Mom of a 5 year old beautiful girl and little man that just turned 4. I'm always running around super busy! I have 150 pounds to lose pretty much. Seems scary, and totally not achievable, but here I am starting all over again. Wish me luck. Feel free to add me if you'd like

I'm in!!!!

I'm training to be a good example of my kids. They are only 3 and 1 right now, but that will change before I know it. I need/want to be able to keep up with them. I'm also doing it for myself. I'm tired of feeling like someone twice my age when I get up in the mornings, or even from my chair at work. I'm also tired of…

I like overnight oats. I make them with almond milk, a scoop of my chocolate protein powder, a little bit of honey, and then sometimes I throw in some powdered peanut butter. They take on a pudding consistency and it tastes like a treat. And super filling.

Yep. It's amazing what has dairy in it when you're looking for it. Don't let green beans deceive you. Most places add butter. And most fried foods been dipped in some type of dairy something to make the breading. And even some places grill their buns first and have butter on the grill. It's crazy.

Thanks everyone for the insight! You've given me a lot of great places to start looking!

Sure, why not? Everyone loves a good flirt. ;)

I had to cut out dairy completely when I was breastfeeding my son. If you're going to use almond milk, make sure its the creamer for your coffee. Regular almond milk does something funky. I would use silk soy creamer or the So Delicious coconut milk creamer. So Delicious makes an amazing cashew milk ice cream as well. Do…

Good morning everyone! I'm a full-time working mom of 2 beautiful children. I have a little girl that is 2 and half year old (3 in June) and my little man will be 1 at the end of the month. I was not lucky enough to loose all the weight while breastfeeding either. I put on so much weight when I was pregnant with my…

Pharmacy here. I've got a lot to work on.

Hey, I'm 33 years old and weigh almost 280. It's not the heaviest I've been, but pretty close. I've been doing small challenge groups and that has been super motivational! Feel free to add me.

I've got a 5 and half month old that I'm breastfeeding. In the past 2 weeks I have dropped 7 pounds doing the 21 Day Fix program. I get plenty of food, more than I can eat. I haven't had a problem with supply at all. The program and support has been so awesome that I signed up to coach. Now I'm part of a team to help with…

I started in the same boat. I had the surgery (lapband) and hated it. I still have it, but I made them deflate it when I got pregnant with my daughter. And then I put all the weight back on. Best thing I have found is group encouragement. And I've had online friends help with personal accountability. It's a rough start,…

Mom of 2 as well. A 2 year old and toddler. I need to lose 100. I'm starting with 25 for my first goal. Good luck!

From what I was reading a lot of fast food places add milk for flavoring for all kinds of different things. I used to eat out a lot. I guess I'm just going to be extra careful.

The only sign little man was having issues was blood in his stool. He's not fussy, and only gassy occasionally. So far I've made it about 12 hours dairy free. I really need to do some shopping for replacement food (and I just went to the grocery and bought yogurt and cheeses for low calorie snacks to help loose this…

Thanks so much!

Thanks. Sometimes the recipes some websites have are just crazy. Looking for simple every day stuff a working mom of 2 can put together. Luckily I'm still on maternity leave for this adjustment.

I'm right there with you! I weigh more now than I did when I gave birth. I want to be able to keep up with my baby girl especially since she's walking along furniture now at only 10 months.

I'm 31 and have over 100lbs to loose as well. I have an 8 month old that is now the light of my life and I want to be around for her. I'm trying so hard to get on track and loose the weight. Feel free to add me!
