Good luck to JillAly who is now TTC#2! Best wishes!!!
I renewed our SparkPeople.com web site "Team Fluffy Mamas", so if you need extra support, sign-up there.
I discovered a sister site to SparkPeople called www.BabyFit.com. I signed-up there, but that site doesn't have groups. So, if you want some extra pregnancy support, go there and sign yourself up!

QOTW (Question of the Week):
QOTW: Most delicious recipe you've tried yourself, and LOVE!
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
If you checked-in at last week's check-in, I placed a 
next to your name. That's how you'll know if you checked-in or not. If we didn't hear from you last week, or ever, then there won't be any face next to your name. (I changed this b/c it was too hard to update everyone's info with a bazillion googley eyes staring at me! LOL!) Don't be afraid to update us, ladies! We're here for you!!!
Some of you have goal dates creeping up on you... please let me know what you would like for me to do with your stats. I'm happy to adjust them as you see fit. Good luck!!!
You can be a pregnant FM as well. We can keep track of our progress through Mamahood by still eating healthy and exercising as we should. If any of you are pregnant and want to check-in with us, please let me know!
Good luck this week, ladies! You can do it!!!
Here is the format for our weekly check-ins. I hope this makes it a little interesting for everyone...
1) Please reply with how much you lost this week and how you did it? I will update the list periodically throughout the week. If you also want to post your total weight lost, that would help me out, too! 
2) Please share with us any tips you have on low cal/fat snack foods you have come across, delicious healthy recipes, fun fat-burning activites (hiking, toddler aerobics DVDs, etc.) that may help others to reach their goals, etc. We love to hear them!
3) Have fun with this!! We are here to motivate one another, not stress each other out. Words of encouragement are always welcome!!
*For those who are interested, I thought it might be a good idea to put a weight loss ticker in our siggies. You can get one for free at www.TickerFactory.com. I just think it's a great way to constantly be reminded of how far you've come (for some of us) and/or how far we have to go (for the rest of us
).
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Sooooo, we've got 34 FM members, 4 Pregnant members and 3 FM Graduates!!! Yeah!!
The list below should be updated. If your info appears incorrectly, or if you want to join us in our weight-loss journey, please reply and let us know! Anyone is welcome!
I was able to create Team Fluffy Mamas on www.sparkpeople.com! If you'd like to join us there as well, you can just search for our team and "join". They send you free encouraging emails with great tips for weight loss!

Re: :::Monday Fluffy Mama Check-In::: (Updated 9/21)
Well, needless to say, my appetite is back (
). Yeah, I gained like 4 lbs this week, or so, so I am still -1 lb for this pregnancy. Just hope it slows down and my cooking comes to a crashing halt! I've been on a mad rampage of cooking this week and have enjoyed it a little too much, shall we say? LOL.
QOTW: My new fav recipe is country pork ribs with sauerkraut and buttermilk mashed potatoes. Super easy and mmmm! If anyone wants it, I'm happy to post it.
I'm down 4.5 lbs this week - hopefully I can behave myself for the rest of the week...
I couldn't find the group on sparkpeople - can someone help me out with that one?
I just tried a super yummy (Weight Watchers) soup recipe Ginger Scented Apple Squash soup... really good
Another question - where do you look to see if you've received a private message on the nest?
Well, I didn't hit the 90 by Sept 1, but I hit 80 by then. I'm down 85 now. My new goal is to hit my BIG goal of 160 lbs (I have 10 to go) by Halloween.
Most delicious, healthy recipe is this: (I LOVE Asian salads)
https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ellie-krieger/chinese-chicken-salad-recipe/index.html
I haven't weighed this week. I was out of town most of last week so I'm sure I probably gained something. I'm starting to feel a bit nauseated so, if m/s kicks in, I'll probably start to lose.
You can add my EDD. Off of LMP it is 5/18/10 but I suspect that it will change after a u/s since I generally O late.
i am down 2.5 lbs this week.
and this recipe is yummy!!

Hi there: Okay, our Team Fluffy Mamas account was closed since I hadn't logged-in in a while
. So, I started it again "Team Fluffy Mamas", and I sent you an invite.
As for a PM, the side bar on the left of the bump contains the different message boards. Toward the bottom, you'll see "my boards". Right under that, click on "check private messages". GL!
I fell off the wagon in a big way for 5 weeks. Probably gained a couple of pounds. Wah.
But I'm back with a vengeance. Super motivated and it's been really EASY. Hooray!
What I'm doing? WW online and the No S 'diet'. No S is the best thing ever. I've never met anyone who hasn't effortlessly lost 8 pounds the first month.
i have been a Fluffy Mama reject. I think I started with this like back in May??? And I have done nothing since. It is just one more thing to have to think about.
Can I have a 5 pound goal by the end of the year? I know how pathetic that sounds, but at least it is achieveable!
hello, I would like to take my name off of the fluffy mama list. I'm still losing weight since I'm in yet another wedding but I always forget to check in here. Good luck to everyone!
i lost .5 pounds this week!! better than nothing right? I stepped up my exercise though, so hopefully a full pound this week.
I definitly will not be loosing 9.5 pounds in 2 weeks!!
On a side note, I only have 5 more pills to take, and then we start TTC!! AWWWWWW
