Competition losing weight?
This is partially due to another thread and then because I am doing a competition starting tomorrow. I really don't care if my team wins- I am using it for accountability with my team. I plan to eat proper calories- I like food too much to starve myself! What do you all think of competing as a motivator? Do you think with…

Food dreams
Had a dream about conversation hearts last night. I use to eat two bags (with like 200 pieces) a day during V-day season. I doubt I would still do that, but can't be a good sign :-). Anyone dream of favorite binge foods?

Confused! Fitbit, tdee, and nursing!
I just bought my fitbit one (love it!). But now I am lost again! I was doing TDEE-15% plus 500 for nursing and moderately active for 2650 calories. (BMR 1620). So with the fitbit, I put my numbers in and said sedentary which gave me 1660. So I know I have to net at least this. I add nursing as cardio (1minute) and any…

Ladies- sports bra, nursing, and huge boobs- help
So I am a 38G and nursing. My daughter seems to always wake up at some point when I have workout gear on. I have put my sports bras (yes I wear two) three times for just 1 workout!. I keep seeing bras claiming to be for large chests, but they go up to DD. Anyone have a good nursing sports bra? I need high impact bra as I…

High calorie food for sensitive stomach
I am still recovering from the stomach bug and really need to keep up with calories as I am nursing. Any ideas on food that won't upset my stomach, but high calories? No nuts (allergies). I have been netting like 500 for the past 4-5 days. Thanks!

Still feel weak?
I have been doing this 5 weeks (repeated one week for 3&4), but I still get so sore and worn out. I think I am improving my form, increasing range of motion, and doing more reps, but not sure if it is true! I feel like I am saying all that to make me feel better. I am tempted to do workout 1 & 2 just to see if it is a lot…

LBM and workouts (JMBR)- concerned
So I am new to actually being healthy. I use to be skinny (the coffee, smoking, no car, or money for food diet). Slowly gained, but now I am trying to do this all right. My confusion currently is how to retain as much LBM while at a deficit. I am doing jillian michaels Body Revolution until my youngest can do gym daycare.…

EBF, growth spurts, and hungry! Vent
My three month old is hitting a growth spurt- she is either crying or eating with a few interruptions of sleep. It is killing my eating- I have only one arm usually so I am eating easy one hand foods. Can't really cook (she doesn't want to be in any carrier). I am so tired between her and my 2 year old, husbands offered to…

NSV- my toddler is eating better
Just really started- I love heathy food, but I love "junk" food too. Over the few years, it has been a lot more junk than anything else. I saw my daughter heading the same way which was my fault- she is only two after all. Lunches have always been my downfall for both of us. But, today I was watching her have lunch- she…

Tdee and breastfeeding
I am 34, 5'7", 195 lbs. I am breastfeeding full time an infant and workout 6 days a week at 30 minutes. I stay home, but chase a toddler so not just all sitting. I calculated TDEE-15% (moderately active) plus breastfeeding (500 calories). I got 2670 for calories. I am new to the eating more- actually new to trying to lose…
