  • I've had just the opposite results coming off the pill. The last pill I was on (Reclipsen) did not work with me at all. I was incredibly hungry, moody, tired and felt "out of it" most of the time. As I don't have insurance at the moment, I let the RX run out. Since coming off I've lost 20 lbs and feel more in control.…

  • Personally, the birth control I was taking was a BIG reason for why I was so tired all the time. I think the hormone balance was off and besides being chronically tired, I was always hungry. So I ate which, in turn, made me tired blah,blah, blah. I've been off the pill for over a month now and have noticed a definite…

  • You guys are all awesome, for the record. :) SO happy I came across this thread! I'm making an appt with a reproductive endocrinologist soon to get some more in depth answers about this whole PCOS thing. My last gyn put me on Reclipsen birth control and it made me insaaane. Ridiculously hungry, moody, bloated and I gained…

  • It's still a little too difficult for me as well. I'm not quite at mountain climber level. I keep the app though and occasionally do some of the 15 minute celebrity workouts.

  • Hi, all! I'm technically not a mom but my beautiful two-year old niece lives with me and along with her dad (my brother), I'm a full-time caregiver so I understand some of the struggles and joys. I've been trying to lose weight on and off for too long now. And same as you guys said, I always start out so well but stop.…

  • If willpower was so readily available I doubt a lot of us would need MFP. :)

  • Me too! Haven't tried to conceive yet, but went off the pill last year for a little over 6 months and didn't ovulate once, which makes me very afraid. I loved the weight loss results I had off the pill, but went back on because my doctor told me that having "regular" periods would help with regulating my cycle aaaand I…

  • I'd like to join as well! I started out at 260 last year, lost 30 lbs and am, shamefully, back up again. I definitely need motivation from people who are struggling where I'm struggling. I just started tracking my food again recently and started the 30-day shred today in the hopes of seeing some big changes by my 30th…

  • You have nothing to freak out about. And the little things you think you see, I GUARANTEE no one else sees them! You look beautiful in that dress. Go out, have fun and enjoy your night. If I could take back all the times I stayed home because I was worried about how I looked, I definitely would. Life's too short! Have FUN!…
