There are lots of African / Nigerian mums with more than just two kids. So there has to be some sort of relevant pics that these mums can relate to.

No it wasn't difficult.

My challenge would be to keep it up.

Herzumpther:


I wanted to know that was why I threw the question open to everybody. There is no oversabi here ma'am.

EfemenaXY:
Been meaning to respond to this.

Yep, you're on the right path. Minus the ketchup.

Here's an extract I got. Can't post the link because I don't want the spambot to get me today.

Just one tablespoon of commercially prepared ketchup typically contains four grams of sugar. And many people consume much more than one tablespoon at a time, which quickly builds up your daily sugar load. Like ketchup, sugar (especially HFCS) is added to nearly all processed foods, along with a lot of sodium and other flavor enhancers, and it doesn’t take too long to exceed your maximum daily fructose limit (25 grams or less).

It's a lot better if you make it yourself, rather than buy the heavily processed ones where the tomatoes used have been over cooked.

EfemenaXY:
I've got to agree with you on this.

There was a program on tv a few weeks ago about how bad processed sugar really can be for us as per the energy contained in it and its sugar consumers not burning up all that excess energy.

Didn't watch the whole program to the end, but there was a bit where sugar was extracted from the Sugar Cane plant, stripped of all its fibres, etc. This sugar was then refined to the pure sugar we get sold to / use for our coffees, teas, desserts, etc. Anyway a little teaspoon of this sugar was sucked into a tube and then blown out at the other end onto a small fire...

The transformation was something else. It was like a mini explosion! And to think all that energy from just one miserly teaspoon of sugar? Then when you stop to think about the amount of pure sugar that goes into your average muffins, chocolates, fizzy drinks...??

Ah! You'll almost swear not to touch that stuff. So yes, sugar from fruits is a lot, lot better than what you get from processed fruit drinks / fizzy drinks / pop. But even then, one's still got to go easy on the fruits. Spread them out and not too much at once.

moca:
Babe, not now.
I eat anything I can for now.
I mean after delivery cos I tend to shot up real fast after giving birth.
I want to be mentally prepared and guided too.

I'm an advocate of good food and healthy living.

Thanks dear.

moca:
@BABE3, come and recommend a fitting exercise for me.

I can't and will never do anything that will stress my neck, especially back neck.
I don't know how to do push up.

I want to avoid it if I can.
Babe3,where r u?

My mummy told me I will add o but I never believed her cos I was like Sanusi.

And I seriously want to burn torns of fat.

edwife:
Well i read differently from this expert: "Despite the popularity of smoothies, there’s surprisingly little research about the effects of smoothie fruit on the body versus whole fruit. But Robert Lustig, MD, professor of pediatrics at University of California, San Francisco, and author of Fat Chance: The Bitter Truth About Sugar, thinks smoothies are a no-no. “The blades destroy the insoluble fiber, which means that the ‘gel’ that forms on the inside of the intestine has no structure,” he says. “The sugar is absorbed at a maximal rate, overwhelming the liver’s capacity to metabolize the sugar, and the excess sugar is turned into liver fat which is the precursor to metabolic syndrome.”

There is a difference between whole fruits and smoothies.
"There is research to show that if you take exactly the same energy as a liquid instead of a solid, you will consume more calories later because the liquefied energy doesn't satisfy your appetite as well as the solid food. In addition, you may be changing the rate and effect of nutrient digestion in important ways. We know that for some food, like rice, if you mechanically turn it into a slurry prior to consuming it, your body reacts with a significantly sharper and faster spike in blood sugar"

edwife:
chillisauce you reckon what i told you? CARDIO! You can never go wrong with that girl,never.

I actually build my abs by staying active most of the time.Around my house i always have one or two things to do ,i don't wait for anyone to clean when i can use it for my benefit.Movements of muscle is very important,i hate being lazy!

That's why after a long day out or inside the house,i relax with a nice movie ....

edwife:
I saw smoothies

edwife:
The best way for me to have my fruits intake is by taking them as a whole. A banana and an orange or pears with cherries etc.....

edwife:
every good chef on TV always use butter for their meals,always!
.

Chillisauce:
Seriously I just watched the beginning of the video. She mentioned 6packs but i don't see any six packs on her. My stomach is almost same as hers no wayo here.

How can I get the packs ? You know like the one of footballers. Do you do anything special for the packs to come out.
Edwife. . Babe3. Anyone ?

Let me see if I will see videos on that. Hubby insisted on weight lift and push up. But my hands will be too muscular after that

Chillisauce:
Not all vegetarians. Those ones that don't eat even fish. Those very, strict ones. I nice they fall ill, they normally find from their blood samples some essential requirement not enough in the blood.

I prefer the mild vegetarians. But I love meat sha
