I've been put in metformin for pcos and insulin resistance that almost always tags alongside pcos and it's helped me out previously and I've been back on it 17 days now and my period came back. But I've definitely before that have had all the period symptoms before the headaches the backaches the pimples without no period…

Oh i definitely have that issue and always have. I think it will be a life long battle. Food is my go to friend. And when things get tough and emotions get high my instinct is to go indulge. I've overcome this before but failed after working so hard and I've been at square one for many years now. For the past two weeks and…

I've been to my doctors I've also had a son 3 years ago so I've been to the gynos and family doctors many times over the years and I've been diagnosed with pcos, insulin resistance,etc. I've been on medicine for it but i stopped for my own lazy reasons for a couple years now. And it doesn't take much to forget everything…

You and i are the same. Something eventually clicked. It's a mental game. You really have to gear yourself up mentally. It's not all about eating just the right stuff or exercising a lot it's a big mental component especially to people like us who have lived a certain type of way for years if not most of our entire lives.…

You know I'm in the same boat. First time i stepped on it i saw a great loss. 3rd time a 1lb gain and it made my day literally all day miserable. I was even thinking to call it quits. This was a week ago and i haven't stepped on it since. I really want to tho. But I'm terrified. So i think putting it away for now would be…

I have PCOS and havent had my period asside from this one that just came and lasted for almost two weeks in a year and a half. So having my period back is a big relief knowing things are getting handled within my body properly at last.

I may have called it hunger in a hurry. It was most likely not hunger considering i ate enough. It was cravings, TOM, and old habits trying to sneak in.

Thank you ladies every advice was noted and it is much appreciated and believe it or not all your words every single one motivated me to keep going. I thought yesterday when i made this post that i was going to crack and let it be and just go back to square one. I've battled this battle many times ,I've only been…

I want my life back. I want to love me again. Im sick of feeling ugly and fat. That's what's pushing me.

Pasta....sandwiches but the ones smothered in mayo i know ew. Mayo itself...nutella...cake....chocolate. Basically everything that's crap.

I started a month ago...I'd like to be down bout 30-40lbs by august for a wedding but nearing December I'd like to be down a total of at least 60lbs. So far 13 down. Add…

I want one too after I've lost 100lbs+ but hearing how horrible the recovery process is, is making me not want to do it ever. I have never worn a two piece bathing suit in my entire 29 yrs of life and oh how i wish to be in one at least once in my life but unfortunately i know i can't be with my loose tummy skin dangeling…

I asked a somewhat similar question a while back and someone has said that because now I'm eating foods that are not so calorie full ot feels as if I'm eating more than before. Where as before i could eat twice only and have had gone over my calories by a long shot. Also someone else has stated that since I'm new to this…

Once a week for me.
-
I write in a journal and i have notes in my kitchen reminding me why i need to do this. All these things slap me back into realizing why i have started this journey to begin with. Also please please eat enough and try to eat more fibers..more nutritious food. You can have a lot more of it during the day then just killing…

I started at 310 ppl r shocked. They say they'll have me max at 200. I think it's when someone carrys their weight well and it's proportioned all over.
-
I am new to this healthier me about a month in now so i don't quiet trust myself yet so i keep away and allow myself to indulge in something not so good for myself every Saturday. Once i get a grip I'll know I'll have more control and I'll know I won't derail even if i have something i really crave that's not the…

I really try to stick to fruit when that sweet tooth hits me or even sometimes like a nice greek yogurt that's low on cals. I like the oikos brand a lot had it a min ago with some raw fresh mango.
-
I love pop. Who doesnt?!? But im proud to say i haven't touched it since i started this. Except the ginger ale (it was my bday lol). I just know me tho if i drink even the diet version I'll eventually convince myself to have it all the time. I'm bad tho haha! If you got things in control more power to youuu...i wish. Gah!

In total I'd like to lose 110 lbs. But i set mini goals. One example august 27th i have a wedinng to attend that I'd like to fit into a size 18 dress i have im now like a 20...so roughly i want to lose 40lbs by then.
-
You can do it Kathee!!!! I made a list of reasons why i shouldn't open the fridge and stuck that baby on the door because I like you have a very bad relationship with food. I eat when im sad, bored, angry, too excited even. So this was my way of opening my eyes to this behaviour.
-
Hello. We are in the same boat. I'd like to lose a 100lbs as well. Add me if you like. On those bad days it's nice to have someone to relate to and talk to.

I've got 3 boys one of which is my husband lol. Good luck mama....Happy mama = happy family.

Can't tell you how many times i did this. Never give up though because it will eventually click.

There's no magic formula. It's about living a simple life. Eat to fuel your body so you can live is my new motto. A lot of us eat to forget our life and fix emotions...it is a deadly cure. I look at my body like a car. Pump gas so i can take long and fun road trips.

Have you been tested for diabetes?

I'd go see a doctor. Better safe then sorry.

I think what my problem was is that I used to before i started using mfp eat perhaps less in a day but i would eat foods so high in calories and i mean fast food, junk upon junk, pop , sweets that I'd rack up over 3000cals if not more in a day with just 2 meals and everything inbetween I'd consume. Now though i eat 3 times…
