I was so hungry all night last night. I swear it kept me awake--usually doesn't happen!
Water: 10+ glasses When was your last meal: 9:00 p.m. When did you go to bed: 10:30 p.m.
It is just fascinating to read what other people are eating--when I read what some of you are eating, I think, "That's nothing! How can she not eat the house down after a day like that!!" And with others, I think, "Wow, I wish I could eat that many meals and still end up with only 1400 (or whatever) calories."
So tell me your secrets! How do you do it??? (And look at me, I'm the Queen of Fiber, so don't tell me it's the fiber . . . .)

| I have a son who is home schooled thru a school in the area and it is nicer, the school my other children go to is too slow for him. His IQ was tested and he should be doing higher classes than they were willing to put him in so we are doing home schooling and he is doing well. My oldest son is now in college and is bored to tears, but he enjoyed going to public school because of the interaction of the other kids.

Thanks ladies for helping Amanda with her question. I couldn't help her because I had my kids natural.

Amanda, I have not had a c section, but I have heard that there is a difference depending on the type of cut they did on you. My older friend had 2 c sections, one looks much better than the other. She said it damaged her muscles or something. As far as the post baby belly, I think it is much like stretch marks and depends on your genetics. You are doing so well. My cousin lost her baby weight on Sparks and at 1st her belly looked awful, like a deflated balloon with loose skin, but after awhile it began to tighten up. Rebecca

Ladies don't congradulate me yet. I haven't started the job. I know it's not going to be easy. I just found out that I will be doing one on one with her clients and I will be doing some time of bootcamp training. So I am not sure how I am going to do all this.
My husband is coming tomorrow and Tuesday, I have to bake some spooky cupcakes for my daughters Halloween Party.
I start working Monday, so I will need help from you ladies to try to motivate each other. At least for a couple of days until I get a little organize at work.
I am trying to make an effort to stay with you ladies but I do need your support from you. Because we are a team and we have to help each other.
Good Day Ladies and thank you ladies for posting the way I had showed you.

I have aquestion for everyone. I have 2 kids both delivered c-section and my stomach is a mess.
Will my stomach ever be normal again?
I hear so many different sides. One will say yes w/ hard work, others say it doesn't matter what you do only surgery will correct it.
It is so frustrating losing the baby weight but not the baby stomach. I might as well be pregnant again.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE answer my question.

Hey everyone. Congratulations Lu! I tip my hat to you for running this post b/c I got a little temp job and couldn't keep up with myself moreover everyone else. Ok I forgot to post on Wednesday and then got swamped yesterday so I'm gonna do my best to post both days. Hhere goes...
1. Stretch? Yep for 15 mins on Wed but nothing on Thurs 2. Cardio? Yep 30 mins on bike on W and a short walk to the library (about 10-15 mins each way) on Th. 3. Strength train? Yep on W but not on Th. 4. Water? I found out I do better when I'm at work rather than at home so only about 4 glasses each day. 5. Calorie intake? Didn't get to track it either day but tried to watch what I was eating and how much. 6. Journal? Nope. 7. Stop eating before bed? Yep...not having an issue with this one like I thought I would b/c I always had late night cravings. 8. Meals? Can't remember but I've been steady with 3 meals each day and the # of snacks is what changes. Still not able to go 3-4 hrs b/w eating but am waiting at least 1 1/2-2.
Sorry if these are out of order but I'm doing them from memory at work.
Ok I have a question and an observation...
My observation: Ladies if you think Lu is crazy when she says not to pay attention to the scale here is a story for you...I did our weigh in on Monday and came in at 232 even higher than where I started and wanted to die. I went back to the gym on Wednesday and decided to step on the scale out of curiosity because I "felt" lighter. I know it's crazy. Anyway, I stepped on the scale and lo and behold it said 226.5. 6 pounds lighter than I was 2 days before!!!!!!! Now did I carve six pounds out of my body somewhere, no?! As women our body weight will fluctuate for a variety of reasons, water retention, our monthly cycle or just being off that dy. So don't pay attention to the #s look at your consistency, your resting heart rate (which I'll probably have to explain), and how you feel.
My question...if I make something from scratch, can I add up all the nutrition info from the various ingredients and then determine my own nutrition information per serving of the finished product? That's what I did for my lasagna and just wnted to make sure it made sense...LOL.

I will get on counting carbs by next week. I am happy that I have made the change to detail my intake better this week. No alcohol or exercise, not enough water. I will be incorporating salads into each day starting today. I know that always gives me a big boost in energy, weight loss, and also my vege intake gets to where it needs to be.
9:00am 20 oz mocha, med plain bagel w/cream cheese 12 oz water 12:30pm 1/4 cup potatoe salad, 1/4 cup baked beans, 1/4 lb roast chicken no skin, diet pepsi 4:00pm 1/2 chicken breast no skin 6:45pm 1 chicken taco, diet pepsi 7:45pm rice krispie treat Total calories = 1140 Feel bloated from all the diet pepsi and little water.

Quick checking:
Larell_M: I have made the change. Thanks.
Eve: Thanks. My puppy's name is Napoleon. My daughter named him. Right now, I am a house wife but I have worked in a surgical officce before, then I have been in accounting for a management office. I have also worked in Appraisal (real estate) and in a morgage company. My first job was in a car dealer running the business (office duty). But I always loved fitness and nutrition (there comes my cooking skills) and I have surrounded myself with people that dedicated their time in that field. Well, I think I answered your question. Posting on the stats in detail like I demostrated will give me a good idea on what you are doing.
For everyone else, if you don't post your stats in the new form, then I am going to assume that its too much trouble for you. Or that you are okay with what you're doing and that you don't need any personal advice. It's okay then.
I need to go.

WOW!! Great to be back!! And thanks Lu for checking on me! Felt wonderful!
This weekend I'll be working on getting back into the swing of things. I faultered a bit (lame excuse - "girly" time), and my son was sick, and extremely clingy, which I'll never complain about. It's great when he just wants to sleep on my belly like he did as an infant. He's 5 now, so any snuggy time is well accepted. Unfortunately housework & exercise don't happen then.
Anyway, I'm back!! Yipee!!

hi all- yesterday was my school day so no exercising. I needed the day off too. My muscles in my legs were killing me. I'm swamped today so I probably will end up walking tonight while my daughter has sim practice and doing my strength training tomorrow.
Yesterday I did ok, except I usually eat a big lunch and then just a light snack after class like sugar free pudding because I'm still not hungry. I take a big Iced tea with me to class. However, it's been so cold that I got hot chocolate instead last night. The sugar in the hot chocolate must have triggered an insulin reaction because by break I was starving! I ended up getting a bag of baked lays potato chips because that was the best thing in the vending machine that I could find. Won't get the hot chocolate again! I'll stick with tea. Too many calories anyway.

NOTICE THAT THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE THAT HAVEN'T BEEN POSTING. NEXT WEEK, THE LIST WILL BE REDUCED AGAIN.
I STILL HAVE ALL 105 PARTICIPANT INFORMATION LIST.
Our Topic for today:
Don't Forget Exercise!
What would a diet plan be without some kind of physical activity required? A fad or hoax, perhaps. Extremely difficult, for sure.
Your plan should include cardiovascular training to facilitate greater fat loss, starting at an easy pace and gradually building up to 45-50 minutes per session before you increase the intensity.
When you're ready, make the exercise harder and raise your heart rate to increase the total number of calories burned. Setting the treadmill on an incline, pedaling the bike faster and stair-stepping against greater resistance are all examples of how you can increase the intensity of your workouts.
Mix things up with interval aerobics. "If you get in a rut or your weight loss is slowing, try bike sprints, where you pedal as hard as you can for one minute followed by two minutes of an easier intensity. It's a great workout that keeps your heart rate high and burns more calories than simply pedaling like a robot."
Whatever you do, don't think that doing more cardio faster will be better; excessive aerobics can be as detrimental as reducing your calories too severely. Besides being unsustainable for long periods, "Too much [aerobics] too soon with too few carbs and calories can send your body into a starvation mode, where it fights to hold onto its fat stores and lean muscle mass."
"If you aren't currently doing any aerobic work, start with three times a week for 20-30 minutes. By the end of the second week, make one of those a 45-minute session. By the third week, you should be able to complete three 45-50-minute sessions."
Build up to 4-6 cardiovascular sessions a week if you like, just remember that three weekly cardio workouts is the minimum to achieve any kind of benefit.
For optimal results, you'll need to train with weights, too. Resistance training signals the body to hold onto muscle mass, and the more muscle you keep, the higher your metabolic rate.
In a study published in the Journal of American College Nutritionist, West Virginia University (Morgantown) researchers found that when high-volume resistance-training programs were added to low-calorie diets, lean bodyweight was preserved.
A control group that added just cardiovascular activities to their programs lost a significant amount of lean bodyweight. Losing muscle isn't what we're after.
Good Day Ladies and have a wonderful weekend.
I will be back to check up on you ladies.
