| Hi -
I will be giving birth to my second child any day now, and I'm anxious to start breastfeeding, and losing weight (yes, BF takes priority). How can I do both without sabotaging either? My goal is to lose 52 pounds in 52 weeks. My plan is to spend 1 or two weeks eating normally and writing down everything I eat and knock out 500 calories from my daily average. That way, I figure I'll get enough calories to keep my milk while losing weight. I'll let you know if it works! |

| I resolve to lose 7 pounds before my wedding at the end of the month (!) and to lose 5 more by my birthday in February.
I also resolve to lose some of my new husband's excess weight by subversively cooking healthy meals most of the time and luring him into shared activity. |

| When I want fast food, and nothing else will do, I get a kid's meal. Look on the internet at fast food websites - many kids meals (e.g. Hamburger Happy Meal) are right around 500 calories, fries and all. (Interesting factoid: what we consider a kid's meal was a full size meal serving in the '50s!) Chow down (but only every once in a while - they're still not very healthy). | |||

| A calorie (technically one Kilocalorie) is the energy required to raise the temperature of 1 liter of water by 1 degree centigrade. Depending on what you weigh, you could burn 50 calories, more or less, by walking a mile. | |||
