This is wonderful to see!! I run into this problem. But here is where mine gets bad! My kids are picky and my husband wants things like potatoes at every meal, big lunches, and bacon in his green beans. He turns his nose up to my healthy cooking. I can handle my kids by just telling them to make a sandwich or eats loads of…

I love this post ! I was wondering the same thing!

Thank you guys. I will get a heart rate monitor. any suggestions on a good one? Yea, I do not want to over estimate.

Thanks you guys! I will just try my best and hope I am happy with the results. I know many people would argue and say, "you had kids, what do you expect?" But if I can make it better, I will. lol.

Yes, I have the same reactions from people. lol!

Thanks! Sometimes people make me second guess my self when I get those crazed looks. I will make a goal and just reevaluate as time and weight go by.

From what I have read it is good to eat with in an hour of waking. So the banana and water sounds like a really good idea. Light enough on your stomach, yet you are still giving your body something.

Thanks everyone. I will go find a really good shoe store. The glove shoes look weird and cool if that is possible. lol.

I have the same question. Bump**

You have such a positive attitude! Slower is better, but very hard. Good Job!

Personally, I would tell her that being over weight and never exercising is unhealthy. As long as he is eating enough not loosing weight, I would think it would be fine. However, it never hurts to have the back up of a doctors opinion. I have a child with JRA and asthma, so I see the doctor a lot. So I am assuming you…

Everyone is different and you are probably gonna have to play around with your calories like pp said. Don't stop working out!! It is a good thing to do to maintain your health even if you are not trying to loose.

Add me! I am a stay at home mom with four kids. I understand how busy you can get.

Thanks! Yes, I think I will just stay away from the dried fruit. Maybe, some every once in a while.

I am a stay at home mom. I have four kids, two are in school. I am also trying to get my nursing degree, so I understand the busy life.

Thanks!

Thank you to all of you! I will definately incorporate the suggestions. I will try to keep track of what makes me feel fuller. And yes, I do need to increase my water in take.

Awesome, Jaime!:smile:

Wow! I have known many family memebers like your sister. You are doing good by taking care of yourself and even though your weight loss may be slower than hers, it will be gone for good, as long as you continue. Focus on yourself. Obviously, talking to her is not doing yourself any good, show her.

I have done that one before. I felt like I wa going to have a full blown panic attack too. lol.
