yeah. that's part of why I choose to learn sewing. more things i can make that I can actually use. before joining MFP, I probably would never have admitted my weight. but now it's like, ah whatever. Theres no judgement just support

thats so cool you can crochet! I would love to knit to crochet. I can olny sew. Lately I've been making my son cloth dipaers :)

thanks for starting this Cari. Hi all. I'm corinne. I live in Hawaii. I have a 3.5 y/o girl and a 6.5 month old boy. they definitely keep me on my toes. I try to do some freelance writing from home, but most days all i get done is chasing a crawling baby around. He's much more active than my daughter was. My starting…

Week 4 thighs: 22R 21L arms: 22.5 waist: 34 hips: 36 chest : 36 I went down an inch in one thigh, my waist, my hips and chest. total 4 inches lost

Jackee, you are awesome for organizing all of this go team 2!

sounds great!

I want to join. I'm 30 (31 in October) with 2 kids, 3 y/o girl and a 6 m/o boy. I'm trying to lose the famous baby weight. I plan to exercise 5x a week. My off days are Sun and MOn when hubby is home :) I will eat better. Just started 30 DS today and hope to pick up INsanity from my friend next week. edit: I'm about 145…

I'm in on this one

Week 3 thighs: 44 arms: 22.5 waist: 35 hips: 37 chest : 37 Only lost a little in my arms. I wasn't exercising as much as I should have and it shows :( this week will be better

count me in!

done!

breaking out the mini stepper again!

I'd like to give it a try. Mondays are my rest days (the hubby is off) but I'm going to give it my all Tues- Sat. That would still be 5000 jumping jacks. holy cow that's a lot!

done!

this one I can do!

I'm in!

im in!

Week 2 Thighs: 44 arms: 23 waist: 35 hips: 37 chest: 37 lost 2 inches total!

I did it! I did it! I stopped just for a second to catch my breath after 100 and finished off 200!

subbing so I can find this tomorrow. I'm going to try to do as many as I can at once. doubt it will be the whole 200 though

This thread is great for ideas! tnx for starting it We usually keep: milk (almond for me, cow for everyone else, and extra cow's milk to make yogurt with) fruits: banana, apples, grapes, strawberries veggies: baby spinach, romaine lettuce, onions, carrots, frozen broccoli rice cakes peanut butter eggs whole wheat bread…

lost one pound this week. Was hoping for more but whatcha gonna do? I'm still exclusively nursing my son so I guess I really shouldnt be losing too fast anyway.

can I join this? I'm in a irritated, frustrated, pissy mood today. I need something to get me out of my funk this morning. I'll be back when I have the challenge done. I have a mini stepper so I'll be using that edit: Done! I actually feel much better. My heart rate went up a little and got some juice in my leg muscles.

this is a very good point. he's not nursing nearly as much as he did when he was a newborn. I just used "bf exclusively" cause he still is bf exclusively at this point.

it's hard isnt it? If I eat crap I can do it LOL. but when I eat well, it dont get enough calories.

If I add breastfeeding to my food diary, if shows up as a 500 cal deficit. I could drink more almond milk I guess. my son is sensative to dairy and soy so I'm limited on options there. do you think I'm just not getting enough calories? My milk supply is fine, but the weight is just creeping slowly off

thanks. It hasn't affected my supply as far as I know. and he's definitely eating well. he's almost 6 months and 20 pounds, maybe a little more. He will be starting solids soon so I wont be nursing quite as much. I just want to make sure I should be eating back the calories that nursing and exercising burns

I dont count nursing as exercise, but I do count it in my food diary. it minuses 500 calories when I add it. so I eat that back so I get that extra 500 to make some good milk. plus I still workout and eat some of that back.

go team red! anyone can add me if they wish. 500 calories? yikes! I'll definitely give it a try

weird, it wont let me edit Goal: 3 inches Week 1 measurements Thighs: 44 inches (this number was doubled) Arm: 11.5 right 12 left Waist: 35.5 inches Hips: 37.5 inches Chest: 37.5 inches
