Is anyone doing Carb Nite Solution?
If not, is there a way to search the board for key words to look for other threads about it? Is there a way to change my food diary to reflect my macro goals - not the fitness pal ones? If you are doing carb nite, how far in are you? Are you still losing well? What are your favorite meals?

Dieting on an IBS diet. Any pointers?
So my last two weight loss cycles were miserable. My IBS was HORRIBLE. I cramped all the time. First I thought it was just the increase in fiber so I just stuck with it.

Does anyone have a Fit-Bit? Do you love it?
My husband just told me about these things, and now I really really want one. But before I drop $100 on one, I'd like to hear from someone who actually owns one to see if it does what it says its supposed to do. Thanks!

I was really getting frustrated because I had lost 22lbs, but I had only lost 1 pant size. :P I knew the weight was correct because I am doing weight checks with my dr 1x a month.

Sports bras!
Should have included this in with my question about run capris, but forgot to. I need a FIRM sports bra. No bounce. I'm a 38DD and gravity is not my friend right now. I made it thru two babies with only minimal lost in elevation, but these last 5lbs I swear I can feel my skin stretching above my boobs, which are starting…

I have been plugging along diligently and watching the weight come off slowly but steadily. I've went thru a couple of stressful periods with little to no emotional eating despite the desire too. I went for a walk, called up a friend, took the kids on a family outing, etc... But when life throws you a big ugly life…

So I've lost 20bs and have about 50 more to go. I went clothing shopping yesterday, and it was the first good look I have gotten of myself in a full length mirror with bright lighting since I started dieting.
