Hi there, Would like to join in, I lost 50 pounds over a year ago, now with baby #4 is 2 months I have those pounds plus more to lose. Stopped drinking pop and sweet drinks New Years Eve, have not started a serious calorie count yet, looking for motivation. I am exclusively breast feeding and hungry all the time, so that…

Thanks for some encouragement! I wish I knew where the original motivation went. I was able to pass on the sweets for such a long time, but no longer, after i eat my meal all I can focus on is what sweet item I can top it off with. I need to really switch it up at this point, so I am at day 4 of my new attempt and I have…

Thank you for all the responses, I like that I can connect with moms who get it and can still tell me to get going! I feel amazing after the 50 pound weight loss and know that I will never go back (FX) I feel that I am kinda in a slump because I can afford to lose another 50 and need to connect with those feelings that it…

This is the same scenario that has me in a rut right now, I fell apart during thanksgiving and can not get back on track. I will bake a cake and eat a lot of it, I do not buy the cake, I pull the ingredients from the cup board and bake it. I find I go in cycles for cravings, yes I understand this is a lifestyle change, yes…

I am 5'6" and have lost 44 pounds, well I am up a few since thanksgiving unfortunately. Was hoping to be further along and have not kept a photo log of my progress unfortunately. I feel great though and wish I had some better self control with sweets as the next 40 will be really hard.

My goal is 12500 a day, this means one vigorous 35 minute walk and one 10minute walk during my breaks. Then its chasing children when I am home from work and voila 12500 steps are taken. I have stalled at 44 pounds lost but I contribute that to not keeping calories in check. I did run around the house to get my 20000 step…

Thanks, congrats on your first 15 too. I also have excellent blood pressure now too. Lots of positive changes, going to purge all my clothes now for the next size down.

YES! I too suffered with severe heel spurs at my heaviest. And when pregnant with twins I thought my knees were shot. I can hustle up 7 flights of stairs, walk 45 minutes and chase said twins and 1 year old with NO tylenol for pain anymore. I have a long way to go but down 44 pound and feel younger now than in my early…

KIYY If I could eat like that I would not be having this weight problem :D

I am a work in progress. I was 299 pounds the day my twins were born ( and a tad lighter shortly after :D) but still when I posted that number on the scale I was amazed. Shocked, stupified, but not quite ready to do anything about it..... After baby #3 I was stuck at 262 and rising. Today I am 220ish. Walk, eat within your…

Sucks to be me! In my defense I was on holidays for 2 weeks which threw my routine way off! Started 10 day cereal challenge to get back on track. Today is day 2, chewing sugar free gum, yum! SW: 262 Aug 1: 219 Sept 1: 221 UGH! Goal at Christmas 199 I can do this!

Shake things up, I will eat cereal for 5-10 days twice a day, broke my plateau instantly but did mess with my head in I thought I should reward myself after for doing so well, hence 1000 calorie overage. Just my 2cents.

So I stopped buying chocolate bars, or muffins, pop etc, now I have to get rid of the cocoa and chocolate chips from the cupboard so I stop whipping up a batch of cookies or a cake. Chewing gum like a crazy person lately too and over dosed on blueberries, turned into a major laxative mistake.

12000 steps a day, 1400-1600 calories. Struggling with a sweet tooth lately so trying to get a handle on it.

45 minutes of fast walking pushing a stroller with toddlers in tow on bicycles.

Hi Ansin, I own the vertigenius cuiZen rotisserie and love it. Roast whole chickens are easy and delicious. We also make chicken thigh schwarma as there are different accessories for it. Good luck.

Usually 45 min walking and stairs ( 6 flights to my office, have not taken the elevator in 3 months and leave the office multiple times) but on holidays currently, only did 15 minutes walking today, my twins were slowing me down! Lol.

Here I go! Start weight: 220 Goal Weight: 199 by Christmas day. Final Goal..... 150? 160? Lbs to Lose: 21 (70) 08/01: 220 09/05: 10/03: 11/07: 12/05: 12/26:<<<GOAL WEIGHT>>> I can do this!

Hi Everyone, I am a 40 year old mother of twin 3 year olds and a 1 year old. I found the scale saying 271 last Christmas and thought if I want to keep up with these kids I better lose some weight, and thus it began. I detoxed from sugar and caffeine ( very hard first few weeks). I want to hit One-derland, so about 21…
