The only exercise I get is walking and gardening. But it's always been that way. I'm currently and nearly got off what I gained from my 3rd child. I spend the time he's in nursery walking aroung the seaside town so it's a very pleasant 3hrs. As we live on the coast this time of year is great cause we can walk on the…

I've found it harder as i've got older. I had my 3rd child 2 yrs ago and I gained the most I had from a pregnancy. The whole time was completely different causeing me ro gain straight away instead of lose. I'm 38 now and last yr I made soo many stupid mistakes I only lost 21lbs and gained back 12 since it got cold in…

I actually challenged myself to lose 7lbs during the schools 6 weeks holiday. SW: 179.6 CW: 158.6 GW: 140 JULY 30 I WEIGHED 162.6 AUG 13 I WEIGHED 158.6 4lbs gone,3 weeks left of the summer holiday and 3 lbs left to get off. only 1.5 lbs away from my pre pregnancy weight. i'm very happy with my progress.

My latest baby is now 19months but I waited a yr before trying to rid the weight. 18lbs down so far . I have the goal to be 147 by my birthday in October but I want to reach 140 aswell. I haven't been able to get under that since I started using mfp 5 yrs ago after having my 2nd child. Again I waited a yr.

I think most mums are upset to apoint with having an emergency section with their first baby. 5months isn't very long and it may take a good year to come to terms with it. But don't let it take control. It sounds like you may have postnatal depression. I've had 3 sections and all 3 healed differently,my first was an…

Since jan 8th i've lost 18lb. Only 4lbs to go to pre pregnancy weight but my main goal is to reach the weight I was before I gained a stone the winter before becoming pregnant which is 14lbs away.

You can only add it as exercise if it's not an everyday activity. That's why there's different setting for activity. If the person want to add work as an exercise then they have to have it set on the non active which then gives the lowest calories that can be eaten. If they've set it as active or very active they should be…

The best way to check if you're over eating is to add up the weeks food eaten and deduct the exercise calories. You will then see you true calorie intake for the week. That's why eating them back works cause they have already been used. There's no need to go hungry what so ever.

Personally I found mfps counts was wrong for me to the point I bought a chest band HRM to find out my really calorie usage 3or4 years ago. I found I was using up more than mfp was telling and it explained why I was still losing 3lbs regularly though it looked like I was eating way to much. I found some walks I did was…

you may be thirsty cause thirst can make you feel like your hungry but you only realised when it's too late. to be honest i have a late breakfast half the time or miss it due to being busy. Anyway 11 is still the morning so you can class that as breakfast,I know i do then find i'm wanting lunch around 2 or 3 pm. it doesn't…

I'm 5 ft 3, current weight is 169 and aiming for 140

I'm due 4th. I could do with some more ladies due around the same time as me.

gained 12lbs with my daughter I'm 9 weeks with my 3rd and have put on 10lbs. about 5 or 6 is bloat. this pregnancy is different to my other 2 and i think i will weigh agood stone more this time round.

When it comes to baby foods i found my daughter very early on loved buttnernutsquash and sweetpotato mashed together as it no only tasted really nice but it was sweet, its a really good combination. If you have baby rice and they don't seem to like it much as lots if babies don't i used up the boxes i had that my daughter…

Hi I'm 8 weeks today and have a 3 and 16 year old. I've been really bloated and constipated so I haven't felt to well and ontop of this my blood sugar has gone crazy so I'm finding myself eating carbs ever hour or more or i start to become ill. It's not a nice feeling. I'm having aversons and craving. Looks like I 'll be…

Thanks . I'm an idot hahaha it's out now cause i forgot when i start a new topic it shows on my wall. Nevermind. I'm taking centrum prenatal vitamins. I'm fatigued and having some cravings and really not interesting in food at the same time. I just don't seem to be able to think what to eat,i also don't feel to bothered…

3lbs of xmas fat off and the hrm is showing me what i thought. As the difference between mfp and the hrm is 690 cals more than mfp would have told me i had lost over the 4 days that i have used it so far Just having a small problem of getting my protein at the right level every day. But i have found low fat cottage cheese…

Trying out Macros,got and HRM finally and i've lost 2lbs Yay.

So far all thats happened for me is being ill. 2014 hasn't start how i was hoping but I've forced myself to get my daughter to pre-school and I walked 6 miles back and forth in town while doing the shopping. I've set my amount of food at 2000 and not eating back what i burn as i'm getting enough really as I'm eating 2000…

I'm not weighing myself till february as I'm getting back into logging and someone on my frinds list was doing the sameso afew of…

Hi I've been using mfp for a year but first joined dec 2011 but only added it to my new phone looking for calorie counters. I've had 3 profiles in total,I made the mistake of adding to many under eaters and it drove me a bit mad,so i now try to stay away from adding anyone eating under 1200 and not eating back the cals.…

you can do it through the ticker setting,I've done it several times. you can do it in the other setting too it's easy to change.
