I work out about an hour after breakfast. I'll have a handful of cashews after if I need it. Mostly I wait for lunch.

2 gallons seems like a lot! I've heard that one fluid ounce per pound of body weight is a decent bench mark to strive for. I get right around one gallon.

Good luck!!

Another PCOSer here. Have you looked into any medications and/or supplements? I did a TON of research and started on a good bit of supplements (4 years ago now) and ovulated on my own (within a week of starting), lost 40lbs, and got pregnant within 6 months. Even if getting pregnant isn't your final goal, regulating your…

Depends on what you mean by add/subtracting. I just set MFP to maintain my current weight.

I wore my heart rate monitor for a full day, 16 hours straight, no exercise. Came to 2147 calories. Adding about 300 for breastfeeding a 3 month old, I figured 2000 a day seemed like a good place to start, so I set MFP to that. I walk for an hour 4-5 days a week; I don't eat back all those calories but I will eat some. I…

ooh ooh! I want to join. Monday I walked 5.52km, yesterday was 5.67. Today is my scheduled rest day, but I am going Christmas shopping with my husband tonight.

For me personally, I would journal (not food log) in a notebook. A journal for me is like siphoning off bad emotions. It's to the point now, just writing is very therapeutic. Right now I'm having difficulties staying motivated, and I know it's directly related to the fact that I haven't written in my journal in awhile.

I started working out. I'd walk on a treadmill for a half hour a day, and worked up to an hour. Then increased my incline. After working out for a month, I really started looking at my food and making small changes there. In the past when I'd try to change it all over night I'd get burned out and I couldn't stick to it.

A homemade smoothie with blueberries, strawberries, banana, almond milk, coconut oil, and a scoop of chocolate protein powder.

agreed It's not required to label potassium on food labels. If it's not included on the label, it's not generally on MFP. I search around and find a food that is similar that has the potassium listed. Like I'll log fresh blueberries, because the frozen ones I buy don't have it on the label. (yes, fresh is best, but they…

I love reading all the responses. Thank you. I have discovered that I hate the taste of coconut. Even masking it in smoothies, coffee, or eggs, I just can't get over it. I use it externally for loads of different things, I even do the oil pulling; but to add it to food and swallow, I just can't. I did start freezing it in…

I don't know if it's bad or not, but I love it as well. I mix one tablespoon of ACV, slice up one lemon, mince some mint leaves, add it all in a pitcher and top up to one liter. I try to do that at night before going to bed to let it steep all night. When I want a drink, I stir, then mix it half and half with carbonated…

I have a Polar FT7. I love that I can upload my stuff to my computer and see progress over time. I had to buy a special USB thingy for that.

It might be that one slice is too small to recognize, or it could just be the listing. I had to increase my potassium as well. I know that spinach has a high content. The frozen spinach I normally eat doesn't have any listed, on the package or on MFP. I searched through a few more listings and found it with the potassium…

The only reason to take Clomid with out actually trying is to make myself ovulate and get a normal period. But as Clomid has wicked side effects itself, and doesn't seem like a good long term solution, I don't want it. I'll send you a private message. :)

Stay-at-Home-Mom here too!! I have 4 kids and want to lose 50-60lbs. Well now 40-50 cuz I'm already down 10!! :) I have a treadmill that I was using quite well, but got a hellacious period a week and a half ago and I haven't gotten on since. :( We have family coming for Thanksgiving, so now my time is consumed with…

My doctor wants to treat it with the Pill or Clomid. We aren't trying, nor are we preventing. I just want balanced hormones or regular cycles!!! I did a day of research on the internet and started on a bunch of supplements a couple of years ago. Worked great! Lost 40lbs in 6 months . . . and ended up pregnant! She is now a…
