My Motivation :)
Rediscovered that my kids are my greatest motivators. I had my middle child with me the other day (4 1/2 years). We had some time to kill between exercise class (he Zumba'd with me) and a meeting at work, which was nearby. We stopped at McDonald's to get a drink. He happened to see an apple lying in the backseat of the car…

Utter fail :(
It's only 1:10pm here and I'm already nearly 1000 calories over AFTER a 45 minute kickboxing workout. I'm eating too much junk at night. Tips for 3rd shift snacking?

Sick!
So, the other morning I totally regurgitated everything I had eaten from about 3 am on. I'm pretty sure I had some kind of 24 hour bug. I deleted everything I had eaten from my food diary. I'm assuming (like I said) my stomach completely emptied itself. Thoughts on this?

Weighing in?
I have a feeling this question has been asked thousands of times already, but how often do you weigh yourself? I don't want to weigh in too often/too soon. I fell off the wagon through the holidays and am essentially starting off fresh (I gained another 10 pounds :( ). I'm getting curious as I have been making myself at…

Calling it a "cheat day" lol
After only putting in calories for the other night (I work 3rd shift), I think its safe to say yesterday was definitely a cheat day for me. I refuse to put in the rest of the calories and horrify myself. Really trying hard to not let it bother me.

Yoga videos?
I really enjoy doing vinyasa yoga (I have one beginner video on my Kindle). Anybody know of any good yoga videos? I'm wanting to look into yoga for weight loss too.

Sensible diet
I work 3rd shift and have 3 kids (ages 6, 4 and 9 months). Anybody have any idea of any sensible (and cheap) diet I can follow without buying/cooking things that the rest of the family won't eat?

3rd shift exercising
I have a terrible time trying to exercise when I'm working 3rd shift. I have plenty of down time, but I just don't do it mostly because I feel silly if I'm the only one exercising. Anybody have any exercise ideas that won't look terribly odd to my co-workers?

3rd shift help
I work 3rd shift (11p-7a) and I'm still not sure when to start my food for each day. Any thoughts, facts, opinions, experiences?

Cheating?
So I don't always have a lot of time for exercise, but I do practice babywearing almost daily. I count this time as my exercising because I am up moving around with my daughter (the whole 20 lbs of her) strapped to me. I know I should be doing more, but at this point, any movement is good movement. Anybody else feel like…

Gooey No-Bake Oatmeal Bars
I got this recipe when I was breastfeeding. I can't get them to set up, but they are still delicious :) 2 cups oatmeal 1 cup peanut butter 1/2 cup honey I was adding chocolate chips for more flavor into mine, but dried fruit wasn't bad either. Just mix them together and lay it into a baking sheet. I was just putting it all…

Hello
My name is Meghan. I'm 24 with 2 step sons (4 and 5) and my daughter is 6 months old. I managed to lose my baby weight and then put it right back. I have more to go after that though. I feel like I have a ways to go, but after seeing the teenagers at my job are in way better shape, I have lots of motivation. I look forward…
