Did my 20 sec plank today.....after ejecting my almost 3 year old off "his neigh's back" I got a kick in the side and a yee haw neigh!! lol I was shaking some after that first 15 seconds....that is a no shitted thing there

I've been taking a probiotic for well over a month now! I was told after sx that if I was having trouble "poop'n" to take it for as long as I needed and could for life If I so chose. It still takes a few days to get things moving but I've been regular ever since. I take a hand full of Vitamins, birth control, and probiotic with my coffee each morning. It's a beautiful thing I tell ya. I ran out for a few days and I totally felt the repercussion on that slight over site! HA

We can do this lady!!! It's like you just get comfy at a place and have to change it up. But this is our learning process and I think we got this!!

Mkak... How's the carbs on that shake? I'm game to try but I'm a carb freak lately

GG got me hooked on chike coffee....its wonderful

Oh I can eat 3 to 4 oz of taco meat with cheese or shredded chicken too. I've even tryd to fit 3 oz on a tiny freaking taco shell most fell out sigh. But I feel the same way, that I eat more. But being ob mfp I get to see how others are eating. I'm pushing for more cals now. Which is weird tryn to figure out new foods to eat at the same meal size I've been eating but not tryn to stuff myself by eating more than u can handle. See my dilemma?

I wanna run!

What is everyone's New Year's Resolutions? Mine always used to be as follows... 1) Quit Smoking 2) Lose Weight 3) Eat Healthier 4) Join a Gym Now that I have accomplished 3 or the 4 I find I'm not sure what else I want so bad! How bout' you what are you striving for this next year?!!

Dang.... I'm always a day late lol I'll start tomorrow.

Just found this but I'm in....ummm will hafta start tomorrow

Thanks for that It was very informational.

I'm 3 months post op and take one a day. My surgeon told me to take it if I thought I needed it after surgery. Let me tell ya if they suggest it, it's probably a good idea. I wish I had started one before. Its a blessing I tell ya. I just got mine from Walmart/ Brand is Pearl I believe. Totally a life saver.

ersopher on mfp

Ummm I might have gotten mad at a few creepers calling me "Baby" Seems like I lost a lot of the hun and sweetie while being in the ruder NW. And it's so different here. sigh

That's just how much I eat. well cept for today. always 1/2 cup of cottage cheese with sf jam. Meat I could get 3-4 oz depending.

Or what about "BABY" I got called baby by everyone in the south

It was a military thing for me. I say ma'am and sir a lot. However I cuss like a sailor when I'm mad! lol Ya'll I picked up in NC but have lost that one being back in the Northwest for 7 years. I have not lost soda tho, here is pop. I'll correct that....I wasn't military my husband was. But I lived it too damn it.

I might add that I seem to eat a bit or two more than I used to....

It might be worth a try. I'd call your nut and see where they want you. But I'm with ya. I feel different all the sudden. Not sure if it's TOM or not. I didn't miss eating at all but I find lately I'm thinking about it and hungry it seems. I'm positive it head hunger right now. I still don't "feel" hungry if that makes since. I eat when I know I should. I have to pre plan my day on MFP!!

Ya That was my idea. But even that's hhhhard lol its probably mental. I cant seem to wrap my head around upping my calorie intake to lose weight. Goes against everything I have ever done. LOL But it seemed to work so far.

Yes please do ask. I'm interested in knowing there advice for you

I'm at 3 months and 700 calories too. Hmmm maybe time to write to my doctor and ask She said something to the effect that at that low of calories it's hard for our body's to sustain that few calories and loose weight. Possible that our body's will get to that starvation mode if we hold that few for so long. She liked it to doing p90x. Said its great and works but you cant do it forever. It's just not possible for out body to keep doing that routine daily and function correctly. That even the trainer has to incorporate other actives or he couldn't sustain that amount of cal burn or body. Does that make since? I understand but dang it brings me to a whole new food area and I'm comfortable here. Which is probably why I need to move on and keep learning.

It's going to be TOM for me too and I'm feeling the hunger creep up slowly. Can you increase fat and Protein more? Did they say why you need to increase calories at this point? I'm assuming I can increase all. They said at my 3 month apt that I was way to low at 700 calories and needed to be around 1000. So I'm trying to up it but seems upping comes with more carbs ect.... My day tomorrow looks pretty good carb wise but I have to sit and mess with it to get the cal and carbs where I wanna be. However upping my cals so far had broke me outta the week and half stall I was in.

That's about where I'm at. It's harder now that I've been told to up my calories. Its a struggle. It puts me in a whole new food area. I also am feeling way more hungrier today. Like I cant get enough to eat. Still only a 1/2 cup of soup's and soft stuff but I feel like I need to eat more often. I think I had to many carbs and It has had a negative effect. Upping my calories has me upping my carbs it seems.mmm Could be TOM??

So how much is everyone eating portion wise 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, or a cup per meal?
