For anyone currently pregnant... I am at 12 weeks and am looking for a few motivated friends.

Girl, I have lost 36 pounds since the beginning of this year. I still have a belly. I have a mama tummy. I can say I have lost 5 inches off of each, my chest, waist, and hips. I can tell you what I've done, maybe it would work for you, maybe not. I followed the Flat Belly diet. It has worked for me in the past. For only…

Mine has been the same. It’s been 3-4 weeks since it’s synced. I’ve been been logging my calories here. Then I check Fitbit to asee how many I’ve burned that day.

However, I am using both apps. Entering all my food and making suite its 500 less than I burned.

My steps and calories are not synced. I have a Fitbit charge 2 my husband has charge 3. His is synced.

Martha_VH. I don't need a ton, but a few positive friends would be nice. :)

Also a cup of fruit tea has helped me at night.

I'm not always 100% clean. But trying to get there. I can be your friend. My goals right now are to cut out excess sugar. Only natural sugar right now. And I have to choose between meat and cheese. If I eat meat, no fatty cheese and vice versa.

Ok, thanks for letting me know.

I am down another 1.5 pounds this week!

am_change, staying the same is okay sometimes. You didn't gain.

So TOM came to visit. Every time he comes, well it's not pretty. I might not weigh myself this week, because I usually just get discouraged, even though I know it's hormones.

I am also down 3 pounds this week! I thought for sure I would not lose anything because of Memorial day, and then we had friends over for dinner this week.

Or sleeping in! Sleeping in past 6:45 doesn't really happen too much any more. :)

Hey Shannon! Your pregnancy sounds a lot like mine did. My little girl is nine months now. I think I had preclampsia, I had HORRIBLE swelling. This time last year, I could barely climb a flight of stairs. My own weight was up to 235 or 240 right before giving birth. I ended up not having a C-Section but it was a close…

Welcome. Congrats on your new baby! I too need to lose about 70 pounds to be at a healthy weight. However, that's very daunting to tell myself that. I am telling myself, "I just need to lose 5 pounds." My goals are: 1. Lose 15 pounds of baby weight 2. Lose 25 more (this was about as thin as I was able to get the last…

I love your goals. I am trying to make more of our own food. It is cheaper, and healthier. I am not saying I can never have a treat. I found that if I totally deprive myself of something, I end up craving it and having a binge later. I am trying to eat less chocolate and salty/processed snacks though. I found that if I…

My little girl is 9 months now. She is starting on table food. I just give her a little bit of what we eat. she doesn't do well with meat yet. But she loves cereal, noodles, veggies and fruits. We ate Chinese. I gave her some of the noodles, she loved them.

Hi Cindy, I am currently a stay at home mom. I am also trying to be fit again. Let's be friends and support each other. :)

Try making your own pizza. You can make it with so many less calories.

Aha, I spelled it wrong. Shiitake

You look great! You worked very hard to get where you are now. I think you look younger!

Congratulations! You are so close!

congratulations! You look beautiful, and inspire me to keep going!

Yum, thanks!

I have been using Shaklee 180. It has leucine, which is an amino acid that helps muscles recover after a workout. Most times I use it as meal replacement, but its also wonderful as a recovery drink after a hard workout. I also enjoy that fact that they have 4 flavors instead of just chocolate and vanilla!

Hahaha, yes, let's burn it up. Its cold here, I could use a good fire anyhow! In all seriousness though, I really struggle with this as well. Before Thanksgiving, I was so close to 160 pounds, and then after the Holidays I gained back 20 and thought, "all my hard work down the drain!" I still struggle with emotional…

I am happy because its my day off! :) And I am going to stick to my calorie goal today!

I like all cottage cheeses I have tried. I enjoy making a cottage cheese salad, with cucumber, green pepper, and some cherry tomatoes, sometimes a bit of Italian seasoning. Very yummy on top of a serving of wheat thin crackers!

You look great! Your hard work and dedication have really paid off!
