I feel your pain! I reached my goal and happy with my current weight, but now im starting (year latter) to carve for sugary foods, and its taking me over.

There will be hard times and times you will want to give up and "just last sweet", take this journey day by, if you slip, dont give up, but get back on track with next meal and you WILL DO IT!!

Most of my goals are craft based :D but regards weight, i think i wouldnt mind to swap ~ 10 lbs of fat with 10 lbs of muscles, i like the way i look now (i was lighter in one stage, but looked gray and unhealthy), but still have some "wobbly" parts. So thats my next year's goal.

I dont track sugar seperatly, but carbs are low for me, protein high, cause in breastfeeding. But i dont drink juices - i prefer to use those 100 kcal/glass for tuna etc.

Have a look at Victoria Beckham poses, i think she is really good in posing, she always keeps the same for perfect pictures.

At least 5 days a week my day starts like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWjTnBmCHTY followed by "buns" and "legs" If kids still in one piece and house isnt in fire, then i do these http://www.bodyrock.tv/category/daily-workouts/archives/workout-routine-for-absolute-beginners/ taking one by one during day between…

soups tuna (in brine) rice (etc) crackers instead of bread and if something dont keep you full for hour or two, then simply DONT eat that product (i had this issue with pasta and cornflex - i could eat huge bowl, but hour later my stomack would scream for food literary) my breakfast would be bowl of mixed salads + seeds +…

cheeky :devil:

i give away most of my BIG clothes, lucky had summer so sorted myself with couple cheap jeans and dresses inbetween. I still have 2 dresses and skirt, what im considering to put in ebay, as they were expensive and worn just once (for wedding, one is smthing like bridesmaid dress in dark plum colour, other formal dress in…

i dont have scales, just wii :D so i dont know if its any different, but whats important for me - that im loosing wheight, doesnt matter 2 or 4 lbs, as long as its a "loss". I have my board on carpet (but i tried it on coffee table :D and results were the same, so short carpet doesnt make difference), so i try to stick…

Im 29 with 9 yr DS, 3 yr old DD & DS and 9 mth old DD. Im almost at the end of my journey, but not planing to leave this site, as i check time after time my calorie goals. And will be counting my kcals again when i will finish breastfeeding, at the moment i have found perfect excersise and food balance.

:flowerforyou: you look stunning! p.s. good for you having that ex :devil:

You can came to my house any time you want! Changing linen is only part i dont like :D

Great job! You are so lucky to have friend like yours! I love your excitment :)

I have not a clue how to add pics! Just wanted to say i have some - 33 lbs ones :D

Oh, i would love that test, just to show others (sure they are just nice and concerned people), that i DONT need to eat more than 1000 kcal, to MAINTAIN my weight.

I was the same first two months (i have 4 little ones, one of them breastfeeding), had to eat at least 2 slices of bread with something, then i swaped one bread with salads and fruit - i get more iron (tomatoes) and protein (fish, chicken), loads of vit C (salads and fruits) and since then i actually feel more energetic…

Peanutbutter (without sugar!) on toast and slices of fruit on top (apples taste great) - couldnt be faster! :D

Green leaves (salads) + smoked marcrel/smoked salmon/tuna in brine (without brine) + fresh cucumber/tomatoe + Furikake (seasoning, japanese, with toasted sesamee seeds and seaweed) + Ume plum sauce (tastes like salty water, not vinegary at all) + you can add peppers if you like plum sauce…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWjTnBmCHTY Does miracles on my abs. No more "6 mths pregnant" look after eating, and i excersised just for week!

Its simple - muscles weight more than fat. Better measure yourself and you will see changes.

What a beautifull woman you have been hiding! :flowerforyou: Have you tried lymph masage regarding skin? Im doing it myself and it works for me, even on poor tummy (had 4 babies, inc twins, loads of strechmarks, very deep around belly button area, was 49.5 inch in my waist when pg, i wouldnt say im "elastic" person, cause…

Thanks! I DOES feels great! Looking forward to next size :drinker: I was acctualy sqeezed in my previous jeans :embarassed: with "love handles" hanging over.

I eat huge breakfast, fruits & snacks before 3PM and last meal ~ 5 PM. Going to bed ~ 10 PM and up 6AM. When i do workouts in mornings, midway i have 1 Alpro soya yougurt - it keeps me going and i dont need to eat soon after workout. I dont eat products with lactose, cut out most wheat products (there are still couple…

Looks like you relaxed (as everything what caused stress, sorted out great), so you body desided to relax too. You are just mean and dont want it to have fun. LOL You know 18lbs in 8 weeks is quick drop, so you will need to stay here for a while, while you will learn to eat small for life.

it depends.. only you know your body the best ive been there twice - counted kcal on my own after first child (not huge fan of excersising, but still had long walks and moderate cycling), i did it for 6 mths, to be sure i learn how much i eat (everything was fantastic for couple years, no weight gain, until i fell in love…

We bought kids musli bar maker (i like them better than granola bars :D but i think its the same idea more or less, so i post it here) http://www.character-online.com/lets-cook-toys/lets-cook/cereal-bar-factory/ and tried it out today. Its fabulous! Havent tried recipe with jelly cristals (that looks most dietic), made one…

Happy Mothers Day! You wouldnt believe it - my breakfast in bed included fruit salad!!!! :)

Its a winter here, but i have cherry tomato plant on one windowsill (and its producing tomatoes all the time, self-fertilising) and greens on other (radishes, dill, parsley, lettuce, thyme, peppermint, chives). Def will plant more in greenhouse.

So far very good - no bad days, full with energy, every spare time (like i have one with 4 kids :D ) im on wii. Lots of support form kids (checking that im not cheating while exercising ) and husband.
