hi all
although I have been signed up for a few months this is my first real look around mumsnet and saying hello! this category caught my eye as I am a calorie counter myself, trying to loose quite a large amount of weight, I managed to go my whole pregnancy gining minimal weight and now 5 months after giving birth I am at my prepregnanch weight which sadly is rather big I use myfitnesspal and multiple meal replacement shakes etc and as always its a struggle
anyway just wanted to say hi and that I am looking forward to getting to know a few new people and have some laughs!

Hi amy I'm a dedicated calorie counter but I'm currently pregnant and cant stop eating.
You will find this topic really quiet unfortunately.
Anyway I hope you really enjoy being a mumsnetter. I'll still talk calories with you.

thankyou hun how far along are you? is it sad that I really miss being pregnant despite constantly moaning when I was?....lol
I ate constantly when I was expecting my son, god knows how I'm not the size of a house (I do feel it though!) being pregnant with my daughter 13 years ago is where my weight problems started though...I ate horribly! not long been doing the whole calorie counting MFP thing so any advice will be well recieved xxx

I'm 12+3 but got my first scan tomorrow eek!
Have you got any low cal meal ideas? The mfp website has some good ones.

hi!

i love mfp (and my fitbit! )
i find it works fo use it as a food planning tool, so i try to plan my main meals for the day , then i know how much wiggle room ive got for any snacks etc throughout the day.
feel free to add me, my username is hayls321go

my fave low cal meal is, stirfry with lean chicken, prawns or none battered/breaded fish.
