  • You eat a lot of carbs, even though you don't eat that many in one meal. If I was working out every day and chasing 7 kids I wouldn't go crazy cutting out carbs but start by trying not to have non veggie carbs after 3pm without increasing what your norm is for breakfast/lunch/snack. Get your water in and monitor this for 3…

  • I completely agree with adding good, nutritionally dense, healthy fat foods. Also, if you used the computer to calculate your BMR then leave room for error. Mine calculates out to 1640 calories a day but even when exercising and eating healthy, I start gaining weight around 1500 calories a day. If I stay between 1300 and…

  • I am not the same weight as when I was 16 and was obsessing about getting there until recently. I am 8 lbs heavier but wear a size smaller pants! I am just going to chalk those 8 lbs up to boobs and 26 additional yrs of knowledge. :)

  • Feed the ice cream to the screaming child and see if you can get the crabby hubby to go to bed nicely. LOL! If it was me, I would make a cup of hot tea with an extra stevia and go into the bathroom. Sometimes I find pretending that I am "busy" in there gives me a moment or two to regroup and turning the fan on keeps…
