So I logged on and within just a few moments the sail began to move. I realized that without support reaching long term goals are so…

PCOS ? for the ladies
Okay, so my doc says that my rapid weight gain was because I have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome). I was always a super skinny kid, then one day when I was like 22 or 23 years old, I started gaining weight like crazy! I went from never weighing more than 120 lbs to getting up to 190 lbs in a few weeks. Now the weight it…

sweet tooth
I just started this website and I think it is great and I have already lost 2 pounds, but I still find it really hard to satisfy my sweet tooth.

Do you log your gum?
I'm dying to know how picky other people are about logging. I've often considered whether I should be logging stuff like gum. I see that people log their vitamins (they say that in their posts), and it made me think that I chew a lot of gum, but have never logged it. I've also thought about logging the tiniest bits of…

How Long It Took Me To Lose The Weight.....
Cleo….you asked how long it took me to lose the weight. It took about 2 years to lose the weight. I honestly don’t know the exact date I started to lose the weight. I kind of snuck up on it and just did it. I never dwelled on the number of days I had been dieting. I quit smoking the same way. I just laid them down and kept…

My scales...help!
One day I step on the scale and it states. 155 lbs,..ok fine. A few days later I step on the scale and it's 3 lbs lighter. Great! Oh, but wait. I stepped on this morning and it was back at 155! Why is this? Do you think it's simply water weight I was gaining and losing OR a bad scale?
