    Can you Do CD whilst Breast feeding?

    never knew that. was sure i read that once past six months and other source of norishment was in place, then it was fine. good job serena gave up on breastfeeds a week before i started then lol.

    Bouillon

    marigold bullion is very nice.
  130. Misdee

    Can you Do CD whilst Breast feeding?

    i belive but not sure, that if a baby has other source of norishment (ie is weaned onto solids at 6months as well as still breastfeeding) and breastfeeding isnt babies main source of norishment then you can start. can anyone confirm that?
  131. Misdee

    never ever go out without an emergency ration on your person

    took my husband to the hospital today to train new carers. what was meant to be a one hour appointment turned into a 5hour appointment, and a traffic jam on the way home. his ciritical alarms went off, so it hasnt been a good day. i know a lot of you wont know what this all means, but its been...

    Have been told I have to stop

    carry on posting, and keep us updated :)
  133. Misdee

    I don't understand what is going on!

    could be that your muscle weighs more. can you go by dress size and inch loss rather by weight?
  134. Misdee

    Have been told I have to stop

    try and avoid carbs and then restart once the course of anti biotics have finsihed. what ones are they btw?

  142. Misdee

    does weight loss slow generally after the first 2-3 weeks?

    had a great loss today, and would love to continue at this rate, do you think its possible if i stick to it? or a 3-4lb loss a week average? obviously will be very happy to continue to lose at any rate, but a bit quicker would be a bonus :cool:
  143. Misdee

    Why SS if 790 losses are the same?

    in some ways i cant wait to get to 790, but am also dreading eating food again and having to make food choices. i knwo its a small amount of 790 but what if you cant stop yourself eating, the thought scares me. but si a long way off, am only 2 weeks in and got a long way to go till i have to...

  151. Misdee

    Some advice please :)

    dont weigh yourself at different times of day. your weight can vary massively in a few hours, best to weigh fuirst thing in the morning. i dont think you will acheive a 17lb loss as you have little to lose, my CDc estimated i would lose half a stone to a stone in the first week, i lost 10lb...
