Pregnancy and light jogging
I'm receiving conflicting advice on this so am interested as to whether someone here can point me towards some good articles. We are pregnant with our third. I've lost 14/15kg and maintained goal weight for the last 18 months and have a healthy BMI, I'm a stay at home mum but am quite busy during the day. I've never been…

When to stop losing weight and start maintaining
I've been calorie counting for just over 2 years now. I've lost 34lbs and am now weighing 130lbs. I'm 5'4" and I am what I would consider a healthy weight/size now (minus the tummy flab from my two kiddies). Someone told me yesterday that they think I'm looking underweight :frown: I would have liked to have kept counting a…

Help!
What started off as a bit of difficulty eating bread and oatmeal, seems to have branched into pizza and pasta and most baked food included. I'm thinking I've developed a bit of an intolerance to wheat or yeast so will be going to see my doctor about it this week to determine. I've managed to cut the bread and oatmeal from…

The last few pounds
I managed to get within 3lbs of my goal weight a few months back and started to get a bit lazy with counting and gained 4lbs back. I'm now 7lbs away (9lbs if I go within this mornings scale reading) I'm not sure what I can do to kick start my metabolism. I've been at this weight for 2 months now! Is this my body's happy…

A different type of support....
Hi lovely MFP'ers...not sure what the rules are about this but I've just started up my own business and would love some support (even just by taking a look at the blog or finding me on Facebook): [REMOVED BY ADMIN - sorry, we don't allow advertising on the forums] BUT, if you'd like to buy or try anything then you're more…

30 Day Shred and really stiff!
So without sounding whiney, I started the 30 Day Shred yesterday. Last night I loved the feeling of the stiffness (muscles I hadn't felt in ages showed they were still there) but then after doing it again this morning, I'm quite sore. Battling to sit down and stand cos my legs and bum are really tight. I'm a busy mum with…

Manual Treadmill?
I'm thinking about getting a treadmill but second hand (probably off eBay). Budget is tiny and space is limited and I'm seeing loads of manual ones going for next to nothing. Thing is, I'm a bit concerned about it using my momentum to get it going. I've only ever used the motorised ones in gyms. Are they difficult to use…

Non-surgical boob lift?
Does anyone know what this is officially called? A friend mentioned it to me the other day. Apparently, it involves small incisions about the breasts and the tissue pulled up and stitched tighter, or something like that. You're in and out same day. Anyone had something like that done? Anyone know where to have it done in…

Wii Exercise games...too many to choose from!?!?!
Hi all, my weakness is exercise DVDs but I've done most of the workouts so many times now that I know what is coming next. Looking to mix it up a bit. I have a Wii and so started searching for some good fitness games to buy but I don't know which one to choose. Any recommendations and advice would be greatly appreciated.…

Breastfeeding and milk supply
I've only been counting calories for about two weeks now and am noticing a difference in inches lost already (YAY). I am exclusively breastfeeding my 4 month old son but I'm naturally concerned that possibly this is all affecting my milk supply. He's still having wet nappies etc but last night he didn't stretch as long…

Ready for a change
I joined today by recommendation of a fellow mommy-friend. My two little kids (both under 3 years old) have left me looking, let's just say, a little out of shape. My hubby has said he'll support me however I need him to, to let this be the year that I can focus a bit of my energy on myself and getting my body into a size…
