If it's not there, you can't eat it. You should be very proud of yourself. That was an awesome show of the strenght you have inside of you. Me? If I had been there with you, I might have dove right into the trash can after them!

Talk with your doctor, but I think losing weight is not the way to go. You're gonna want to maintain as long as possible. As the baby grows you should be gaining weight. You MUST talk to your doctor about the best way to handle this.

I've never heard of it. :(

Yeah...I'm thinking I'll keep to my group and stray no more!!

You found a rude reply to a post? I was shocked when I read your post. Granted, I have not had the time to read every post, but I don't remember ever reading one that was rude. I've read inspirational ones and insightful ones, educational ones and simply helpful ones, lots have made me laugh out loud and with some I shed a…

Great job! This is just the place to help you. Everyone here is awesome!

I am really new at this (tomorrow will be day 15) and I don't have a scale. I think that when it comes to lettuce, the "eyeball" measuring system is sufficient. Then again...what my eyeballs and my mirror were telling me was sooooo much nicer than what my scale told me. Yep, getting a scale today and weighing everything…

Ireland5 - I'm new to this too. So new that I don't even know if this is going to be a message directly to you or just a post at the end of your blog that you may never read. I can only hope that you do read it and act upon it. I know that almost everyone is telling you to get to your dr ASAP but I'm still gonna repeat it.…

Wow! These stories are amazing!!

Reading about all the rewards was so much fun and gave me some really great ideas. I haven't yet made a short term weight goal so maybe the idea of a reward will help me do that. My husband suggested 5lbs by the end of the month and I told him that 5 pounds was a tiny drop of water in an oversized bucket when compared to…

I'm fairly new to this site, and I've not tried any other ones, but I really like the positive attitude and great support. I agree with six1908 (with the southern accent) "Y'all are awesome".

Try mashed cauliflower - cook and drain the cauliflower, use mixer on low (or mash with a fork) and slowly add skim milk to get it to the consistency you want. Add salt and pepper and even a small dab or two squirts of butter. I found that if I had a bite right after a bite of meat or even with the meat it was like eating…

Wow! What a response! So many offers of friendship! I send one friend request and two or three more posts pop up. My husband is calling me in for dinner so I've got to go but I will post again tomorrow. Thanks, everyone, for making me feel so welcomed!

Thank you! I'm hoping to make MFP my new "habit"!
