Does anyone want to participate in a motivational TTC diet/workout thread?
I need motivation. I am not eating much, but I need help.
I thought that a thread with ideas, encouragement, even recipes might help...what do you think?

Re: Does anyone want to participate in a motivational TTC diet/workout thread?
count me in too!
i was watching the biggest loser this morning and wanted so badly to start a new workout regimen and work out my abs, but it seemed like a moot point if it was only going to be ballooning out soon (hopefully! ).
but i'm all in for a healthy new start!

I was thinking that at one point, but on the flipside, the more we lose now, the less we have to lose post-partum!

Okay, so I think I will allow myself not to be so great today due to the intense pain I am in from my flare.
Tomorrow-I will be starting to walk with my work buddy again. If I am feeling better tomorrow, I might try some jazzercise. And I am bringing lunch!
Oatmeal for breakfast tomorrow!

What kinds of snacks do you all bring for work during the day?
I'm a big snacker!
Right now I've got apples, pretzels & laughing cow cheese, carrots & bean dip, and maybe some mini cupcakes just for indulgence 
Also what are your go-to brown bag lunches?

Re: Does anyone want to participate in a motivational TTC diet/workout thread?
If I get a BFN this week I am def. going to start working out again. I've been putting off losing the extra weight that I need to - because of the thought that another baby wouldn't be far behind.
I'm sick of it - and if I have yet another month (or more) before a BFP then I need to start getting my act together!
So - I'll see if I'm joining you on Thursday!

Linda - you quit smoking! That's great news!!! Best of luck
I drank way too much & ate like a COW over the holidays so starting tomorrow I'm cutting out all the sweets, etc and my dh & I are going to start hitting the gym at least 3 times a week. They finally opened a location around the corner from us so there will be no excuses!!!

Re: Does anyone want to participate in a motivational TTC diet/workout thread?
Ok, I'm in 
Today for breakfast I had Honey Bunches of Oats yum
For lunch, I had yogurt, a granola bar, and carrots. (and a miniature size twix........ shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh) 
For dinner, I plan on having lemon sole, with whole wheat pasta, a veggie, and salad.
I was going to go to the gym tonight, but I slept 3 hours last night and taught all day. So, I'm going to go watch Oprah and take a nice nap instead.

ooo that's a good idea, maybe I'll talk to my DH about getting a treadmill  I would like to walk like that in the mornings too but my gym doesn't open early enough. (and I am not an outdoors runner.......)

Re: Does anyone want to participate in a motivational TTC diet/workout thread?
I'm in too! I've been slowly working at taking off weight and I want to work on getting back into healthy habits before I get PG again.
I went for a walk at lunch time today and my plan is to do that every day.
The thing that I mainly need to work on is finding healthy snack options.
