  • At 5'7 and 218, 1200 calories is way too low. Especially if you exercise...honestly it is a recipe for disaster. I am trying to lose baby weight too, and stay between 1600-1700 calories. At 1200 calories I was shaky and weak, and my workouts suffered horribly. After a few months, my hair also started to thin out. I think…
  • I took it in the past and was successful. I had a hard time sleeping for about three days, but it is short term. You really have to try it to see how it will effect you. I didn't have any of those horrible side effects. I've always had decent blood pressure (120/80) but when I took it mine actually dropped to around…
  • If he doesn't want to go, then go without him. You will be running the entire time, its not like you will see him anyhow. Why do you need his approval and support for something that is a passion of yours. I think you are being a bit too sensitive. And it sounds like he just doesn't want to go, so he was picking an…
  • The worst thing you can do is stand and watch him while he works out!!!! My boyfriend would be annoyed beyond belief in two seconds haha. Lift with him!!! Let him help you and show you the way.

She was not nice about it either. The second was after I lost a good amount of weight but still had a butt and thighs (which now I think is a good thing). A…
  • Starting a running program hurts, I won't lie. I went from 270 pounds to 190 because of running, but my body was torn up at the beginning. I kept going though, slow as molasses and literally starting with intervals of 1 minute of jogging with a few minutes of walking. Then, a year ago I was jogging six miles at a time, and…
  • I would appreciate that my trainer is trying to keep "in the loop" and looking for what is best. Im not a "fitness professional" but I have been a coach for years. I don't claim to know everything, but it seems like every meeting and training program I go to, the idea of how to lose weight seems to change.
  • I tried nursing, but had too low of milk supply. After meeting with my doctor and lactation consultants, they decided that I just didn't make much milk and I would need to supplement as well as breast feed. (They had me measure a day of pumping, and combined I only produced 1/2 of an ounce). Anyhow, the supplement for…
