It perhaps depends on where you live and what is available to you? I am a somewhat tall apple shape and I find that I like dresses that accent the boobs and cinch in at the waist and skim the rest. I am from Canada, and there area lot of great options at Torrid, Cleo's or Rickis, Additionelle, Peningtons, Laura Plus etc.…

I agreed with your exercising with the family :) Yeah unfortunately my dr (here in Canada) did not find very low Iron that big of a deal..... Just prescribed me a supplement that is supposed to be very high in iron and easily absorbed and thats it. If anything, was more interested in helping me sleep with pills lol. But I…

Wow very inspiring!!

I am so thankful for all your input and advice/tips. It means the world to me, just to get insight from outside sources. So I guess a little follow up. Unfortunately I have no financial means for a vacation (for 2 weeks etc) or a maid this summer, as most of our funds are going to my schooling at the moment. I cannot take…

Both above, thank you for your time to respond. I appreciate that so much. I agree with wasting time for sure! Now that I'm in my last year of school and basically not enjoying it anymore (3.5 years straight no bresks) I find that I surf the internet or waste time otherwise to avoid doing homework. I didn't want to admit…

Thanks everyone for the great suggestions!! I really do appreciate it. Having low iron is the pits for sure, but I am working on that with diet and supplement since my Dr. says it seems like it may be more of an absorption issue? I actually do meal plan every Sunday as well. It feels very time consuming, but like said…

Frozen banana and berries, unsweetened almond milk, and unsweetened vanilla whey protein. Or unsweetened almond milk, 1 frozen banana, 1-2 tbsp natural nut butter and chocolate vegan protein and greens protein powder. These two are for breakfast usually so they are around 400 cals. If I want a dessert type smoothie I go…

I am so glad I found this thread, my hubby was calling me nuts lol. I was just saying last week how I thought that Oatmeal was supposed to "stick to your ribs"? After eating it with fruit, nuts etc. I become starving like 1-2 hours later. I end up over eating at lunch or on snacks. You would think that the fiber from the…

Assuming you are eating a sensible diet during the day, you are hydrated and working out moderately, this sounds like a slight binge eating disorder. I have been exactly where you are and I have overcome this. Now I am still overweight (for other reasons, but getting a hold of that now:). So if you are eating healthy in…

I also have PCOS / insulin resistance. So I know all about that, carbs etc. I don't think that a lower carb diet is necessarily going to help for the long run, but switching to healthier carbs with fiber and or protein is beneficial. Like the others said above, drinking shakes is not sustainable, which is also why you said…

I'm in Canada. But Wal-Mart has a vegan protein and greens powder by vegan pure. Chocolate is very good with a little natural peanut butter. I like it way better than Vega (Vega is gross to me) and it's half the price. Love the stuff

Walmart has a brand called vegan pure protein and greens. Still a little chalky but way better tasting than Vega. Vega is so gross lol. It's like 20 bucks cdn. So cheap to try but I love it and feel good taking it.
