Weight loss help!
I am trying to be realistic. I only have about an hour to work out (at most) a day since I have a 5 month old. I eat about 1200 calories a day, sometimes more. I am also breastfeeding. Do you all think I will be able to lose 20 lbs in a couple months or is this really a much slower process? I have lost 5 lbs already, but I…

Anyone have any healthy snack ideas? Lately I have been eating a lot of hummus...rice cakes and hummus, celery and hummus, rice crackers and hummus. But I would love some new ideas. I like salty foods but am trying to cut down on my sodium intake. I don't have much of a sweet tooth so fruits and yogurt aren't always…

Breastfeeding calories
Should I be adding breastfeeding to my food diary? It says that I can subtract 500 calories. If that is true (since I only eat about 1200-1400 a day...and I can not eat more than that), then after exercise I am only getting about 500 calories or so a day. Is this correct?

30DS question
I started the 30DS today. I usually do about 30 minutes on the treadmill followed by strength training. But after doing the video I don't feel like I have anything left for the treadmill or anything else. Is it okay if I just do the 20 minute workout alone, or should I also be doing more cardio (such as my usual 30 min. on…

Treadmill
Can you loose weight at a decent rate if you mainly walk (fast) with the incline? I use to jog but hurt my knee a year ago, so jogging on the treadmill is hard for me.

Smart Ones/Weight Watchers
Anyone had any luck loosing weight by mainly eating Smart Ones Weight Watchers microwave meals? I usually prefer making my own food from scratch, but I like the idea of a portioned meal and since I have 5 kids (one of them thats 5 months old) I don't always have time to plan elaborate meals.
