Yep, me too, except with my skirt tucked into the back of my underwear....thankfully a woman grabbed me as I walked by and told me before I walked past the row of cubicles filled with my male coworkers-eek! Near epic fail. This happened several years ago, when it was actually kind of a nice hiney :P

THANK YOU for reviving this thread! As soon as I get a chance I'll post some pics too :)

Holy crap woman! Look at you! Fabulous job! You look amazing :)

My child has been going through this too. As much I as loved snuggling her, she was really messing up my sleep. So I had to be firm and put her in her own bed. She didn't like it and cried it out for a few days but then she learned that this is just how it is now. I put a child safety handle on the inside of her door to…

Looks great!

The first one-the Julia Stiles one.

I have wondered about this too-don't want to stress out my joints, knees, and feet with my weight at 216. Was thinking of waiting until I get to around 170 lbs or so before I attempt to become a runner.

At 20 years old, from my fiancee's aunt-winnie the pooh flannel pajamas...Um I'm 20 years old, not 2! Weird. The LEAST sexy pj's you could imagine.

I agree. "I'll eat this at my desk later. I need to get some water." Return to desk, deposit in garbage. Drama avoided :)

Awww! Sniff, so beautiful.

Yep. And will I be over my calories? Most likely :) Too ocd to not log a day, lol.

I do 6 small meals per day and it's been working out great for me. Keeps your blood sugar levels regulated and makes it so you don't get too hungry ever. I would say if you are seeing a weight gain or if your loss has stopped, it could be water retention from sodium. I agree with PP, total calories per day is what counts,…

You can do this! For me what has worked is: Eat your exercise calories Try to incorporate more fruits, veggies, and protein Start exercising, even 10 or 15 minutes is better than nothing DON'T beat yourself up if you mess up. Acknowledge it, learn from it, and move forward. No matter how many times you fall, get back up.…

Look at you! Yay!!

Me too-always looking for new foods to keep things from getting boring! Been on MFP since July. Feel free to add me for support :)

I am very sorry to hear about your mother. I can only imagine how stressed you are. If nothing else, try to get in some exercise. It will help you burn off your frustration and sadness over your mother's illness and your weight gain. You CAN do this. I have zumba and I love it. It's helped me lose a good bit of my weight…

Congrats on your new baby! I have a 3 year old and it's very hard to get on a good routine with a new baby, so don't be too hard on yourself :) You just need to find new ways to cook and make healthy food yummy. And you can still have treats, just in moderation-I try not to deprive myself of anything. That equals-binge :(…

Agreed

^^ I agree with this. I am terrified of guns but I have forced myself to learn to use them in case I would ever need to protect myself and my daughter at home when my husband travels.

Sent you a request :)

:heart: :heart: :heart: :heart: You are awesome!

Plus too, think about it-if your husband was going through what you are right now, not only would he not be going to the gym, he'd be laying on the floor crying in misery, haha. They have no clue what we ladies go through to bring that baby into the world! Big (((HUGS))) to you!

Ok here's my pep talk for you :wink: Stop it right now! Give yourself a break. Your body is working very hard right now to grow your baby. You shouldn't push yourself too hard if your body is telling you it needs rest. And feeling guilty is stressful so stop that too :flowerforyou: I completely understand wanting to be…

Wow thanks guys! You are awesome! I'm going to buy some this week and try a couple different things to see what I like.

My husband's friend's wife chain smoked while pregnant with her baby. I wanted to punch her in the face every time we went to hang out with them. Took every ounce of willpower I had not to say something. Not that she would've cared, but I found it a horrendous thing to do. Thankfully the baby was fine. And reinforcing for…

My hero! Hard to find words for how awesome you are. What an inspiration!

I wish I could "remove" people in real life who are annoyed by my weight loss, lol.

I didn't know what "tired" really felt like! I thought I did. I was WRONG! How my heart would melt every time I saw her learning and doing new things. That a fever could cause me to nearly faint with worry.

:laugh: Hilarious
