Morning all.
Humphrey hope you're feeling better today, but if not, do you know what to do with mastitis? Feed, feed, and feed some more. You need to keep the milk flowing and your breasts empty. Express if you can't feed enough. I've got more tips if you need them.
syc your cakes look amazing! Well done! They look like the sort of concoction my children come up with - although usually the sponge is also coloured with food colouring, either pink or green
Superbunny you need to eat fewer calories than you consume to lose weight, basically. Some of us use weight-watchers or slimmers world. Others (like me) are cheapskates and use Ford Focus to count calories and log exercise. You put your current and goal weight in and it tells you how many calories to eat a day with graphs and everything!
I enjoy working out where I can 'save up' my calories so I can 'afford' a treat! A tip - only aim to lose 1lb a week, otherwise it'll tell you you can only consume one apple a day, or something ridiculous like that!
I find this thread a godsend in motivating me to keep going - like a virtual weight watchers! Join us!
I'm weighing in this morning when my parents get here with their super-dooper scales. I've got my fingers crossed. Bets? DH reckons 2.2lb, I think 1.5lb. I've stuck religiously to my allowed 1500 cals this week and am actually allowed 500 more for bfing but haven't used them. And have kept up my running. So whaddya think?
