Yellow squash and zucchini are a favorite in our house too. We usually use Weber Garlic and Herb seasoning or just garlic powder and pepper.

Sounds amazing! Can't wait to try this!

My fav is salmon cooked on a cedar plank or marinated in a low sodium soy sauce and brown sugar marinade.

Hello, I am in the same boat. We were I got pregnant with each transfer but miscarried at or before 6 weeks each time. My doctor felt my weight could be a factor in my miscarriages. We are preparing for another stim cycle and retrieval but won't transfer until I lose at least 40 lbs. My only advice is to remember why you…

Hi! We have similar stories. We did our first ivf last July. We ended up with 5 great quality embryos so we transferred 2 but I miscarried a 5 weeks. We had 3 embryos left so we decided to transfer 2 again. I miscarried at 6 weeks and our last embryo didn't survive the thaw. My doctor felt my weight could be a big reason…

Sounds delicious! Dinner tonight.

I love Jillian Michaels! Most of her video's have a beginners modification. I started with her while living a sedentary lifestyle and had to stop for a break a lot but after a few days it got easier, not easy, but easier. I have lost 40 lbs so far and owe a lot of it to her video's.

A lot of women with pcos are also insulin resistant. Metformin helps to regulate it. It is prescribe by most doctors to a lot of patients with pcos.

So glad you posted this. I will be doing IVF in April or May of next year. I am trying to lose as much as I safely and healthily can. Feel free to add me. I could use the support and would love to help support others in this journey.

Okay, good cause I told her to order my current size. I was freaking out over the what if's! What if is too big? What if it is too small?

Mine worked great, it blended ice and frozen fruit so smooth. Unfortunately after a month on daily used the motor burned up. I loved it but wish it was better quality.

I lost my first 20 lbs playing Just Dance and Biggest loser. I lived a pretty sedentary lifestyle so really anything that got me moving helped.

Hi! Losing weight to try and start a family was why I joined MFP.. My husband and I already have fertility issues without my extra weight. Last year I had 4 iui's and they all failed. My fertility dr showed me a chart of how drastically lower my chances of conceiving would be with all this extra weight. During the spring…

I hate oatmeal but this sounds amazing. I think I might actually try it.

These sound delicious!

Yum! Where do you find the cake flavoring and bavarian cream extract? This sounds amazing!

I opened my diary.

I have been on MFP since January but didn't start using it until May. Since then I have been regularly logging and losing at the same pace. I only drink water and lots of it so I don't log it but if I do drink something other than water I add those calories in. I don't think I have really changed anything in my diet or…

Thanks for the heads up. I have been staying at each level for about 2 weeks so I have another week before I have to face level 4.

What do think of level 4? I hate level 3 and can not wait to move on.

I spent 2 weeks on level 2 but I was not prepared for level 3. Today was my first day and I had to take so many breaks. Hopefully tomorrow will be better.

I am getting ready to start week 3. I hated week 2 at first but now I like and kind of like it and don't want to move on just yet.

Wow, all you guys look amazing! I will be showing this to my hubby when he gets home tonight. Thanks for sharing.

I tried week 2 for the first time today. I think a lot of the moves were to hard or I am not coordinated enough for some of them. I made it all the way through but I didn't feel like I got a good work out. I struggled too much trying to get the moves right. I ended up doing week 2 then doing week 1 just so I felt like I…

I buy a piece of clothing that I love and cannot wait to wear that is a size or two too small. When I lose enough weight I get to wear my new clothes and feel great!

I has been hard but like you said, "we must finish this and we can finish this". I will keep at. I will finish it, but man my arms hurt. I feel like I need to take a rest day after 2 days. On the third day my arms are so tired I can only do 2 or 3 modified push ups before I have to rest for a second or two. I think I will…

I love women's health. I also used to love self and shape but I have notice lately it doesn't take me very long to look through them. Not as interesting to read.

Thank you Bopper!

Hi fee698! So sorry to hear of your losses, I can't even imagine your pain. I am in a similar situation as you. I was diagnosed with pcos in 2007 after tcc for 2 years with no luck. Since that time I have had 4 iui's with no pregnancies. I am hoping to do IVF in the spring of next year, when I lose more weight. I am…

I love the healthy choice turkey and sweet potatoes in a honey glaze steamer. I eat it almost everyday. I have yet to find a good lean cuisine meal.
