I've recently been diagnosed with Hashimotos and hypothyroidism after gaining 30lbs in 3 months with no change to diet and exercise . Thyroid has a major part to do with metabolism! Yes weight loss is still calories in versus calories out but which hypothyroidism and levels that are not optimal while others may burn 1900…

Maybe I should state that I am certified in nutrition. While I don't have degrees in anatomy I know many personal trainers that do not. Isn't that what my education while getting my personal training would provide me with. I have to say that I'm very disappointed in the negativity of some of you. Just because you are…

I wasn't really asking to be criticized for my interest. Being up on new trends I think is important as I feel you need to know them to answer any question your client may have on them. If i have a client ask me if eating for their body type or eating only in certain hours of the day would work I would want to be familiar…

I've been a college athlete and have lost over 130lbs myself. While I don't have any degrees in fitness education I have self taught myself enough to lose weight myself, ideally I would like to target obese women or new moms as I have been both. For me it's the whole been there done that. So it sounds like getting into a…

Hey! I have been taking folate and do see a difference, I was not advised to take aspirin though, what is the purpose of it in this case?
-
The testing was done at the hospital and read by the lab there. I also do have diabetes so I know it had caused some issues
-
I was given foods to eat that are high in folate but it's pretty generic. I guess maybe I'm more looking for go to meals since the list looks boring. Lol.

I am 6'2" and was 220 pre pregnancy. I gained a lot while pregnant even when I watched what I ate and exercised up until delivery. I am now 5 weeks post partum and have only gotten down to 262. My goal was to get to 220 by the first day of summer but I don't see that happening now. My weight the past 2 weeks has completely…

I havent had my baby yet ( due in 6 days) but i have been reading alot about SIDS ( as i am also very paranoid). From what I have read letting the baby sleep on her side is fine. I would worry about covering her with a blanket though. Do you happen to have one of those sleepsacks? You could put her in that to help keep her…
-
I am really really hoping to see that half the weight comes off in the first couple of weeks!!!!
-
I agree. I honestly dont want any of those pictures floating around on FB with me looking like a drugged out homeless person ( lets be honest no women is going to look her best after being in labor for who knows how long!) I also want to be the one to post the baby picture, I will be seriously pissed if someone else does…

6'2" size 11 shoe. I was 215lbs before becoming pregnant and have gained about 67lbs with one week left. I am hoping to get back to my pre pregnancy weight soon though. I was 195 but was unable to maintain that for very long. My body seemed to be happy at 215
-
One week until i am induced. Holy Cow I cant believe that i only have one week or less until i get to meet my baby!!!!
-
Well i am in my last week and i will probably not be weighing myself anymore. Totaly of 67lbs at 39 weeks. Ugh... I sure hope i get released to exercise soon after having the baby.

Eating the lunch meat cold at anytime is bad. I agree with everyone else. Just microwave the lunchmeat at work then put it on your sandwich. I have just been eating egg salad and pb&j sandwiches because i dont want to mess with making my sandwich at lunch.
-
So excited for you! Good luck thursday and make sure to let us all know how it goes!
-
Who from this group is still pregnant!!!!! I AM. Induction on 12/27 unless Baby Colton decides to come sooner!
-
^^^^ This. Biggest waste of money for me. I think i wore it like 2 times and said screw it. I just did the rubber band trick for a while
-
yes it is. I am 6'2" so i think that helps me carry the weight bettter. Still it sucks to have to lose that much. lol
-
Well even though i think alot of the 6lbs i gained in this past week is mostly water I am still reporting it as a gain. So 38 weeks and up 63 STINKING pounds. Ugh.
-
YESSSSS! I have been waiting anxiously for this post!!!! Congrats!

You are sooooo correct that people push the Medela pump way to much. Looking at the price there was absolutely NO WAY i was going to be buying one. After talking to my midwife and nurses the Ameda seems to be the best choice and the price is not bad at all. I recently found out that I will not have a job when i am done…
-
I have never heard of that brand and to be honest it doesnt seem like there are enough reviews to sway me personally to buy it. I would wait to see if more ppl review it. I have looked into the Ameda Purely Yours. http://www.amazon.com/Ameda-Purely-Yours-Breast-Pump/dp/B004E9SW7G/ref=pd_cp_ba_2 this was actually the pump…

I have been wearing my older victorias secret underwear. I have about 6 pairs that were old and in danger of being pitched. i have just been wearing them and wil get some new ones once the pregnancy is over. These were all low cut so i havent had any issue with my belly making them roll. honestly i think those who have…

What type of inhaler do they have your using? if using it before runs is not working, i would take the inhler with you to use it when needed
-
I have exercise induced asthma and have had it for years. I have been able to control it very well while exercising intensely. I have noticed that most flare ups will be when i am running outside when its hot out. In this case i will use my proventil inhaler BEFORE starting my run. For working out in the house or gym i…

You will probaly have a ten minute long pee and lose it all later today. lol. Dont worry about the weight. You will see your beautiful baby boy tomorrow!
-
Exactly!!!! Beast mode is on as soon as those 4 weeks are up!!!
-
^^^^ This. Or they say " you know you dont have to be superwoman" . I would like to try natural also but want the option for an epidural if i need one. Most people think i am trying to be some kind of martyr because I would prefer going natural. I will be in a hospital so its not like im attempting this at home. I have…
-
well i was planning on needing to pump alot but i have recently been told that I will not have a job after the end of the year ( basically when i would go on maternity leave) so i guess now i will be a stay at home mom till i am able to find a job. I will most likely just buy a manual pump for now since i wil be home all…
