"new" :)

[Cinnalinna]

Hey,
I have been a silent reader for a while, and finally decided to register.
This forum is very helpful!!!

I am 31 and from Sweden (so I am having some trouble understanding the pounds and cups etc).

I have been a "slim" person my whole life, until I had two kids in less than two years, followed by a post natal depression.

I started dieting in July, my start weight was 86 kilos, I am now at 76 kilos. I need to get down to 65 kilos or less to be as PRE-KIDS hehe.

I am really a lacto-ovo vegetarian but have included fish (and *some* chicken) into my diet, even though its really difficult for me.

/ Thank you.
Vicenta

Re: "new"

Welcome cinnalina!! This forum is very helpful and you can ask any questions if you don't understand some of the measurements we use - I understand what you mean cos I have no clue how heavy a kilo is. Good luck with your diet.

Hi over there is Svea land.
I don't do well with pounds or cups either. Strange things to me.
Well even with your dietary restrictions you've done very well.

HI and congratulations on your loss this far! This conversion chart may help - Convert grams to ounces to grams with our weight conversion charts, it's ounces to grams conversion. If you need pounds to ounces or kilograms to ounces all you have to do is click www.google.com and type in the type of conversion you need. There are 8 ounces in a cup and 16 ounces in a pound if that helps at all.

Hopefully you are geting your minimum pure water in everyday (64oz or 1.8927059 litre). What type of exercise are you doing (I know 2 kids is exercise but I mean other than "mommy exercise")?

Keep up the great work -- here are the recipe site links, hopefully you can find some recipes you can incorporate into your daily meals.

just make sure you use Induction Recipes to begin with.
