No but I need to eat at more consistent times. The times I eat are all over the place because of the kids.

Not now that I am pregnant but I need to figure out what I am going to do after this baby comes. I feel like I'll need to get on it just about right away or else the weight/flab is just going to stick around.

@kokobee: it all depends... if you are consuming mostly fruits and veggies your caloric intake will be less... you have to be sure that it's the quality of the calories, not the calories themselves. I know someone who dieted on McD's and kept their caloric intake less than 1500 - but none of us would say that's healthy... even though their calories were low. If you are eating avocados, salmon, etc all things high in calories but RICH in nutrients- then it all evens out.

I'm not on a diet... but I eat pretty healthy. I prefer lifestyle changes rather than dieting.

BUT when I wean from BF'ing I want to do a juice cleanse!

Yep! I decided at the end of last year that if I wanted to get pregnant, I should shed some weight. So far, 25 pounds! I lose weight REALLY slowly, but that's mostly because I haven't cut anything out. All I've done is keep track of what I'm eating and go walking/lift light weights every day.

I'm actually pretty happy with my progress, even though it'd be nice to have lost it faster! I think I can keep it off better this way!

Not dieting, but tracking calories and exercise on My Fitness Pal. Just helps me be more mindful of what I'm eating.

You betcha! I have another 20 pounds to go to get to pre-baby weight. I am eating tons of lean protein and veggies and have pretty much eliminated starches. It's been working well.

I am also at Pre baby weight, but it is still more than I want to be and I am so flabby. I am watching what I eat and next week I am starting couch to 5 k.

I'm doing weight watchers to lose the last bit of baby weight, and the 10 pounds I put on before baby. I was able to get into a pair of prepreg pants today, and zip them up. That has made my day

No, I don't believe in diets because they're temporary and once you're done you go right back to square one. I believe in being healthier and changing your lifestyle.

I am in the pre-diet stage, otherwise known as the thinking about it stage. I bought the GI diet and I want to see if eating low glycemic foods keeps me full longer.

No but I should be watching what I eat a little better. I eat "normally" in my opinion: cereal for breakfast, leftovers for lunch, meat, veggies and starch for dinner.. I also snack a lot during the day but I'm so hungry! I only eat when I'm hungry now, at least. I still have 20lbs of baby fat to go. I gained 46 when I was pregnant. Oooops.

I'm not dieting, I am pregnant, but my glucose test is Monday so I am trying to eat very well this weekend or at least tomorrow

some days i have my eat everything in sight days too!
