So once you get to solid foods I know you need to be watching carbs, calories, sugar, and protein intake. What have you set your daily limit to be? How long have you been doing this? How successful have you been ?

I went to my seminar on 7/25/11. I was told to stay at 1200 calories, 50-80 Protein, no more than 68grms Carbs, 64 oz Water & exercise at least 3 X a week.

I keep that in mind but don't usually get to 1200 anymore! I sure get the protein. I finally signed up for myfitnesspal this week. great way to keep track of your food intake.

I exercise every day now, I park far from the store to walk more, it is such a change from the old me!

Enjoy the ride!!!

I'm reaching my 70 g protein a day. But I'm falling short on calories. But I'm also still in the mushy stage now.

I mainly just count my proteins, make sure i get 70 grams at least daily. then i just kind of watch what else i eat, making sure it is lower calorie, lower fat things. i don't really watch my carbs too much, i can eat pasta and whole wheat bread with no issues. i am 8 months out and have lost 50 lbs and 4 to 5 dress sizes now. i can wear a size XL and it has been forever since i could do that. i am 10 lbs from my pre pregnancy weight with my first son and i can't tell you how estactic i am about that. i also do lots of walking and do cardio/weights 3 days a week.

I've started walking with the kiddos. But I wasn't sure myself how many calories I should be taking in. I'm aiming for 800 calories bc sometimes I don't even make that. But I do make my 70 g protein. I was hoping I could get an average from the seasoned bandsters.
