Join the 10 Pound Club
Quote From: sherry130Hi All! I am a 42 year old mother of 3 hoping to find support on this message board. 10 pounds doesn't sound like much unless you are the one who has been trying to do it FOREVER. I know I would look & feel much better. I am so busy with my jobs & kids that it is hard to eat right. I stay very active which is a good thing because I am a total stress eater & I also love to bake. I have started reading the weight loss solution book & trying to make sense of all the crazy things I do in the name of food. I would love to find a support budy to stay in touch with & loose those last 10 pounds with. I workout 5 times a week to include cardio and weight training and I will say that 90% is eating. I always have to fight to not gain weight, however I know that sometimes I don't eat enough carbs and your body goes into starvation mode and holds onto the last 10 pounds. I am talking about eating the right things 5 times a day. As soon as I up my carbs a little 1/2c brown rice or 4oz of sweet potatoe 1/2 c oatmeal for my first 3-4 meals the weight starts dropping. 5 meals a day to include protein carbs a little fat 3 hours apart. The first few days you'll feel a little bloated but then amazing things start happening. I know with kids it makes it harder, my advice is to take some time and cook meals for 3-4 days and package them up, then if your out and about take a cooler so you never go past 3 hours to eat.
