@all
I suggest d exercise to be done shd be given a day before. The one for friday shd hv been said before now, so that we do it in d morning if we hv time, me I may not log in again till tomorrow, maybe while on my way to work

@udoka. LWKMD!!!! As in! I first try am without bra, no one told me to go and regularise my chest!

Its really taxing! I was breathing like a pig!

I never still finish till now!

Meanwyl I neva see MSTIA brake lights! If she doesn't come on, would u swap with her?

Meanwhile I don talk am b4 say if them tell me say if I chop grass, bfp go show face, I go born healthy baby and everythin go dey fine, naim be say I'll head to the nearest field!
Today I bought Olive Oil for cooking!
Infact the smell of new born baby was strong in my nostrils when I opened the bottle(my baby is coming !)
Finally I believe that Olive oil is healthy! If for no other reason,then the fact that it fried my sausage very very 'politely' is reason enuf for me!
No noise, no splash, just healthy looking fried sausage. When I convinced myself to take a bite, I noticed that the sausage had a nice texture!
Lol!Maybe its all in my mind.......

But any one who hasn't tried it should do so for a healthy, guiltfree cooking!

@RocksQueen,Thanx o..finally i av a ''wanna add weight'' partner! yipee *excited* thnx 4d info~and yea,luvly nostrils u'v got o..kyp smellng d new born babies 'cos the twins are knockng ur door already..al d best wt dt ya Olive oil..lol

Ladies, I culdnt do that jumping jack oo, today is my off day arm exercise. I've been doin intensive cardio and toning exercise everyday for the past 7days and I was told it's not healthy. So I decided to skip a day.

Ladies, pls can someone tel me how long the fasting is for.

My log

My Log

Beakfast : Moimoi & 2slice of wheat bread

Lunch: .......Water

Dinner : Moimoi and 4 table spoon of garri

Am interested in the fasting what time please, am on medication. so i would like to adjust if 12.Noon is okay?

Rocksqueen, I dey ooo, just that I got home very late yesterday.
I quite agree with what Udoka said,

So maybe we will complete the jumping jack today while my own will be for tomorrow(just a suggestion subject to criticism)

The exercise will be for 30mins to 45mins depends on how your strength can go.
Jogging on the spot, after a count of 100, you rest for 30secs (during which you will just be marchin) after then count another 100, then take the 30secs rest while marching. Stop after 30 or 45mins. At the end of that, lie flat on the floor and begin to meditate concerning your BFP, see yourself being pregnant, see urself having a cute baby, holding and kissing your baby. This is to help you relax your nerves. This can be repeated in the evening before we go to bed.

God bless y'all, I will log in my meals later today. Our efforts will never be in vain.

NB, pls be careful, not to be too hard on yourself while exercising. We will NEVER loose

Nite. Banana

Exercise. 15minutes walk. 60 jumping jack
@MTSIA. Na u challenge me to try this new height ooo. It means we can get to 300. But I stopped in btw to catch my breathe, hope e no matter,

For one to avoid weight gain one should avoid taking backed foods made with white floor,soft drinks,foods rich in carbohydrate,fatty and oily foods.A 45 minute exercise, at least, four times a week will do you a lot of good.Also, try to find the amount of calories contained in every quantity of food you take. This measure will help you know the number of times you need to perform your weekly exercises so as to keep every unit of calories in check before it wrecks havoc in/on your body.
Take enough fruits and vegetables on daily basis.
Finally,take lots of water.

Sorry had to attend to something!
How are we holding up?
"I am wonderfully and fearfully made by God!He will give me my heart's desire IJN..Amen"!

But wait o! I no know whether na because I dey fast wey make me dey perceive people mouth odor throughout today!

I am talking about it cos I know that when people do not eat, their oral cavity may begin to give off an offensive odour. This is as a result of the emission of gases from the stomach. Then even if u brushed that morning.

Inorder for people not to seize their breath or shift back when we're talking, let's try and ensure that we do sumtin to reduce the MO

Please y'all, how do u handle the MO dat comes from not eating early? I have a secret solution I use if anyone is interested!

Exercise: 120 Jumping Jacks intervals of 60 each! This jumping jack na witch! My calves are screaming! Na udoka and mstia dey make me wanna burst my target!
@udoka, abegi e no matter!so far u got ur heart pumping with each try!

@seanbell, we missing you seriously. Hope all is going well with you. wishing you success in your exams.

Rocksqueen
U really enjoyed urself in d name of cheating ooo. Takem am easy b4 u add. I thinK we shd all comment on each others meal and raise alarm where necesary - don't think anybdy here can flog like seanbell. BTW gv me d tip on preventing MO while fasting.
Better get into action oo which one be say no time, what about early in d morning or at nite after dinner when u are relaxing to watch TV, from watching TV get into action right there in d parlour-unless u hv pple living with u shaa. All d same create time, Holy Spirit can't do that for us. Wishing u a successful laproscopy on tuesday.
So God's waiting Room now has part 2, I wish to read it, was blessed reading part 1, bn lookn for the part one donot know who I gave it.
I buy my tiger nuts from mallams..I hv one around my area, precisely in front of yabatech.
MSTIA
LoLllll don't think we wll drop weight by consistently stopping and catching breathe, anyway just to keep d heart pumping well

@all
I checked today unfortunately didn't drop anything still at 87kg, now I know loosing weight is not EASY! Am gud that I now eat healthy to balance my hormones naturally. In TTC thread it was said that food rich in zinc and B6 naturally lower prolactin, I hv also researched that they also increase progesterone, keep eating ur banana, avocado, watermelon etc

@udoka. Thanks for the advise. This new week, no more carbs! And that's a good suggestion to let others comment on our posts!
I have plateau'ed when dieting. Its not funny! Portion control and calorie counting is better but not so easy to sustain.

For the MO:
Get hydrogen peroxide, brush and force it through your teeth morning and night. Make sure u do the nyt one,if u forget,u can do it whenever u wake up within the night.

In the morning, do it again,force the solution gently between the cracks of ur teeth(gently or it would foam and defeat the purpose)!

Geminilove: Hello Ladies,

My best friend and I have been on healthy eating plan for last 7 weeks, she going on her second course of IVF. I wanted to offer you some tools to increase your success on weight loss.

I would suggest you all register for myfitnesspal.com, it is a free website which you can log all the food you eat and exercise. It also works how much calories you should eat a day, there an app for your phone as well. It has Nigerian food registered on the site.

I lost 14lbs (a stone) and she lost bit more. It doesn’t matter what time you eat rather what you eat. You can eat naija food but change how you cook. If i have to use oil, i use olive oil. Eat Breakfast, I blend 2 banana, ginger with fresh squeeze pineapple juice, lunch 250 gram of moi moi( i make this with just the beans, blended tomatoes, pepper, onion, egg white, maggi and dry shrimp and no oil) and with steamed vegetables or roasted plantain with vegetables. I have two snacks a bowl of fruit or raisins.
Drink a minimum of 8 glasses of water, if you find it difficult to drink water squeeze some lemon or lime into the glass.

. @ Geminilove: Thanks, I downlaoded the app and have been using it daily, I'm so loving it, have been using sparkpeople for weeks now but this myfitnesspal is much easier. Happy Sunday to u all n plenty of baby dust

DAY 14

Lunch. Small rice with lots of steamed vegetable and one avocado pear, one mango
