Whalebb,
I've seen this diet menu before but didn't try it. I looked at the list and have most of the food items at home. I'll buy the rest of the items and try it too!! You have my support!
My daughter is in kindergarten. For bb son, we take him to the babysitter's home in the morning and pick him up after work M - F. Babysitter lives very close to my husband's office.
I've tried that diet menu before a few years ago. I lost about 6 lbs in 3 days. Not bad at all but you have to follow it totally because I tried it another time and cheated so it didn't work. "add oil"....
Meeemeee,
Is it difficult to bring the bb to the sitter in the morning? Does your husband help with caring for the kids?
Totally understand la...I get hungry so easily just from taking care of the bb. Before, I don't eat much rice and now I can eat a big bowl every night...sometimes even want more.
Whalebb,
I didn't know you're nursing your bb;otherwise, I'd have asked u not to try the diet menu. You need to have a balance diet in order to have enough nutrition for your bb. Please try the diet menu after you're done nursing. OK??
We're used to taking bb to the sitter's. It's tough when it's cold and raining. I stayed home for 6 mos. after my 1st child was born. We sent her to babysitter til 2 yrs. old. Then we sent her to bilingual (Mandarin & English) day-care from 2 yrs. old to 2 yrs. & 10 months. She started pre-school at 2 yrs. & 10 months.
I'm the most lucky one among my girlfriends here. My husband is pretty much doing everything. I'm the one who "helps" sometimes!!
I guess most of you must be not too stressful taking care of your babies as you gals are so eaged to lose weight ...
I'm just the opposite ... I'm even 10 lbs lighter than my pre-pregnant weight which makes me a little worried ...
It just happened after my m-i-l back to HK for abt 5 months.
For those moms who've stopped breastfeeding:
Just curious how soon u'll completely lose yr breastmilk after u stopped breastfeeding?
I've stopped breastfeeding for abt 4 months now, but i still hv a little milkly discharge from my nipples when i tried to sqeeze them (just for curiosity). not sure if that's breastmilk or what. is that because i've breastfed for too long (abt 16 months)?
When r u moving to SJ? i live very close to SJSU although i've never got a chance to visit there. maybe we can exchange emails or phone numbers later.
i do drive (and for a quite long time) but i'm not a good driver cos i hv no sense of direction. every time i go to new place, i hv to rely on yahoo map or the navigation system.
Junw,
Thank you for your opinion.
I agree with you. Big fish are not good to babies. Some of them contain mercury, some of them contain 雪卡素毒. The see bass I bought was very small, the whole length(from head to tail) is shortler than a chopstick. It is very tasty. I knew some of sea basses are very big, I will buy them.
WA is OK. However, there is not too many good Chinese restaurant here. We used to drive to Vancouver for good Chinese food before I got pregnant. We haven't been in Vancouver for a long time, as bringing the babies to the trips will be a headache. I still missed those yummy food.
I know there might be snowing somewhere else in WA, but we didn't get too much of snow in my area. I think it was snowing once this year, but it was very light snow, the snow are melting as soon as it hit the ground.
I wishes I can lost weight too. I still got around 20 lbs pregnancy weight to lost, and it is very stubborn and not willing to go away. My husband complains all the time. :cry:
I agree that have well balance food during breastfeeding is very important. Therefore, dieting should be on hold for the breastfeeing mom. I still remember that I ate like a pig when I was still nursing. I was able to eat the whole chicken by myself in one day.
I had breastfeed for about 5 months. I quit it gradually, so the breast milk were stopped very smoothly. They were completely gone after a week I stopped.
About the '走佬袋', it was so interesting that I forgot to bring it with me to the hostipal, even I have spent so much time preparing it. I guess I was nervous when my water broke.
Hi Greentree,
That's good that the small sea bass are sold in your area. It must be very fresh and yummy. We can only found the sliced frozen one in our area. It must be a lot of work removing the bone from the small fish. I guess I am too lazy for that.
Chingbj,
I have a 5 yrs. old girl and a 9.5 mons. old bb boy. That is a Christian school from pre-school to 12 grade. My daughter started pre-school there at 2 yrs. & 10 mons. old.
BB son goes to babysitter M-F. My husband takes care of the kids when I have to work weekend.
It's tough when we have no live in maid. My husband doesn't want one at home. His friends have bad experiences.
Hopefully the first week of Jan,2005 move to SJ, yeah, we can exchange phone no after I move in. I have no sense of direction either, even left or right
CHINGBJ,
EA ASIA個邊地震+海啸,死左好多人,好慘。最慘0個D客死異鄉﹐家人日日擔心唔知點找佢哋。我地做到既唯有幫佢地PRAY﹐或捐D錢。我無食西瓜呀﹐因為我身體一向唔係噤好﹐又寒底。以前食西瓜會魂架哈哈~所以之後唔敢亂食涼野囉。我都想追個女﹐不過要看下阿仔跩唔跩﹐難唔難湊先。小肥佬搬屋﹐佢之前話要兩個禮拜後先可再ONLINE。
Long time no post in BK but I keep watching all your guys' postings....Anyway, wish you all have a GREAT NEW YEAR EVE tonight and a GREAT GREAT 2005!!!
Marble
You are moving to SJ soon...I am so excited and happy as we are so close and our due date are so close. Do you have a baby shower from you co-workers? I had 1 baby shower from my part-time job co-worker. I got some girl's clothing but are too small and so I exchanged them for a bigger size.
Anyway, once you have a phone number in SJ, then we may chat over the phone too......:lol:
Babygigi
