Becky was Hi, I’m new!
Wednesday, April 5th, 2006Becky,
I just wanted to encourage you that this is doable. I am going to be 39 this year so I am a bit yournger. But I have 5 kids. This works very well for my family. I don’t think that my kids even know what is going on. Keep it up and you will have the energy to take care of your family.
The only big consessions I make is sometimes there are carbs on the table that I don’t eat. For example last night we had tacos. I just ate a taco salad and no tortilla.
I have been doing this since April and even with the busyness of summer and the lapses in commitment for a bit here and there I have lsot about 40 lbs. Even my lapses are getting smaller and fewer.
Good Luck. You can do this.

I’m so used to eating higher fats, this is really challenging for me. ‘not sure if I have the strength with 4 kids at home, but I hate having gained almost all of my 70 lbs back with this pregnancy. .. Actually, it’s about 45 lbs, but I still wanted to lose 30 more lbs before I got pregnant.
