  1. I too suffered with hyperemesis and the constant spitting (sorry TMI) during both of my pregnancies thus the 9 year age difference. Said I was not going through that again. I was put on medication in the second pregnancy and it worked so ask your doctor for something. No need for you to suffer. Hugs
  2. My stall broke when I ate more.
  3. I also agree with Ready about evaluating what you're doing. This is not a rule and only a base but I was told to use this to stay in weightloss mode. Of course, your activity level would dictate your calorie levels. Daily Intake Calories 600-1000 Protein 80-100 grams Water 10 cups + Carbs 20-40 grams I am not a NUT and you should consult one to find out what levels would be good for you so don't take this as gospel but rather just a base to help you in evaluating. Good luck.
  4. For me, it's a term of endearment. I agree with Ashleyc.
  5. I have several items available. Please view my photo gallery for some items. I could not upload the other items but will send an email with pics if you're interested in seeing what else is available. Please make an offer if you see something you want. Oh, the pictures I was not able to upload are mostly dresses.
  6. Thanks. I will try this tomorrow. I love the Old World Kitchen brand chicken patties with spinach and feta. Sam's sells it and it is really good.
  7. I'll try grilling it on a real grill but if it doesn't work I will probably give them away. I used an electric grill. I'm a fried fish kinda girl so I guess fish prepared any other way just can't live up. You are definately right about frozen 'fresh' fish especially if it's fillets you get it from a grocery store. Most grocery stores don't have workers to clean and fillet fish. They take them right out of the boxes/bags in the frozen fish freezer section and put them in the display cooler. I'm from coastal GA and I love going to the docks in Jekyll Island to get fresh fish off of the boats. We also do a lot of fishing ourselves too.
  8. Anyone eat these? How do you prepare them? Do you make a sauce? I tried to eat one and it was not so good. I wanted to get rid of the entire box but I thought I would check here for suggestions. They are a great source of protein but I need something to spice it up.
  9. I can really tell a difference. You look great!
  10. Krogers has Carbmaster yogurt. 60 - 80 cal, 8 - 12 proteins and only 4 carbs. I add 1/4 cup to greek for taste or I add Torini syrups or Slenda.
  11. Thanks for sharing! Great video.
  12. Victoria Secrets, here we come!
  13. Good for you! I don't blame you. I dance at home in the mirror every night before my shower. I put the radio on a hip hop station and I do some of the moves I learned from Hip Hop abs and Zumba. My waist has started cinching in.
  14. What a wonderful feeling! That'll probably be your last time setting foot in that store.
  15. I went out to Wally's World (walmart) and got a new bra. I didn't want to pay a lot of money for it especially since I expect I'll need a new size soon. So, I purchased a 38B and it has a small band made of lace, maybe 1 inch in width. So anyway I am wearing the new bra and have it attached to the second or middle row (NSV 1) and it's lying flat against my back(NSV 2). It hasn't rolled into any creases or it isn't digging into my back, it's just lying flat. My back fat rolls are GONE!!!! All of my other bras have wide 2 1/2 inch or wider bands to cover fat rolls. This is awesome because I am always conscious of how my shirts look from the back. I have broad shoulders and that plus back fat rolls is not a good look on me. Now the empty space in the cups is a another story. Loving my sleeve!
  16. Milk of Mag always works for me.
  17. Good for you! I remember when I fit in the bath without touching any of the sides of it.
  18. I use Dr. Graf's products. I've been using the her face products for a year now and I read on here that lotions and creams with collagen is good for loose skin so I'm now using the collagen creams too.
  19. I'm almost three months out too and I too have the same problems. I've already decided I will have to get breast augmentation. As far as my butt goes, it's definitely flatter and I've been so busy concentrating on my thighs and arms that I've neglected it. I'm going to add more butt lift moves to my exercise regimen.
  20. Well, I can't speak for others of course, but I use the dry brush technique and I also wet brush as well (in the shower). I found some body cream with hydrolyzed collagen and hydrolyzed elastin in the top 5 ingredients and I use it twice a day on the areas. I also do 400 to 500 reps with the ole Thighmaster imitation everyday. (yes like the one Suzanne Sommers endorsed) I must say that my skin has/is tightening. I must also say that I don't know if it's because my skin was going to tightening anyway. If nothing else, the cream does keep the area moisturized. When I started loosing, my thighs looked horrible, I mean they were so bad that I didn't let my husband see me without my thighs being covered. They were bad, cellulite, fat pads almost like a "butt" but in the front...but since I started brushing, using the creams, and doing the reps with the thighmaster they look much better. The skin is shrinking along with the fat. Even the cellulite seems to be diminishing as well. I was just saying I think that by the end of next month the area should be normal looking. There are videos on youtube about dry brushing and I get the cream from hsn dot com in case you wanted to know. I received a gift card for amazon dot com and used it to buy the thighmaster- imitation. It was a good buy. I'm not one to tell folks to run out and buy stuff because what works for some may not work for others.
