Hello...I also am a mother of 3...all by c-section too. I lost 90 pounds. I would work out alot and never lost anything. When I started tracking my food on here I realized I was eating way too many calories. Just make sure you are eating the right amount. Too many or even too few could result in the scale sticking. Good…

Back in the day when I use to low carb..I loved lowcarber.org

bump

4 pounds just depending on sodium, beer drinking, or how big my meal the night before!

My new favorite snack is mango and cottage cheese. I just defrost the frozen mango and sweeten it up with some sugar or splenda then put it on top the cottage cheese. I have been eating this alot!!! so yommy!

I'm pretty sure the weight is before you cook it.

Here is my two cents on it! 1. I don't think you NEED to lift weights but it burns alot of calories and that's good! Also muscle is good, the more muscle you have the more calories you burn even when you're not working out!!! But any kind of exercise is good! 2. Definatley have a snack at night....I like to slice a banana…

I made chocolate covered strawberries and sugar cookies with frosting and sprinkles....I ate too many. Calories don't count on valentines day!!!!!! (at least for me today)

They have this stuff on amazon.com called PB2 Powdered Peanut Butter and Powdered Cocoa Peanut Butter - 85% Less Fat and Calories...I have never tried it but the reviews are really good...You could get some low sugar or no sugar jelly and that should make the pb & j much less in cal and fat.

When I started I topped in at 220 pounds!!! In the beginning I would eat about 1600 calories a day and only work out for 30 min. The weight came off pretty fast. But the reason I ate so many calories in the start is so I would have somewhere to fall back on when weight loss slowed down...the more closer I got to my goal…

Are you eating too much sodium??? I was stuck at the same weight for a couple weeks and dropped down the sodium to under 2000mg and the scale started moving down again. Just a thought. Looks though by your post your doing it right. Maybe just wait it out, it would be impossible for you to actually be gaing real weight but…

I went from 220 to 124 and it took about 3 years...I did it slow and I do have some skin issues. Especially on my stomach and legs. I have read all kinds of different replies to this kind of question..some say sagging skin recovers somewhat after a couple years and others say it doesn't. I have been maintaining for about 5…

When I have days like this the scale jumps way up too...but just get back on track...most of it is just water weight and will go away in a few days. Don't beat yourself up..just move foward :)

I just added about 1/2 the spaghetti sauce jar of water.

I am making a crockpot lasagna tonight. I haven't made it before so fingers crossed it turns out. I got the recipe on facebook from crockpot girls. I just tweeked the recipe a bit to be more low cal/low fat.I could have made it more low in sodium by using low fat ricotta but I wanted to try it with the cottage cheese.I am…

I've been in the mood for stuffed peppers....thanks!

Thank you everybody for all the respsonses. It makes more sense now....thank you again :)

Thank you all so much for the responses. I can't wait to try some of these!!!!
