  • How are you feeling? Are you feeling better by exercising and losing weight? Are you sleeping better? Is your mood better? Are you enjoying the new, healthier foods? At this point it is tough and frustrating, and we all go through it (I always want to quit when I am PMSing and it feels like I have gained weight and all I…
  • I once saw on some TV show that 6 rolls of sushi is like 3 pieces of white bread. Don't know if it is true, but totally stuck with me. How about sushimi and salad? Or one order of rolls and salad?
  • Another thing to watch when breastfeeding is your fat intake. YOU MUST EAT ENOUGH!!!! Your baby needs fat for brain development, and if you cut out too much, you could basically be feeding you baby skim milk (fat in breast milk can range from 2 - 9 % with average being around 6%). Until you start supplementing your baby…
  • thank you! This was really my first week of following and tracking, and I made the assumption that since it was in my settings, I didn't have to add it. Live and learn! Thanks for the information.
  • As a newbie I am still confused. I checked my settings, and I have my weekly exercise targets in there.

  • Congrats on you for having such a supportive SO! It is wonderful, and so much better than him trying to sabotage you. However, in you discussions, explain that it is about health.

  • Weigh your clothes and your shoes at home. 7 lbs in clothing, shoes, water, all possible... Then weigh yourself tomorrow - scales can be crazy inconsistent.
  • My husband had "sludge" in his gallbladder, but no stones. High fibre would actually set off an attach as well - too much broccoli once and too much raisin bran... His most severe attack actually happened after he had been busy at work and skipped lunch, came home late and ate 2 bowls of raisin bran. It was so severe that…
  • I always find if there is something I want sitting in the fridge that I am trying to avoid, I end up eating two or three other things that I don't really want BEFORE I will cave and eat that thing I want. Read the box triscuits I just bought - THREE INGREDIENTS! Super amazed and impressed. My recommendation is to eat what…
  • I was in better shape when my kids were the same age as yours. I would tuck my daughter into the front pack, but the boys into the double stroller and walk. I walked for at least 2 hours most days, just running my errands. The resistance of pushing the two boys (close to 100 lbs with the stroller at that time), plus…
