Ok, I don't work I am a stay at home mom of two babies. I put myself as Sedentary also because I figure that was best. So should I log my house work then? Also, should a stay at home mom be considered sedentary? I rest often, but I'm also busy from 6 am to 10 pm doing house work and chasing after my two babies.

Just keep trucking along. She is your daughter and believe it or not somewhere in her mind she looks up to you no matter what, its just instinct, human nature. She may have her own insecurities/reasons for feeling the way she does. If you just stay strong and keep doing what you're doing you will lose the weight and she…

what is HIIT?

SO true. Just make yourself do it, just like making yourself exercise or eat right. Just force yourself to do it, and after a while its easy. Plus it honestly does make you feel better. After 30 days of doing it, I don't feel as good without my water.

I'm not big on the 32 oz bottles... I love the 16 oz bottles of spring water. SO good. Plus, they aren't too big, so you can force yourself to drink one fairly quickly and get it "outta the way" so to speak. Then if you can do that just 4 more times or so, you've got your daily intake goal complete!!

They suggest you drink 8 "cups" of water a day. A cup is only 8 oz. There are usually 16 oz in the avg. bottle of water. So if you drink a bottle of water thats already 2 cups... I find it quite easy if you drink a bottle of water with each meal you've got 6 of your daily 8, right there! If you really hate drinking it, try…

those sound great. where can you buy them? are the expensive?

It seems good to me, but i don't know much about it, I'm still new to all this. But, I kind of do the same thing. One day I'll be under my goal, next day I'll be over, the next day I'll be on target. It all depends on when I exercise too, but usually even if I don't exercise I never eat the same amounts each day. I have…

have you had a baby recently? with both my kids my hair started falling out and thinning around the time they were 3 months old. i took a prenatal vitamin too, still do, but that didn't matter, it still got really thin.

ok cool, so I said it serves 4 people because the rest of my family could easily finish it off. But, they don't eat normal portion sizes, so I think it probably serves 6.

Are you eating your exercise calories back? If you're only getting roughly 1200 daily and then you exercise you need to eat more of the burned calories back to prevent starvation mode from happening. I don't know much about PCOS from a weight point of view but I know a lot about it from a fertility point of view. Many of…

Thank you SO MUCH!!

it says the picture has been deleted from that photobucket account....?

you look amazing!! keep going!!!!

wow. you weren't even heavy at all to begin with! but congrats on your weight loss you look so good!!

great job!! I've lost 12 pounds in a month and a half. I'm halfway to my mini goal. I am SO happy. Isn't it great? I think once you lose some you get really motivated. Keep it up.

that is so great. good job. I'm glad you kept it real about the surgery. I didn't know all the details about it. I thought about getting it but decided I can do it the old fashioned way since I'm young healthy and able to exercise often. Theres no reason why I can't do it, it just won't happen as quickly as it would have…

Ok I have 3 things to say! 1, You looked good before, very pretty! 2, You look amazing now, great job! 3, You inspire me, by how you spent a whole year to lose 45 pounds, most people would give up for lack of fast results. You stuck with it and it paid off.

whats fish oil and why is it good for you?

You look like a whole different person. Great job!!!!

Thank you everyone!!!

You are awesome.

And of course they didnt post right. lets try that again!! BEFORE: AFTER: There that should work...

Just keep going. Don't worry about what you might look like thin, because at least you'll be healthy. And trust me you will feel better about yourself for being so thin and healthy, even if you have a few flaws from all the weight loss. That is to be expected and can be corrected with serious tightening exercises and…

That is a great idea I'm going to try it

Try these kinds of foods, high in protein: Kashi Go Lean cereal Tuna fish, I LOVE it, it has only 50 calories and 10g of protein. I never feel hungry after eating tuna. Dannon Greek Yogurt. Only 120 calories and a ton of protein

drink lots of water that is the only thing that helps me. also try eating foods with a ton of protein, even your snacks, make sure they have at least 5g of protein. If you struggle with portion sizes try eating more snacks or smaller meals throughout the day. I force myself to eat smaller portions and if the meal isn't…

HAHAHA I eat so much of it already I've always like it, now I know why I feel so full after I eat it. I feel like it isn't good to eat that much tuna though, like, mercury in the fish or something weird like that. Is it bad to eat a lot of tuna every single day?

Go to bed, if you're tired enough. That is what I do. Can't snack if you're asleep LOL. I also drink a big glass of water and if I have to eat something I make it a small under 100 calorie snack. Also, my latest routine has been working out later at night, a little bit before bed time. It gets me nice and exhausted so I…
