The 2450 is the readout on my Surge at the end of the night based on HR so no, not including breastfeeding. But I have always felt like I never burn more with nursing. (5 kids and never " just lose" after birth from nursing). I understand the math and for sure feel like my loss should be more than .5lb based on my deficit,…

Yes, I weigh everything

I usually burn 2450 calories a day (based on my fitness tracker. ) the trainer I spoke with said I was way undereating and not eating enough protein which is why I had he muscle loss. I was 184lbs may 1, 172 June 1, 170lbs July 1 (that month was a month of fasting for Ramadan so not a regular routine), and 165 Aug 1. That…

Going to check it out now!

A great alternative is cauliflower crust or if you still want dough we use pita bread. They are premade so the calorie count is no guesswork. And it is more of a "personal pan "size. We like thin crust so it works for us.

mother of 5 here. smallest is 4 months. would love some more friends

Hi ladies, I just had my fifth child. Just starting to make plans of how I will get the weight off. Would love to be a part of a group of mom's trying to lose their baby weight. I have 23lbs to lose to get to pre pregnancy weight, and 15 more after that to reach my ultimate goal. So almost 40lbs to lose. I love to Spin and…

you look so much younger! amazing job!

Im 31 and have about 25lbs to lose. I have done it before but just gave birth again and am holding on to baby weight. I'm 5'10 with a small frame, and trying to stay within my calories (1600) and be active by walking 3x a week and spinning 3x a week. My biggest issue is trying to control my boredom and emotional eating… I…

I am 5'10 -- Have been as high as 198 (in University) but was 187 when I got married. Lost a bunch before kids but a year after my third child I was 171 and not happy. Right now I am around 160 and am trying to get to my pre-pregnancy weight of 152. I would ideally like to be at 145.

great job! btw your short haircut in one photo is SUPER CUTE!

I am 5'10 and I started at 171 and am shooting to get to 150. I actually would like to be between 142-145 ( I have a small frame) but I know that my body likes 150-153.

It is so nice to see that there is a community here that can support one another! Thanks for sharing your stories ladies! Lets motivate each other and get it done!!!

so nice to hear from all of you ladies! lets support each other and get it done!!!

Hi Ladies, My third has just turned 1 and i am still 20lbs over my pre-preg weight. I NEVER LOSE WHEN NURSING! i have lots of friends who it melts the fat off for, but not me. I have noticed that when I stop nursing the weight starts to drop but that is also usually when i get serious about my eating and fitness. I have a…

I think this is really perfect advice and I wish everyone would have this kind of healthy perspective on their weight loss. Really great job, keep up the amazing work!

amazing results. You look beautiful!

that is amazing really... the difference is staggering. Really... It is so amazing how when we are heavier we can think we are "big boned" or make excuses for the weight... Girl you were tiny under all of that weight!! You look amazing and I am totally inspired!!! Especially from your post baby belly. What is the exercise…

Super stoked about all of these beautiful tall ladies working so hard!!! I am 5'10 and currently 149 and working for 140. Have been as high as 198 in the past. I have a small frame (6" wrist) so shooting for the lower end of the BMI. Initially I wanted to be 130-135 but after two month plateau at 153 I decided I should…

I don't think this is silly at all.... rock it my friend.

brilliant!

when i finally get to 145 I am getting my teeth whitened and when i hit ultimate goal I get the $30 for each pound I lost that was put away...

this is a nice idea

@ChristineCain --i usually try not to eat back my exercise calories cause I find that my burns aren't big enough and i would rather allow the deficit than eat one cookie or whatever the 180-200 calories are. (I am doing Jillian Michaels DVD's and record it at 180 for 20mins and 280 for 35mins depending on the video.) If I…
