Hi my name is Tiya and I new to the group

I am 33 years old with three kids, 2 boys ages 11 and 5 and then a 15 month
girl. So I am trying to get back to my prebaby weight before I had all my kids.
I am 5'6 and I weigh about 194. I want to get down to 150-160 by November 2009.

I eat 5 mini meals a day, that is eating breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner,
I don't eat after 7:30 pm. This month I really started to add more protein to my
diet, such as nuts and fish. I drink about 80 oz water and 16 oz of tea
everyday. I workout 5-6 days a week during Taebo, or on my orbitrek for one
hour.

I haven't weighed myself for the past couple of weeks, I am shrinking because I
can tell by the way my clothes are fitting me. I used to way myself daily but I
was going nuts I rather weigh myself once a month, and I figure as long as I am
losing inches, that is more important. I want to get size 8-10. Right now I am
14.

have actually lost six pounds! the thing with losing weight is portion control
and what you put in your mouth. i try and stick to wheat foods brown rices and
no red meat. instead of hamburger i use ground turkey. also fruit and vegetables
are the key. if i have a sweet tooth (which happens often) i eat a small bowl of
low-fat yogurt and grape-nuts. i bake a lot of chicken and keep the soda to a
glass a week...i hard..we just dont buy it when we go shopping. i hope this
helps. also kraft.com has good healthy meal plans
