Thanks ma'am...

mitchyy:
Sorry everyone! Had my hands full. I can see my gang enkaydewdrop and fortius are back

Let me read back...

Ezigbo gang.. .

Omojudy:

You left me out

No naaaaa...

How u doing ma'am.. .?

sugah:
Enkaydewdrop its advised to always wear running shoes when exercising.

I definitely need these tips. Especially for CS mamas.

No mind me oh... I just hate them...
As per Bush geh concerned...

ozycy:

Do you use thread mill for the 3km walk? I no get, so I have to walk round the estate and sometimes I no dey get strength especially in the morning.

No oh... I don't use a treadmill. I don't even use running shoes most of the time.
You'll only need your phone/laptop whenever you want to do it. You follow the lady's instructions and do whatever she does.
It's basically walking on the spot and moving around your room sometimes, but to the rhythm of a background music, which changes tempo from time to time... While walking on the spot/around the room, she includes arm raises, leg raises, knee lifts, side steps and some other exercises (dunno their names)... That way, you burn extra calories...
While at it, you're basically doing brisk walking with added exercises...
Before you know what's happening, you've done 3 miles.. . It lasts about 42 minutes and is very easy...
It may be a bit difficult for the first one or two weeks, but it becomes very very easy after that...

Just check walk your belly flat (3 mile walk) with Leslie Sansone on YouTube...
It'll be better if you download it, instead of streaming it everytime you want to use it...

Before... (Nov 2014)
After... (August 2015)
Another After... (September 2015)

Couldn't get more decent pics...

enque:
Ok...What brand of the electric pump do u use?

Lansinoh double electric...


Fearless07, thank God.. . We're in this together sis...

enque:
Thanks a lot.

Sis, sabi mamas have answered you...
I use an electric pump and It has never shocked me...
The bottle and the part that attaches to my areola are plastic.. . Infact, the whole thing is plastic and it's very very convenient...

Weightloss tips...

Here's what I did before I got married /pregnant...
I guess it should work again (I've started doing some of it, and it's working already )...


1....I couldn't do all the fruit /juice fast thingy.. . I would be very very hungry after like one or two hours, besides, I have ulcer and I would only just loose water weight; which would pile back on after the fast...

Instead of doing a juice fast, I watched what I ate, controlled my portions and ate more frequently; say 5-6 very small meals a day... (weightloss is 80% what you eat and 20% exercise).. .
Ate rice and lots of veggies, (instead of rice and just stew), Yam and veggies, lots of fruits, little rice and plenty beans, chicken without the skin, noodles occasionally, no red or fried meat, snacks and sugar... But most importantly, I had them in small portions...
(my cousins had eba and egusi soup for dinner last night, but I no try am... right now, I'm having small rice and lots of salad for lunch)...

2....I stopped eating from 6pm, latest, 7pm... If I got very hungry after 6/7pm, I snacked on fruits... Even during the day too...

3....I also reduced eating Swallows to once in like 2 weeks and stopped having them for dinner...

4....I made sure to exercise at least four times a week... I don't have strength for all those strong strong exercises, I came across an exercise dvd in 2011, and decided to use it...
Just check you tube for it, it helped me a whoooole lot...
"walk your belly flat" by/with Leslie Sansone.. .
There's the 3 mile walk, 4 mile walk, 5mile walk, e.t.c...
I found it very very easy to follow... You can do it at your convenience (but preferably in the morning) , and in your own room; you do not need a gym...
I used the 3 mile walk...
(haven't started exercising yet, I never get the power... Lemme start with food first and see how it goes)...


5...Before I started my weightloss journey, I checked my weight and took measurements of my arms, bust, underbust, wrists, waist (belly button part), waist (below the belly), hips, thighs; penned them down in my jotter, along with the date I took the measurements...
Thank God I did this, because after a while, my scale stopped moving. I kept eating clean and exercising, yet my weight wasn't changing, but when I checked my measurements, they were actually changing...
I was losing fat, and replacing it with muscle...
I took my measurements and weight every two weeks, to know if and how much progress I was making...

So, check your weight from time to time, but don't rely on your scale. Instead, focus on your measurements.
You'll feel inspired to do more when you see the results.. . And take lots of pictures too.. .


6...I drank a loooooot of water... Especially after exercising... It helps with metabolism.

If I remember anything again, I'll modify and quote...

Lemme check if I'll see a before and after picture to post...


Sorry for my long post...

Liftedhands:
kikikikikikikikiki make I laugh you small I remember when I said you should enjoy your last days of independence cos once baby arrives you can never be you again. Sorry it's the price of motherhood has tiresome as it is you wouldn't want to trade the experience for anything in this world.

Mama, you were sooooo right....
All the while I was growing up, my mum begged me to nap every afternoon... Now I'm grown, I can pay any amount of money to get a nap...
But like you said, I wouldn't trade this experience for anything in the world...

How is our Ekene?

Redoil:
trouble maker i hope you have eating this morning for i can see the effect of change over your post. nkechi i know you

1...its eaten, not eating...
2...my name is not nkechi...

See why I said you don't have sense?

Don't even bring your rubbish to my side...
DON'T!!!

Idiot... (mamas, please, pardon my French) ...

Redoil, I found your response to ma'ams ozycy and ahnie very rude and unnecessary...
These are MARRIED women and RESPONSIBLE mothers...
No iota of respect at all?

I won't even bother spamming your moniker, cos I see you're enjoying it.
Why won't you? When it's obvious you don't have sense...

You have a brain, and its not for decoration...
Please, use it...

I got one a month ago at 16 weeks, went to the clinic yesterday and no-one mentioned it. Biko don't read and pass.

Hi mama... please, don't wait for your next visit (which is likely 4 weeks from now) to get the next shot, cos you're already due for it...
You should go back as soon as you can, and get it... It's very important...

Ma'am Zaynie, are we not doing "something" Friday today? I've forgotten what you call it... The sun of yesterday still dey affect my brain head...

ozycy:

Am so pissed with all the talkatives here

rofemiguwa:


Barrier method.basically condoms ,diaphragm, iucd.all dou i won't advise iucd becos ur endometrium where it will stay is already under pressure by d fibroid. So it might easily get displaced. Talk to ur doctor sha or midwife but insist on non hormonal method.or u can be local like me download ovulation timer app.monitor ur cycle.use condoms plus uda water on fertile days if u must get down. Then enjoy ursef raw on free days. That's how we do ours.hehehehehe.

Thanks maam...
But I heard the "safe period" method isn't 100% safe... Make I no go enter one chance oh
By the way, have you tried the uda water?
Does it work?

Thanks mitchyy...
Jay is fine...
How's Bobo H?


Congrats nneka3000... More testimonies on the way...
