lose weight while pregnant?
I'm a regular at MFP but recently found out I am 7 weeks pregnant. Wondering if anyone still tried to lose weight while pregnant or is that a losing battle all together? Through MFP and one year of hard work I was able to get down to my lowest of 137....but I already feel myself gaining weight..mostly water weight right…

sabotaged my diet
Soo.. I've been doing pretty good.. finally got over my plateau..and then came Saturday.. the 2000 calorie day ...where it should have been only 1200. I even went over my maintenaince cal of 1800 which is scary. And it wasn't even the food that killed me.. I did SO good at a BBQ we went to...even passed on the birthday…

How Scary!
This is a surefire way of knowing I am a MFP addict..Can you believe I had a MFP dream? It was like some kind of reunion party or something at a hall..catered with all healthy foods of course..and a lot of familiar faces and names..I remember having a lot of fun so I guess that's all that matters haha!
-
Now What?
OK..so the last time my son was in the hospital.. I hit my plateau.....for over a month because of everything going on.. until some lovely people here on MFP told me to up my calories..and it worked..I finally broke free from my plateau and lost 2 lbs. Well....my son is back in the hospital...and here i am.....with 560…
-
It's about time!
I finally broke out of my month long plateau!!!! I bumped up my calories a good amount....and even though I haven't gotten myself back on a set workout schedule I finally...FINALLY saw the scale budge... 2 lbs!!!! Yes, I know.... 2 lbs is nothing..but being stuck at 145 for sooooo long.. it is nice to see the scale…

Funny..
My 6 yr old was on the computer earlier..and I didn't realize she was playing around on MFP..... well she had me eating about 15000000000000 slices of pizza for dinner tonight.. When I clicked on the " If every day were like today" button.. I almost passed out LOL If every day were like today... You'd weigh 171314537.4 lbs…

OT: Prednisone
Anyone have any experience with the medication Prednisone? I am just curious because my 10 yr old has been on a high dose of it for over a month now due to Crohn's disease..and the two biggest side effects I have noticed is he is ALWAYS hungry....and his cheeks are really puffy now. Like waterweight or something? He is…

This time I'm going over in protein..maybe someone can tell me what I am doing wrong..or things I can change. It seems like even when I go over…
-
It just drives me crazy!
Negative people...I know they mean well..but still! Ever since I lost some weight they come out from behind the bushes to tackle me! First it was my mom..who commented I'm loosing too much weight..I must be stressed out..or something is wrong ( Couldn't POSSIBLY be because I have been eating better and burning…

Cal Question
Ok this has probably been answered a million times... So I am stuck.. not gaining weight..not loosing weight....been stuck here for weeks! I know some people say to actually eat more calories to boost metabolism? But isn't this defeating the purpose of trying to lose weight not gain? I am on the recommended 1200 cal diet..…

I'm Stuck!
I don't know what's wrong here. My scale went on strike! When I first started MFP I lost about a pound or more a week.. now my scale isn't budging. I haven't changed much..

What's worse?
Ok..i'm sure this has been asked before.. but what's worse at the end of the day..going over Calories, Carbs , Protein or Fat? I tend to some days be over in my carbs..other days over in my protein...when I still have a good 200 calories left.
