I'm a SAHM of 4 girls 4,5,6 and 9. I set mine to lightly active as well. Even though I workout regularly. My 4 year old was recently diagnosed with Epilepsy so I am constantly running around for her. Everything needs to be a specific way or she freaks (meds cause this). Us parents are really very active :wink:

We all struggle and have those times where we lose focus or feel defeated. Don't let it get the best of you. You can do it. Feel free to add me if you want :smile:

For me it was our family trip to Florida/Disney. I was at my absolute heaviest at 228 pounds. I didn't want to wear a bathing suit, be in any pictures etc. I was ashamed. We spent all this money on a fun/family vacation and I was miserable. Now I'm at 144. I still want to lose a little more and tone up. But I'm getting…

Anyone can feel free to add me. My name is Ashley. I'm a wife and stay at home mom of 4 girls. I don't have a specific weight loss goal but to get fit and tone up. :happy:

If anyone wants to follow me mine is Ashley121205 . Mostly fitness or motivation quotes, progress photos and beachbody posts too. And occasionally some of my kids :laugh:

Feel free to add me :smile: Anyone can. I'm 29 a Mom to 4. So that makes me a little bit of a queen of sarcasm :wink:

I don't know. I haven't investigated Herbalife too much but I don't think you should supplement too many meals with shakes. I am a Beachbody Coach and use my Shakeology sometimes as a meal or after workout supplement. But if you don't eat real food you're going to have to buy that stuff for life. With that being said what…

I love ChaLEAN Extreme.

Hi there- My name is Ashley and I'm a stay at home/work from home Mom of 4 girls. Ages 4,5,6 and 9. Any other Moms feel free to add me :flowerforyou:

When I first became a Beachbody Coach (6 weeks ago) I started ChaLEAN Extreme. I absolutely LOVE it !! 3 days strength training and 2 days of cardio. It's amazing. Definitely getting toned :happy:

I hear you. 2 years ago I lost 80 pounds and then gained 30 back. Lost those 30 and still continuing on my fitness journey :drinker: Feel free to add me :flowerforyou:

Feel free to add me. My name is Ashley. I'm a 29 year old stay at home Mom of 4 girls :happy:

Feel free to add me :happy: I'm a stay at home Mom of 4 girls. Committed to my workouts but no crazy fad diets :wink:

I'm currently doing ChaLEAN Extreme. It's 2 days of cardio and 3 days of strength training. I looove it. So I think 3 & 3 would work as well :happy:

Thank you :happy:

T-shirt and undies

Awesome :drinker:

Melanoma ??

I don't know the feeling of being insulted by name calling. But I do know the looks from being overweight. I had 4 daughters in 5 years to the day and after my 4th daughter I was a constant 223 pounds. I've put in a lot of hard work and after 1 year I'm now 143 pounds. Feel free to add me if you want to. I know the…

You look amazing !!!!!!!! You're so committed :smile: Keep up the great work

Yes I can definitely see a difference !!! In your face, waist and legs :drinker: Great job ! I'm so happy for you :bigsmile:

I have asked my husband. He got really upset but I forced him to answer. He did agree he was more attracted to me thinner but he was still attracted to me when I was heavier. I don't blame him a bit. I wouldn't have found me that attractive at the weight I was :embarassed: He showed me when I was heavier how attracted he…

It sounds like you are on the right track :drinker: ! Just try to eat leaner meats. I love chicken and ground turkey ( for turkey burgers or I use it to make tacos) Replace some snacks with fruit or veggies. I'm not great at eating a lot of fruits and veggies though. So definitely smaller portions are the key. I've just…

No !! There's a lot of people who are willing to put in a lot hard work and time into losing weight. So if she was going to have her surgery paid for then I would like a free tummy tuck :laugh:

I can't think of it as a diet. I hate the word diet. I'm thinking of it as changes I can live with forever. I don't deprive myself if I really want something.

Sounds yummy !!

Bump

No problem :flowerforyou: I hope you see a loss :happy: I've lost 58 pounds on MFP and 74 total. I've had to do some tweaking to my calories before so I know the struggle that comes along with that.

Sometimes sodium can make people retain water :( Well I guess the BMR is pretty close. MFP said that I should eat 1200 calories but my BMR is 1430. So I usually eat 1350 and eat back most of my exercise calories. So if you eat 1200 and exercise just try to hit the number it says you should eat. I would give it a week or so…

I went and looked at your food diary and I know it sounds silly but have you tried eating more ??? Especially if you exercise. Your body needs fuel. Some people only lose weight if they eat at their BMR. Also maybe try tracking sodium. And I didn't see if you were drinking 8 or more cups of water a day. Water really helps.
