| Weight Loss | Yep... I'm asking too... Am I eating enough/too much? | Oct 22 2008 18:48 (UTC) |

That sounds low enough to me that you should definitely be loosing. I suggest looking into what you're eating, rather than calorie intake. Something that cal counting leaves out is that high fat intake (even if still within your cal limit) is easier converted into fat store on your body. Whereas higher protein and carb and lower fat takes much longer to store on you.
The other suggestion I have is that possibly your potions aren't as accurate as you think they are? Maybe, if you don't have one, get a digital scale to weigh your food and use it until you learn very well size and portion.
Now if you're already aware of all these things I'm sorry there is no other ideas I have to offer... just keep at it!!! |

| Pregnancy & Parenting | "Baby Fever" - I've got it bad. | Oct 07 2008 18:43 (UTC) |

Wow it's like reading my own story!! I too am 22 and I too have the baby bug! And, guess what? My husband isn't ready either! He loves babies so much and he's the one that gets teary eyed when we see a little one pitter past at the store, but he gulps and goes silent at the thought. He has said that he at least wants to own a house before we get pregnant, but would also love to get me a better car. While i agree that is it rational to wait, these feelings aren't at all rational so it's hard to compare them to anything that is logical, methodical, and rational. I tried to explain to him that me trying to wait to have a baby for a few years is like him holding off on all sex for a few years. He immediately became more sympathetic and has begun to try to get himself more ready. While he works harder I am able to be more logical and patient in the process! That's why I joined calorie-count. I've set myself out to get as ready as possible for when the right time comes for both of us. I'm loosing weight, being more healthy, and saving money. My husband and I together are dropping vices that will be hard to continue with a baby that needs health and nutrition. It's a good way to distract yourself for someday. It's a win/win! However I still avoid the baby section while shopping... :) |
