Spectacular! You have done a wonderful job. I so get the Mom thing. My pounds just kind of crept up while I was watching after everyone else. Congratulations!

Hey there from an ICU/ER nurse. I know all about the no breaks and eating as you can stuff. I pack lots of snacks in portion size ziplock bags. I eat grilled chicken wraps. I eat fiber one bars. On the plus side I have no difficulty drinking all the water I'm supposed to drink. I drink about 5 liters overnight. I save one…

When they teach new onset diabetics about a diabetic diet, they often say, "yes you have to eat differently, but you are eating the way everyone SHOULD eat". So with that line of thinking I think before I was counting calories I was eating incorrectly. Mainly because I wasn't really paying attention to what I was eating…

What a wonderful accomplishment! Not only have you lost weight and increased your glamour girl rating(grin), you have significantly improved your health. Congratulations. Have you noticed fewer asthmatic episodes since your weight loss. I'm an ER nurse and know some asthma sufferers who can't even walk out in the cold air-…

"lol yesterday someone asked me if I was doing it in a healthy way. I was a little insulted because I breastfeed my baby so why would I take pills and junk and risk her heath? People are stupid!" I would have smiled and said "I'm taking meth" Like would anyone have said "no, I'm not"- LOL

Thank you all for the replies. You're right I should spring for a HRM. The cheap ones do not work well for me. I found a site called sparkpeople that would use my weight and minutes with a kettle bell to figure calories spent. Curious they didn't ask for the weight of the bell. Like y'all suggested I can use the number…

She is stupid and and ugly way down deep. A lot of movies and comedians today use snarky, rude humor; never giving a thought to the impact on the recipient of their lame jokes. She was just trying to be funny in front of her friends. Sad. You are doing great. and that fat is flying off. Go, go, go!

When I started 30DS my weight went up also. Almost 6 pounds almost immediately. On day 6 it started dropping again. You are right it is very disheartening to see the scale go up when you are working so hard. I always log in my food diary, it makes me know "I'm still doing it right" even when the scale doesn't…

Thanks everyone for all the replies. Time to re-evaluate...and eat.

Not trying to be stupid or snarky-just trying to understand theoretically- what will happen if I don't start eating back the calories, will I be at a stand still for a while and then begin losing again, or with a slow metabolism am I very very slowly losing weight? I do understand a slower metabolism but goodness "if the…

Reading over these I think some people try to be clever in the way they address someone's weight loss. and some people are just rude. It seems the best thing to say to someone is "Wow, you look nice" and drop it,unless the person you compliment wants to divulge more

Thank you too, Hungry

thanks nelinelineli, I'm still just thinking about it.

I'm sorry I'm a little off topic but I thought someone in this this thread would know- How do you count your 30 day shred workout in your MFP exercise diary? I'm thinking of starting but I want to count it!

This used to plague me too so I planned for a bowl of cereal at night. Eventually my habit changed but i still leave room for the cereal.
