  • I am currently following Dr. Mike Dow's Diet Rehab program. The book explains what you are lacking, either you are serotonin or dopamine deficit, or both. I'm serotonin deficit, therefore I crave sweets. I'm also a binge eater with sweets. I'm in the first week into the program and my body is going through withdrawal and I…
  • On my rest days are actually my yoga/flexiblilty training days. I CAN NOT take a day off, if I do I have a really hard time getting back into my exercise routine.
  • This! My husband asked me after a stressful day if I needed to "stress eat." I said no and the first thing that came to mind was I need a good workout to sweat my stress out. I was proud of myself for wanting to turn to exercise than food. But it's always going to be an ongoing battle!
  • I had the same issue. I was drinking a ton of water everyday, so I knew it didn't have anything to do with being dehydrated. But I did add a banana to my diet and the leg cramps are less frequent.
  • I make a large batch of boiled eggs once a week and I eat three boiled egg whites every morning. I also don't eat cooked oatmeal but I do eat it dry with cinnamon, dark chocolate and chopped prunes. Then I also eat fiber one with skim milk. Super easy breakfast and most of it can be made the night before.
  • When my kids stress me out, I put in a workout DVD and sweat out my frustration! Instead of eating or biting your nails, try writing down your feelings, putting your youngest in stroller and going for a walk, take a timeout for yourself...just stay busy!
  • Turbo Fire is awesome!
  • Search for "breastfeeding" in the food database and add it daily. My milk supply went down due to loss of calories, so be careful. I added oatmeal to breakfast everyday, that seemed to help increase my supply. Good luck to you!
  • I track calories, carbs, fat, protein, fiber and sugar. My goal for the end of the day is to have the calories, carbs and fats in the green; and the protein and fiber in the red. I'm almost always in the red for sugar due to natural sugar in fruits and veggies, which I don't worry about too much.

  • If you can't do a push-up, start by doing a push-up against a wall, then progress to a bench or step. Then you should be able to do them on your knees, then progress to toes. You could also try doing a few at a time a couple times a day until you build up strength to do many at a time.
  • I bought mine on ebay.
  • I usally eat a banana and have a glass of water when the kids wake up (around 6:30). Then I eat breakfast with the kids (around 8). Lunch at noon. I work out during kids naps (around 1:30) and eat a small snack (around 3). Eat dinner at 6. Then have another snack around 8:30 or 9. I can not snack all day instead of eating…
  • Congratulations!
