I am a first time mom as well. My little one just turned a year... I used brestfeeding as a excuse to eat more and not log my calories. Anyway feel free to add me.

Hello, I am a mother of a one year old, but am hoping 3 more. Feel free to add me.

I have also delt with infertility and loss. My story is on my profile. But I will say two things 1. Losing weight can help, I lost 20 lbs and became pregnant. The articles I read say as little as 5 lbs can make all the differance. 2. If you have been trying for over a year you should go to the doctor something may be…

Thanks everyone. You are right I just need to change my determination from the fear of not having a baby. To being the best role model and mother I can be for her. My mother never seamed to care about her weight and taught me to over eat and drink tons of soda. I need to make the change so that my baby can see what you…

I agree with the music... I hated walking... then I realized I paced when I listened to my MP3 player... After that I just went outside with my MP3 and ended up at going all across town.

Welcome back. I am also back for the new year!

The best place I have found for bra's for big people ( 40 G here) is on Herroom.com. They help you find the right bra style for you, and have a huge selection.

Hello, Welcome to myfitnesspal! You are welcome to add me if you like; I don't have anxiety but I do Comfort eat, come from a large built family and I moved away from home. I moved 1000 miles away from all of my family to marry a wonderful husband and start a family. I was around 180 at the time of my wedding... Three…

Hello, Welcome back!... I'm also back to this site again for the new year! I gained a bunch of baby weight and then was hungry, and dealing with a baby so I just ate and ended up at my highest weight ever.

no... not really saying it is bad for everyone... my husband uses aspertame... I just don't believe its good for everyone... I possibly have a allergy to it... but then so does my mother... wouldn't be unheard of... but... that is not a normal allergic reaction so its just the aspertame gives me headaches. And yes... The…

I didn't reed the article... However, to those of you who think its safe, I have to disagree, from personal experience; it gives me Headaches, Anything that randomly give me headaches is BAD in my book. My husband does OK with it and uses it in his drinks... but I've found even a little and I feel bad... for a while I was…

Chicken Tetrazini... Very healthy, 12 servings 342 calories a serving.(with 2 peppers, Onions and 3 Celery stalks) Raw Chicken 1.25 Lb Fresh Mushrooms (8oz) Celery (2-4 stalks) Bell Pepper (1-2) Onion (1-2) Thin Spaghetti ( Whole Grain is Our preference) 1 Package Shredded Parmesan (6oz) 1 Package Sliced Mozzarella (12…

I guess the underlying problem is I feel so pressured to make everything about the MIL, and get the baby ready for my MIL's pictures with my baby... the day wasn't about me at all, Maybe it will be better when My daughter is old enough to know whats going on. Maybe I just feel like My MIL acts like she's the only mother in…

How many times do I have to point out that I HAVE NOT PROBLEM with my husband going out with his mother on mothers day... just not sure if me and my child are meant to be involved in that or if we should have our own mothers day.

I just didn't realize it was normal behavior to include everyone... somehow I thought it was about my relationship with my daughter.

My husband doesn't care.... He just agrees when his mom goes "your buying me ---- for mothers day" the MIL is the one who initiates everything... in fact shes going so overboard with Fathers day its STRESSING THE FATHER out.

Thank you for that... This is the only post of the night that has givin me helpful advice without making me feel like a jerk.

I guess I Just have no idea about mothers day... My family growing up didn't celebrate it... I made my mom something... and that was it... We didn't go out to eat... My mothers mom was dead... My father usually wasn't talking to his mom... and no one was willing to wait in lines to go to dinner... there was no taking out…

Didn't make it up. LOOKED IT UP... its a official USA holiday... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Grandparents_Day

No, I don't think I would... because MY DAUGHTER deserves to have her mothers day. And I think that knowing I will be a young widower... My husband is 45. (Yeah I know you guys will think I'm even more horrible knowing that). But seriously did None hear me say we could start a new tradition of having GRANDPARENTS day? you…

See now This one sounds Awesome... But I guess I'm a horrible person because I think we spend enough time with Grandma... she comes over Once a week... we take her to the chiropractor once a month... and every holiday but the ONE I get to spend with my family...

Maybe it is selfish... but Isn't it MY day too? I gave birth to a daughter this year, I also thought that My husband could go out with his mother to celebrate with just them, and then start including GRANDPARENTS day... did you read that far? Is that a bad compromise?

You had a great day... and spent it with family you don't see often, nothing wrong with splurging a little every now and then. Besides, the calories per day is great, but your body doesn't really care what day you were over or under... I found I relaxed so much more, when i stopped worrying so much about per day calories;…

Well... My mom wore a white and black dress to my wedding, but she also knew me and my husbands colors were black and white. I really think the white to a wedding really depends on the dress. If it is a pure white formal no... A white formal with a blue jacket or highlights sure... a causal white sure... causal white with…

OK! Thanks everyone, its interesting that with the HRM it the stroller only adds 50 calories. I expected it to be more than that. I'll just keep using the regular exercise.

Don't worry about it too much. A trip to China is a trip you will never forget. Plus, You should know that Chinese food is often very salty, if you weren't packing away the water to make up for that then much of that 3.3lbs could simply be retained water from all the salt and will come off easily.

You know.. I always thought sharing a bed and cuddling with my husband would be nice... But it tuns out... that I cant sit sill long enough to cuddle... and he twitches, at the exact right time to scare the **** out of me... every time... so we must make sure we are not touching... Then there's the fact that he always had…

It is not safe to continue dieting once you know you are pregnant. The only exception to that is if you are morbidly obese. While pregnant a woman in a normal weight range should gain 25-35lbs, through the pregnancy. As far as how many calories above maintenance you need, it only 300. My doctors told me a safe calorie…

I'm noticing a couple of things with your diary. 1: You eat very, small meals though the day, and then a ton of calories in snacks. 2: Your portions are very very small. You are doing great with the nutrient dense healthy foods... but those foods also have a lot of calories. 3: Some days your water intake is low. So My…

I got pregnant after loosing 20 lbs on this site. I asked my doctors what would be OK for a calorie limit and we agreed upon 2000. For pregnancy you should be eating at a maintenance (min) and adding at least 300 calories. I will say that you need to not worry about gaining weight. you look very skinny in your photo, witch…
