#3 12 weeks ago
Hi girls. I'm excited to be breastfeeding again. I started stronglifts 5x5 at 8 weeks postpartum. I feel great. I think 3rd time is a charm with exercise, calories and breastfeeding.

Lifting and expecting
Just found out I'm expecting my 3rd. I'm only 6 weeks. I've been lifting for 2 years and heavy lifting since January. Besides battling first trimester symptoms I really don't plan on stopping. I feel I shouldn't try to max out any more but I don't want to back down on the weight I can dead lift and squat. No one knows yet…

S Snacks
Hi, I'm new to THM life style and I'm still reading the book. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for a S snack that I could make/ buy to keep at my desk during the week days? It needs to be something that doesn't need to be kept cool. Thanks in advance

Changes in Milk
This time around I feel like my breast milk is fatter......if that is even possible. I notice the layer of fat in the bottles of pump milk that day care feeds my baby is thicker. Also when I hand wash the bottles it seems harder to get clean do to the fat that is across the surface of the dish water. I eat a very high fat…

How many push ups can you do???
I'm up to 13 in a set. I'm guessing some of you ladies probably can pass that number without breathing hard. I'm not sure my goal but I'm going to keep going. I'm also up to 80 lb dead lift (not counting the bar) and 50 lb bench press. My next challenge will be pull ups. Where are you at with push ups. :)

Compression sleeves
Does anyone have experience with them? Has I get stronger and I'm lifting heavier as well as occasionally running long distances I think I'm not recovering like I use too. I'm also curious about benefits from performance while wearing them.

Hoosiers on their lunch hour?
What do other Hoosiers do during their lunch hour? I walk every day during my lunch hour. Hot or Cold I walk 1.75 miles. But today, with the rain and ice mix, I don’t think I’m going out. Any other ideas?
