not sure if the Quinoa burger was mentioned yet. Just made it today, with a little tzatziki on top AMAZING http://eatingwelllivingthin.wordpress.com/2010/11/01/love-my-quinoa-burger/

I don't think I can bend THAT much like in the video (I thought the poor girl was going to smack her head on the table) I need to add that to my list of exercises I can do at home. Thanks

ha I once spilled coffee on my shirt at work so I turned it around, lol most people couldn't see my back at work but when I got up to go to the bathroom they would wonder how the heck I spilt coffee back there ;)

HI I'm Kim mom of a 4 1/2 year old and 2 year old. I used to be able to fit exercise in during nap time, but my 4 1/2 year old no longer naps. So now I"m trying to get up early 3 days a week (mon, wed, fri) I go to this AMAZING class tues and thursday nights. Its like zumba on steriods. As for snacking. I try to have…

people only really started to notice my weight loss when I started to wear cloths that fit (all mine were HUGE) but I never wore the smaller sizes because I hated to go shopping ;) But I agree its all in where you lost it. It sucks when people don't notice, but maybe shes not very observant ? What matters is that you know…

Yes I too am working on my muffin top. Well more of a baby pouch. I have noticed that while loosing weight it is shrinking. I am curious at the other answers too. I think weight loss in general plays a HUGE roll but I also think crunches do help

Sometimes I do sometimes I don't. I don't feel my body will go into starvation mode if once and a while I'm really under because of exercise. I eat my basic allowed calories per day and then sometimes I eat back half my exercise calories, sometimes I eat back all of them, and some days if I'm not hungry I don't eat many of…

looks yummy, saving for later

wow girl you look great. Very inspirational.

welcome back. I'm back too after slacking off in the summer and winter months. Getting mad is good, use it to motivate yourself to stay on track.

I have the 30 day shred and loved it, especially on those days I didn't have a lot of time to workout. I think I'll try a couple of her new ones. I have read the reviews on the kettle ball one and apparently her technique is horrible.. so I might stay away from that one.

I missed both.. but it was because I was at Fuzion (amazing workout) thank god for ondemand :)

I agree if thats the only bad thing you had and you were within you calories all week then its probably just water weight. Or maybe TOM. I like Jillian Michaels 30 day shred. its only a 20 min workout but it was good since it I have to squeeze it in during nap time. Her videos I think are pretty cheap.

I like the above but with goats cheese. I could never stomach blue cheese ;)

Welcome to MFP Sounds like you have a great plan :)

Great job. I agree with the others you usually loose alot in the first few weeks, some is water but your also more aware of what your putting in your mouth and if your like me your body was probably getting alot of bad foods or TOO many calories. It will (unfortuantly lol) slow down.

I'm in. I was in the last one and then sort of stopped doing it so I need to get back into it. Got my bridesmaid dress for OCT, need to have nice arms to fill it out ;) I'll do the sit up one also :)

I'd love to but my instructor is off until sept. And even then classes are only once a week. Like Longmom with two little ones I can't do anymore.

isnt' that the BEST feeling in the world. congrats

bump

:flowerforyou: I'm from Ontario. Welcome ;)

yes I would up your calories, if its been less then a week you might not notice a drop in your supply right away as its probably still trying to regulate itself. the last thing you want is it to drop, as then you'll have to work harder to get it back and you will probably have a very fussy baby. Kellymom is a GREAT…

Welcome to MFP its a great tool to help you in your journey. I'm a mom of 2 also (almost 4 and 19 months) feel free to add me as a friend if you need some support :drinker: :flowerforyou:

hahaha hes probably more embarassed. Laugh it off, your can mention it at their wedding one day ;) Don't worry you will both forget it eventually. hes probably more embarassed then you ;)

I like the Looney spoons ladies they do looney spoons crazy plates and eat shrink and be merry I've noticed that in the begining I didn't have a TON of their spices ect that they used on hand but they use them in alot of recipes so its good to get them They also have some neat tips in the margins like you could eat X…

sounds like they are trying to figure out who is the "alpha male" now that the chow is gone. Not sure what to do though. Do they bark throught the fences? Is it really agressive barking? not all barking means they want to fight. Hope someone can give you some good answers.

YES happy birthday :flowerforyou:

bump marking for later. Thanks sounds good. :flowerforyou:

I'm not a big drinker but what about rum and coke zero? (not sure how it would taste but there really would only be calories in the rum since I think coke zero has either none or like maybe 2)

I probably dropped the weight in the first 3 months or so with exclusivly breastfeeding, but with my last pregnancy I only gained about 20 lbs. Unfortuanlty in the next year I gained it all back and then some :( That being said. MY BODY was not back to "normal" shape even when I lost that 20lbs. So even if you loose the…
