Agreed.... SHOE PORN OMG! Lovelovelove those pink and black lace ones in the top right corner. Where is this at?!!! And *drool* over the Loubs!!! Those are gorgeous!

Wow good deal! I'm In Canada, and I went to 3 different fitness stores here in my city. I ended up getting it at the place that had it for the cheapest, which was $155. One place wanted $180!!! Damn near had an accident in my pants over that one!

I have a Polar FT7. Just bought it maybe a month ago. I LOVE IT! ETA: But you should look at what purpose you'll be using it for. If you're an outdoor runner, buy the Garmin Forerunner. My BFF has it and it logs your laps and stuff real easy. I just do cardio like walking, treadmill jogging, or elliptical (in a gym…

Damn right there'd be drinks flying! What a butt-hole! People like that should be strung up on a flag poll and made to have manure thrown at them while people point and laugh. *hug* So sorry one stupid jerk ruined your night. Congrats on your weight loss thus far!!

baby spinach, shredded carrot, walnuts, blue cheese and kraft balsamic vinegar dressing. yum!

I am a LC-er with PCOS and IR as well. Been working with a nutritionist for 6 months and she has me not worrying about calories or fat and focusing on staying in between 90 - 120g of carb a day and making sure I get a lot of protein as well (this number is different for everyone, so I wont even post how many g`s I try to…

I have a Keurig and LOVE the Folgers Vanilla Biscotti! http://www.keurig.com/coffee/vanilla-biscotti-coffee-k-cup-flg

We're paying approx $1.16/litre for gas in Saskatchewan. My husbands SUV usually takes around $100 every week and a half to fill. He went on Sunday down to Montana for a day trip with our friends and was down half a tank and it only cost him $25! Here it would have been $50! And we have an oil refinery in our city. What…

2TBSP water, 1 can pureed pumpkin and 1 box devils food chocolate cake mix. mix together, pour into muffin tins. makes pumpkin brownie muffins. sooo delicious, even my hubby loved it and he is very picky.

I am proud of myself because i have stuck with my new lifestyle for the longest i ever have before, and have lost the most weight I've ever lost before. And because of that, today, I tried on a dress at the same store I tried on a dress in Aug (before I made my changes) and today I was able to put on a sz 16 dress when in…

My vegetarian homemade pizza option Flat Out Wrap (Or a Byblos whole wheat Pita Bread.... depending on how many carbs I have for the day) 2 tbsp Medium Salsa (use as pizza sauce) a few dashes of Franks Red Hot (put to taste... i usually do 6 dashes or more but i love spicy) 2 portions Black Diamond Gouda (shredded) (or 1…

pizza!

279lbs. My starting weight here at MFP beginning of Sept 2011. I'm only 5' 3".

TRUTH! haahaaa My BFF and I were the only ones in the gym one night... Both doing treadmill jogging. I farted thinking it wasn`t too bad... Man.... those machines whip that smell around but good. Smelled like something died. haahaa I nearly fell off the treadmill I was laughing so hard. lol

My tip? If you are insulin resistant, work with your doctor while taking your metformin and keep adjusting the doses until you start losing properly. Also, keep in mind that low carb works best for people with PCOS and insulin resistance. Also cut out as much added sugar as you can. and some people will even go as far as…

Chocolate Peanut Protein Shake made with Unsweetened Chocolate Almond Milk, or (before I started doing low carb... can't justify how many carbs pudding is) Green Grapes with sugar free chocolate pudding. If that wont do the trick, I allow myself a candy or two. But no more treats for the rest of the day.

*gets off butt and goes to kitchen for water*

If I pack my lunch.... spinach salad (baby spinach, blue cheese, walnuts, kraft balsamic vinaigrette) or some other type of salad... and I always pair that with one of the following: Soup (cream mushroom or a vegetable type soup). Frozen dinners like Lean Cuisine or Stouffers (I do low carb, so I stay away from the ones…

If you have issues with your body digesting carbs, or have a medical illness that requires you cut your carbs, I think it's a wonderful diet to go on. That being said, it is extremely hard. I'm on a doctors required low carb diet. I see a nutritionist every 2 weeks. It does work, not gonna lie. But it is very hard because…

Hey there! My initial test was 3 modified pushups. Week 1 Day 1 max was 4, Day 2 max was 6, and Day 3 max was 8!!!!! Sooooooo excited about my level of increase! Still doing modified pushups but hey,it's more than I could do before! Good luck everyone this coming week!

Regina, SK!

I'm in! Starting today (Jan 1st) until April 9th. My legs may not be strong enough to manage to do 100 a day to start, but I am going to do as many as I can to start and work my way up. :)

wow! Keep up the amazing work! You should be proud of yourself!!

7 and a half years ago we were both working for a cleaning company... he had just gotten transferred to my building from another... we became friends because we had similar interests... He told me after about 2 months of hanging out as friends that if we weren't working together, he would totally date me. 3 days later, at…

ipod/iphone app = yes. blackberry app = no. it sucks, IMO. I use the app more than I do online to add my food/exercise. Only thing I use on the computer for is the boards/groups. :)

Love it! Thank you for sharing!
