  • I never go to the gym... I had a membership for almost a year and literally NEVER went. lol I now work out at home... no excuses! This saves me from having to get dressed, drive all the way to the gym, strap the kids in and out of their car seats & drop the kids off in childcare (if it's during the day), work out, get in…

  • You can get $1 pregnancy tests at Dollar Tree - sometimes they have them up at the registers (I guess bc people steal them?) I'd take one just to rule that out! You've gotten some good advice already. :)

  • Feel free to add me! :) If our house sale goes through, we'll be going through a move and it'll all be really stressful - I'm hoping my MFP pals can help keep me on track through all of it so I can keep my eyes on the HEALTH prize!

    in 105 pounds gone and officially overweight! (pics) Comment by JennsRAQ June 2011
  • I got pregnant with my 3rd child RIGHT after I had gotten down below my goal weight (I was 127 lbs! WHAT?!). Unfortunately, the second I found out I was pregnant, I stopped being "good" and really gave up all of my good habits. I ended gaining my normal average (46 lbs - I'd gained 50 with my daughter and 42 with my son)…
    in Pregnant... now what to eat?!? Comment by JennsRAQ June 2011
  • I'm having a Smart Ones lasagna and a 100 cal pack of Hostess cakes. lol I might eat half a cantaloupe and some strawberries as my afternoon snack as I bought them yesterday because I've been craving some yummy fresh fruit. :) Katschi, yours looks delish!

  • Team MORE here! When I am about to watch "my shows" in the evenings with the hubster, I usually put my walking shoes on and walk in place (a la Leslie Sansone moves) while we watch them and find a snack. Sometimes it's really healthy stuff like fruit or salad... sometimes it's a cupcake... either way, I'm being active when…

  • I HAVE been eating out a LOT more the last few days. Family was in town and I was the delivery girl for them :-/ I will get back to eating what I have in my house instead of eating out quite so much this week. I know it will help. I eat more salad when I eat out but end up eating less fresh fruit and homemade meals when…

  • Could you go for a run/walk during part of your lunch to squeeze in some exercise? Or go up and down some stairs? I'm in the - Chipotle can be reasonable! - camp. I'd focus more on eating a salad with yummies on top (half portions of meat, beans, etc - double portions of veggies... no tortilla or rice) and maybe bringing…

  • I'd love to join in with you girls. I'm 5'3", started at 158, I'm a little under 154 now.... I am hoping to get down to 130 again. I am repeating almost exactly the scenario I went through a couple of years ago. My second child was 18 months, I buckled down and calorie counted and started working out and got down to 127 in…

  • We buy fruits and veggies through the www.bountifulbaskets.org co-op! In our area, it is every other week and it's $15 for a small laundry hamper full of fruits and veggies or $25 for all organic. It has been a HUGE money saver for us!

    in Leslie Sansone Walk At Home Challenge anyone? Starting June Comment by JennsRAQ June 2011
  • I tried calorie counting to lose weight when my son was about 10 months old and he actually had an unusually sharp decline in weight gain/growth that correlated with it. I also noticed my milk supply dropping rapidly. My son never really ate lots of solids at this point and I know it had a huge impact on it. I decided to…

  • Have you ever tried the "thin" bagels? The ones I like are the Thomas Everything Bagels, the "thin" version and it only has 110 calories. 2 TBSP of fat free Philadelphia strawberry cream cheese only has 40 cals. I like to pair that with a lite sausage link (40c) or an egg (or both) for a nice low cal, but satisfying,…

  • I'm just happy that I didn't overdo it too much! I could have been REALLY bad there. ;) I also didn't eat the entirety of the dish, but I am not sure what to count off for on the calculations since I ate all the fish but not all of the rice, so I just counted the whole thing... so I was probably only off by 200 cals and…

  • I lost 32 lbs in just about 90 days right before I found out I was pregnant with my 3rd child. ;) (of COURSE!) I ate between 1200-1500 calories per day and I worked out between 45 minutes- 1.5 hours a day most days.
