  • I'll tell on myself first; I also don't like my food to touch, I won't get a new plate, but I will eat around the offending items. The exception is that I don't mind if maple syrup gets on my sausage or bacon- that's delicious. But no, syrup can not touch the eggs. I also tend to eat one thing at a time and I save the…
  • ARe you still taking members? I'd like to join- getting out of 200s is my first major goal, and I hope to make it by Memorial day!
  • This is really helpful! Thank you! I am still nursing my little one, but not exclusively anymore- so it's really difficult to figure how many calories I should add for that. I am on board with eating more to lose more, but I am kind of guessing at this point. I'd love to see
  • Still hanging in there! I will be bumping into April a little bit too- but I should finish on Tues (April 3) The scale finally moved a little bit for me, so that makes me very happy! I definitely feel stronger, especially in my arms/shoulders. I am kind of meh about Level 3- it's ok, but I feel like I do a lot of the…
  • I missed 2 days in level 1, and now I've missed 1 day of level 2, I just keep going. I just chalk it up as a rest day and then just stick to once a day. I know that if I tried to make up for it, I would get overwhelmed and maybe even more behind and then want to quit and I am not quitting! I may tack on some days at the…
  • Same thing is happening to me! I am halfway through Level 2 and I haven't lost anything since I started. I think what a previous poster stated above is right on. At least I hope so! It would make sense for me anyway as I had only been doing cardio before starting 30DS. I took measurements at the beginning - but I can't…
  • Same here... I went up 1.6lbs after starting, but this morning it finally went back down (after day 7). So I guess my body just needed a week to adjust.
  • In the food database there are multiple entries you can use to count your calories - search under "nursing" or "breastfeeding" - every calorie level is in there from 100 to 600 or so. If you are exclusively nursing, yes 500 is a good place to start. Give it at least a week and see how it goes- it's really individual. Make…
  • Why do you want to go against what MFP states?? It sounds like you are on the right track. 9lbs in 6 weeks is about 1.5 lbs a week- and that is losing at a good healthy rate. I am about the same size and I have lost that same amount in about the same time. That doesn't really matter though, What matters is that it's…
  • I was supposed to start W3 today, but I've caught a nasty cold so I am resting instead. Hoping to catch up tomorrow. Do you run when you are sick?
  • Hi! I just finished W2D3 and I'll start Wk 3 on Monday. I also run mostly on the treadmill for now. I successfully finished C25K once before, but that was 4 years and 2 babies ago. :) Here's to getting all the way through this round!
  • You may be going too fast! Try slowing down or keeping a steadier pace to make it the full 3 min. Don't worry about how fast you are going. The first time I did C25K I was at a very slow jog (< 5.0 on the treadmill) I was passed by speed walkers. My pace gradually increased on it's own. Once you have built up the distance,…
