No Gym buddies
I have forever maintained that being healthy shouldn't require going to the gym, but should be a lifestyle that is naturally active. I also just hate gyms (don't have the money, don't have the willpower or the esteem to be there). Any other moms trying to lose the babyweight without the gym? What are you favorite active…

After going to the hospital to get checked out, Baby has a heart beat and all they can figure is my bloodsugar was too low. Its been a struggle to eat...even…

Having trouble using up calories.
SO I know we are not supposed to be losing weight when pregnant, but between weird work schedules and MS all day, I am having a really tough time eating enough. In fact ironically, over the past week I have lost weight and am now only 1 lb away from what my weightloss goal was before knowing I was KU'd. Should I be…

What do you call a Hike?
So on Saturday while camping my husband and I went up to some waterfalls....it was a nice wide gravel trail, 3km, well marked, with very little incline and took only about 35 minutes. On the way back he says to me "that is the kind of hiking I like", and I responded with "why because it was a easy walk on a trail and not…

Iron? (women)

Because I am low I decided to switch out counting sugars for iron on my food logging, but I have a couple questions. 1. How is it measured for logging? Is it mg? g? When I logged my multivitamin…

Zumba Rush for Kinect

I have a question about logging it though. The game tells me I have burned 420 calories in a high intensity short class and if I log 23 minutes of Zumba it only comes…
