I'm a vegetarian & often feel like I'm the only one too :)

I've found running difficult because I am extremely,..um...busty. I've never found a sports bra that fits good enough to let me run (in public at least). Any thoughts on that?

Your baby is only three months - give it sometime :) Are you breast feeding? Everyone told me that would help me lose some weight (I don't think it did - but who knows). The pounds melted away pretty good after my first but I gained a little more with my second & I have hardly lost any (she is 18 months now!). I've been…

I was confused about that too. I have found some really good answers under the "please read first newbie" posts under the general diet questions.

Right now, I'm starving. I'm afraid when I get home I'm going to totally pig out while making dinner - I need some control!

Here is mine - I'm a vegetarian and EVERYONE feels the need to share with me that they are meat eaters and don't struggle with their weight (i.e. my sisters, parents, in-laws) My thought that I wish I could say out loud: I might be overweight but I guarantee by cholesterol is better than yours and at least I don't have any…

I'm 5'1. My first goal is to get to 130, to get me in the "healthy" range but I think I'd look my very best at about 115 (I was 100 when I graduated from high school & I looked great but after two kiddos, I think 115 would be just perfect).

Thanks for posting this! I've always wondered the same thing! My husband & I basically have the same diet. He is 5'9 & 130 pounds, I am 5'1 and 157 pounds - metabolism must play a part in this! I know I need to exercise more & drink more water! If you find another trick please share with us shorties!!! :)

Hey! I'm a lacto-ovo veg here slowing making the transition to veganism! If nothing else, I am trying to watch my calories and increase my activity level to lose the weight I gained with my last baby (who is a year & a half already!) - I have almost 30 pounds to lose to get my BMI back in that "healthy" category!

Wow - not just the weight but you look 20 years longer! Congrats! You are an inspiration!

I definitely need a cheerleader :happy:

Thanks for posting this, sometimes the best ideas are the simplest! The beer is going into crisper right now!

I am transitioning to veganism too! I've been lacto-ovo since around 1999 or so. So far it's been easy (but I haven't been tempted with a cheese pizza yet). Good luck! I think we can do it!

I tried it. I was lucky to not have the bad side effects (I eat a fairly low fat diet anyway). I did not lose any weight from it though. It didn't work for me and was just a waste of money.

I have a 19-month old and work full time too! It's hard to find time to think about yourself! You can do it though - and so can I! :heart:

Good tip on the B12. I've been a vegetarian for about 12 years and I'm slowing transitioning to veganism. I've read everywhere that vegetarians need to supplement with B12, but I guess I've been too lazy to really look into it! I'm going to buy myself some next time I go to the store - maybe that's the energy boost I've…

Hey! I've been vegetarian for about 12 years and I am finally attempting the transition to veganism. I have found the best places to find new, creative vegetarian recipes are to search for ethic food. Start with googling easy things like "vegetarian Mexican recipes" (i.e. bean burritos) and "vegetarian italian recipes"…
