Try not to be too legalistic about it, you're eating fruit, not M&M's ;) I go over my sugar a little each day, it's not harmed me yet. Katie

Thanks everyone :) We're about 1 hour away from bedtime for the big kids and about 2-3 hours away from bedtime for the baby (her first "bedtime" of the night that is). I think I can make it until the big ones are in bed, then hopefully I'll have my protein shake and be done stressing for the night! My husband will be home…

Awesome! Great job! Katie

This still sounds too restrictive to be maintained long term, let alone enjoyed! Yes you want to lose weight, but you also want to learn a new way of eating you can follow your whole life long. I personally could not maintain that diet for very long without feeling very deprived! Why no seasonings? No cayenne? No cumin? No…

Those sound delicious!! Katie

My husband means well, but he doesn't really know what it's like to be "Mom" Plus, he plays baseball many times a week, and is often gone 7 h ours at a time, so he gets 7 hours of time for himself, I feel guilty when I sleep in 30 extra minutes! I spent Canada day fending off cravings! Our favorite Indian place had a…

Thanks everyone :) Lucky for me, I planned my whole day out in advance and I planned in a creamsicle! Answer to my craving prayers!!! I also get a yummy protein shake later in the evening, chocolate peanut butter flavor! Yum! Feels like a total cheat but isn't! I just can't wait until bedtime! And I just can't wait until…

Thank you! Katie

Well I am definitely not getting much sleep these days! Baby is my little dictator! So yes, some days I feel like I am teetering on the edge of sanity, this explains it so well! I have not deviated from my meal plans today, so far so good! Katie

Good idea! Katie

Honestly, my advice is to ditch your "nutritionist" and follow the guidelines MFP makes for you, as well as the food pyramid :) You'll be happier and more likely to actually lose weight! Good luck with your weight loss, and lean on MFP for support whenever you need it :) Katie

Best to still be mindful of your sodium and fats and sugars, if you still eat a ton of them, even within your calorie limit, you may not have the success you're after. Good luck! Katie

I heard your taste buds regenerate in cycles, I can't recall how many days it takes, but lets just say its something like every 30 days. So, if you cut back gradually over the next month, your new taste buds will be used to less salt and you'll start picking out new flavors in your food to enjoy! Katie

They look great! Katie

Jello refridgerated pudding cups are very chocolately and smooth and cool, and only 60 calories :) Katie

Feel free to add me, I just had my fourth baby 12 weeks ago :) Katie

Welcome Beth! And good luck on your weight loss journey! Katie

I understand feeling let down, but don't let the discouragement you feel derail your efforts! Make sure you're drinking a ton of water, account for every morsel you put in your mouth and keep a close eye on how much sodium you're eating, all of this will help! The best advice I can give you is to bring your frustrations…

I'm 5'11" and I'd say a size 10 is as small as I could get. Back in the day when I was a size 10 I was really quite thin, and because I was tall people thought I was smaller then I was. I'm hippy too, a 10 would be heaven to see once more! Katie

Happy Canada Day! Enjoy all the healthy BBQ options out there!
