Everyone here could add me as well. 76lbs down, 75lbs to go

I actually had 2 babies. And now I'm pregnant again. I lost 80lbs after the first baby, so the sugar rule does work. The only reason I didn't keep it off is because I got pregnant again, lost the weight. And then I'm pregnant now again. So yes to that person who said I still have a lot of weight to lose, I'm carrying a…

Oh wow, I didn't realized this had 4 pages of comments... Yes it was not water weight. I could eat as many calories as I wanted a day as long as I stuck to the 15grams a day. At first I had headaches for the first few days because I wasn't used to it. But after that I felt great. I did it until I got pregnant about half a…

Thank you =)

I thought this too. I'd rather have a protein powder that's high in protein (since in my mind you're buying it for the protein anyway hence the name) & then if I need more vitamins to take a multi-vitamin or get them by eating lots of fruits and vegis. Thank you all for the advice, it's been very helpful =)

Also, if you're just going to tell me what brand you like to use, please tell me why. Other wise it's just like telling me you like Pepsi over Coke and not why you think it's better. =) Thank you!

I've always thought being 5'6 at 150 would be fine if I had a size C or small chest. I'm suppose to be a max of 150lbs to be healthy, but my boobs are DD so I'm comfortable at 160. Which makes sense because that'd be 10lbs total! =)

Depo shot, to prevent pregnancy, you get it every 3months. I only had it 3mo and wont go back on it because i can't lose weight on it.

Of course AFTER I would post this then I'd find it.... It is mapquest. Above were you would put the first adress there is 3 options, driving, transit, walking. Tada! Sorry if you read this post for nothing... But maybe you learned something new? It's a pretty neat way to check how long/far a walk would be if you were your…

Sorry, forgot to answer that one. No, he's on formula. I'd like to go for walks with them but it's cold out of that now =P I try to do Zumba when they're both down for naps at the same time.

Thanks. Sally I'm doing this because I'm at 220lbs and I want to be 160. I want to be healthy again. Look and feel smaller than I am. I don't want my stomach hanging over my pants, or my thighs rubbing together when I walk. Overall I just want to feel and look more attractive and that involves being healthy as well. I…

Okay, sorry it took a few days but here's my story! I had a scheduled c-section at 11:30am on 8/7/12, and had to stop eating and drinking 8hrs before (3:30am). I actually stopped eating at 11:30pm instead of 3:30am because I was tired and figured I'd be sleeping most of the time anyway. We had to be at the hospital 2hrs…

This time tomorrow I'll be getting my c-section. I'm pretty nervous, but it's not the first time so I know I'll be okay. The house is almost ready for baby Logan, but I still have to clean the boys room & the bathroom. Right now I'm thankful for a small house =P I'm a little annoyed with myself. I use to weight 209, but…

Sugar- Don't worry, putting in a carseat is super easy =)... As for the list I was told: clothes, toiletries, pjs, something to keep you buys like a book/movies, slippers/shoes, camera, phones. And for the baby, clothes, blanket, carseat, nuk, diaper bag..... Be worned about your weight =P I was just told yesterday that…

I had my ob appt today and another ultrasound. The dr said that baby measuring 6lb 1oz so far! It's so strange how he has such chubby cheeks for only being 6lbs! Even thought we always seem to get 3d pictures I still don't know what he'll really look like once he's here. When I'm sleeping at night I'll wake up with the…

My last pregnancy I just got one down at 18 weeks to find out baby's gender..... But I ended up with complications at the end so they're more cautious this time. I'm at a different hospital now and they typically do one at 6weeks for everyone, then at 18/20 for the gender... when I got my 18wk one done my placenta was low…

That's great news! =) ... Are you excited for the ultrasound ... 5th or 6th ultrasound on Thursday. I love getting all the 3d pictures. Might have to buy a new scrapbook before Logan gets here cause I wont have any room left =P

Yay! Congrats! =) Being a mom is the hardest job, yet the most rewarding! AFM: I only have 7 days before my little man is here! Can't believe Tuesday is the big day & that I'll have Logan in my arms! I was worried about getting everything done, but it looks like it's all going to get done in time. The downstairs is almost…

My dr said with all my symptoms it's not looking good. Esp since with my last pregnancy I had pre-e and had to have an emergancy c-section at 32 weeks.... Well our scheduled c-section just got moved up to 37 weeks. August 7th is the big day now. Hopefully I maintain how I've been feeling so I make it to that date!

I'm 35wks and didn't get this far in my last pregnancy... So I was wondering... Lately I've been getting a headache every day, and my belly's starting to hurt, like cramps, last night before bed I was super dizzy, all night my legs and arms were really cramping up, and when I woke up I was still really dizzy..... Is anyone…

Faug Horn- That's so exciting! Have you picked out a name yet for your boy? I have a 2yr old, and trust me they are a joy! =) I'm having another boy this pregnancy and because having my 2yr old is so much fun, I'm really excited about having another one... 3rd trimester seems to be a lot like the first, tired all the time,…

I was thinking mucus plug too. I've read online that some people lose it a week or so before even having their baby and just have to carry on as normal. But that's what I read online, so who knows how dependable that information is. Lately I feel like I've been losing mine little by little, I'll go to the bathroom and wipe…

thedestar- thank you for starting a part 3 to this group!

Yep! If I go into labor I have a 30-40% chance of something going wrong, because of all the problems I had with my last pregnancy. So we all thought it'd be safer to just schedule a c-section 1 week before the due date. Guess we can't be much more prepared than this lol They might call the day of to let me know if there's…

August 21st a little after 5:00pm I will have baby Logan in my arms! So glad the scheduler finally called... That means a little less than 5 weeks! YAY!

On the bright side, in the hospital they let you choose how much you do and do not with the baby. If you want them to do all the diaper changes and feedings while you're there, they will. Unless you're breastfeeding, I'm pretty sure you don't want them to do all the feedings for you hehe jk.... My hubby works 3rd shifts.…

Tried the chocolate powder with fresh raspberries and almond milk... very yummy! Also tried that chocolate powder with pb idea and it was soooooo good. Might be my favorite. Tried the pina colada one and wasn't a fan at all. Nothing like I was expecting =/

I was put on bedrest at 29weeks because my bp was up, and then was taking off of it for a week, bp went back up so at 31 weeks i as put on bedrest in the hospital until i had to deliver emergency c-section at 32 1/2 weeks.... I'm 33 1/2 weeks now so looks like I'm doing better this pregnancy than the last one =D Also, when…
