Any other pregnant mamas?
Are there any other pregnant mamas that would like to be friends? I am 25 weeks with baby number three and have been having more trouble eating healthy this time around than I did with my other two! Looking for pregnant mamas for motivation and accountability!
What do you mix up in...
What do you all mix up in a blender bottle? I am 23 weeks pregnant and only dancing, walking, and chasing littles ones for now. I had been advised to start eating more healthy by my OB. I have never really had a problem with eating healthy but this pregnancy has been the worst for my eating habits. My others were not like…
tightening skin after weightloss/pregnancy??
What kinds of creams, compression clothing, exercises...etc worked to help tighten your skin? I had a baby about a year ago. I lost weight right away and my tummy retracted noticeably weekly. I gained weight back after about 3 months post partum due to being a new mom and newly stay-at-home wife and mom with no set…
Are you on a low/non-dairy and/or gluten free diet?
My diet is low dairy and entirely gluten free right now. I'm having trouble staying full. I need help here! I've been eating mostly fruits and veggies. I eat meat at lunch (not a lot) and a serving of meat at dinner. I have trouble with feeling hungry between meals, especially after exercise and between breakfast and…
Looking for supportive friends on the Paleo diet for PCOS.
I'm looking for friends who are on the Paleo diet for over-all health and for PCOS. I originally started the Paleo diet for weightloss and I thought I had a slight gluten allergy. I still think I have a gluten allergy but after dealing with infertility for the last year and a half, I've been diagnosed finally with PCOS. I…
What are your favorite Paleo websites and books?
Title says it all. We are partially paleo family. My family eats basically whatever but I eat paleo everyday except one night we go to gram and pappys each week for supper. I eat what they serve to be nice but load up on whatever meat and veggies and keep anything "non-paleo" in way smaller portions than I normally would…
Best gluten-free semi-"all purpose" flour?
We are starting a semi-paleo diet. I'm finding that gluten is not good for my stomach and I get sick when I eat more than a small serving of beans. We are allowing dairy and rice since I seem to have absolutely no issues with either of them. I am wondering what kind of flour those who have gone mostly paleo or gluten free…
Fish...give me some new ideas.
We eat fish about once a week. Usually grilled, baked or fried with lemon or lemon and pepper. That's all. Nothing special. Well, we were given 2 gallon size ziplock bags half full of fillets after a fish fry this weekend that need used within the next few days... It will make about 3-4 meals. It can't be refrozen. Give me…
How should I do this?
I posted in another place but didn't get any answers. I'm fairly new to weightloss and am slightly lost. Basically on Monday, I plan to start the 30 day shred over again in the mornings just after my hubby leaves for work (I haven't done the shred in 2 months) and I plan to walk (work my way up to running) for the hour he…
When should I and what should I eat...
My hubby's schedule is nuts. He leaves by 6 every morning and doesn't get home until anywhere from 5-9 at night. He comes home for an hour ish for lunch each day. I have been wanting to walk (work my way to running) daily to lose weight and get into shape. With his schedule and when it gets daylight/dark I couldn't do this…
Need a healthier hot wings recipe!
I plan to surprise my hubby with hotwings, brussel sprouts (yes he really likes them) and baked potato wedges tomorrow night when he gets home from work. Problem is, I haven't found a healthier version of hotwings yet. Any ideas? We like them HOT. Would they turn out ok if I baked them a bit, rolled them in franks with…
Pain under ribs while exercising?
I've been doing the 30 day shred for 2 weeks. My joints hurt SO bad from this. Is this normal? Also I am doing a cardio dance work out. If I do more than just marching (like if I twist my hips or put my arms up) I get an awful pain right under my ribcage on the left side to the point that it takes my breath away and I have…
Calculating Calories Eating/Losing?
I am so new to weight loss and calorie counting. How do you calculate what you are losing? I walk. I dance. I'm doing the 30 day shred. We swim. We hike. How do I guage the amount of calories I'm losing with each activity? Also for food. We raise a lot of our own food. Venison, Beef, Pork, Chicken, Turkey, eggs, milk,…

Turkey?
So, it's only my hubby and I...and an almost 1 year old who doesn't eat a lot of meat easily yet. I have a big turkey (17-20 pounds...big for 2 1/2 people to eat). It's been in the freezer for a while and I need to do something with it! I have it in the fridge thawing. Any suggestions? I plan to roast it with some stuffing…
