    I will not weigh in until the 1st, but I am super excited! I am wearing an outfit today I wore two weeks ago. Last time it was a bit snug. Today, not only does it fit perfectly, it is bordering on loose. Good day!

    Hello, I would like to join in the challenge! How does this work though? What does SW, CW, GW stand for. I'm a newbie! Thanks!

    My goal weight is just my first goal obviously. I handle my goals better if I take it in small bites.

    Having a tough go today.
    Before I read about it in the PCOS for Dummies book, I always thought it was just a problem with me....but knowing that PCOS is what is causing this urge to binge eat on occasion helps me ignore and control it. Now instead of feeling like I have piss poor self control and am a self-sabatager, I understand the urge is actually chemically induced. Lets me feel I am in control of myself again, and helps me know the hunger pains are not really me being hungry, but my out of whack system telling me lies. I will continue to eat as normal and increase my water intake, and give the finger to these lies from my tummy.

    keeping busy helps ignore those hunger grumbles. Also downing a pint of water. I snack on cherry tomatoes as they are sweet and a whole punnet is about 50 calories.
