza. Now I'm very sick of eating pizza, so greasy. After I got home, I just don't feel satisfied without my usually intake of fruits and vegetables. Will feel much better today I hope since I packed lots…

I made 3 scramble eggs with sweet peppers and onions. 1 Trader Joes' hash brown. Was going to have a glass of OJ, and decided to eat a medium size fresh orange instead.

Before start buying maternity pants, try something like this: http://www.cheekymonkey.ca/BellyBelt.htm

Yup, having hard time stomach bad food nowadays myself.

You can also eat lots of vegi to get fiber (or some high fiber cereal). I got pretty much enough fiber daily and I don't need any supplement for that. The prenatal I'm taking contains body-ready heme iron, which it claims no stool softener required. So far, I haven't had much trouble taking it. There is also other prenatal…

Sounds like a great workout! I'm feeling much better this week too, so I resume my run (slow pace and listen to my body).

"Eat Smart for a Healthier Brain" (source WebMD): http://www.webmd.com/diet/guide/eat-smart-healthier-brain I'm sure you can use google to find more info.

Nothing wrong eating cheese at all. Your diary looks great and looks very balanced: * good carb (NO need to cut back any carb) * fresh fruits * vegi * nuts And you are eating your exercises calories back, excellent!!! You seems doing all the right things.

Seriously? You are SO wrong...

* Eat your net calories (1200 is very low, losing 2lb a week sounds like too low of the setting for 30 lb to lose) * eat your exercises calories BACK! good luck

I tried it, but not liking it. Sticking to my CardioTrainer

I always cook it simple: cut slices, sauteed them with a little olive oil, salt and pepper. The natural flavor of summer squash taste good great with simple cooking. Otherwise, google it

Time like this, I will: * set a goal to a store near by (or mailbox if you have something to mail), whatever distance works for walking or biking * walk or ride to the store * buy something small and come back This way you don't keep thinking you are working but a cheaper way to go out to get something. If you get out and…
