PCOS does make it all confusing. I have been diagnosed with it for 13 years, but I know for a fact that I had it before that just couldn't find a good doctor. I just pretty much tell the doctors what I want and they do it lol. I had one general practitioner that was very understanding and helpful. She said to keep up with…

I am 5'4 and my husband is about 5'11. I am 100 lbs heavier than he is currently. We are both trying to get 180 lbs. I have always been big and he has always been small. He is just as insecure about his weight as I am about mine.

Age: 33 Height: 5'4 SW: 315 CW: 260.8 GW: 180 (may change as I get closer)

The first cat my husband and I used to have loved cantaloupe. We would come in the house with one and he knew what it was. The cat we have now loves asparagus and artichokes. At least they eat healthy lol.

Spiro is short of Spironalactone. It is used for unwanted hair growth and it is also a diuretic. I have been using it for over a year and see such a big difference. Still have the hair growth, but it grows slower and not as heavy.

My main pet peeve is at my gym there is a guy that uses one machine in the circuit and uses it for about 30 minute or more. That's all he does. Messes up everyone else when they are trying to do the circuit right.

When I can afford it, I drink 1 to 2 glasses of red wine a night. It hasn't effected my weightloss. I am doing South Beach Diet and on Phase 2 you can have 1 to 2 glasses of red wine. Love it.

My husband and I have been married for a little over 11 years now. He calls me Butthead and I tell him bite me lol. Sometimes he has been known to walk up and bite me lol.

I have PCOS as well. For me to get to my goal weight I have at least 80 more pounds to go. I have lost 54 in the past year. I am doing South Beach Diet and I love it. You are welcome to add me if you like.

I used to hate exercise as well. But now I find I actually enjoy it. I enjoy how I feel afterwards. I missed going to the gym on Monday because my husband was home. I won't ever ever do that again. I was going to do Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Couldn't get myself to go Tuesday, so finally I went yesterday, but I almost…

On my PC I am playing Diablo 3, but only play once a week. In my Wii it is Just Dance 2. Xbox 360 I don't think there is anything it right now. And the Atari I don't think is plugged up right now.

Sounds yummy, minus the honey. I have never been a big fan of honey.

You look awesome and very inspirational to me. I am the same height, but my SW was 315, but my GW is 180. Can't wait to get there myself. Keep it up!

I am making lentil soup tonight. Yummy.

The LoyalAngel part I created several years ago as a gaming name, which came from the meaning of my real name Veronica. Veronica means Mirror image which is from the bible. I used the thesaurus until I came up with something I liked. And the 16 is because I was born November 16th.

My wonderful and supporting husband and Books, I love books.

I have PCOS as well. I am currently on South Beach Diet and I love it. Lost 54 pounds so far on it. It has taken me a year to get there, which seems so little, but I would rather it come off slow than fast anyway. The low carb diet will help with the belly. You are welcome to add me if you like.

Oops, when I said 18, I went back and looked today and I was looking at fiber not carbs. My carbs I stay at about 120g a day. Sorry still somewhat new to all this.

I used to be a big PC gamer as well. I still play one game from time to time, but now found that I love exercising even more. I also love reading books and still do that every once in awhile. Now that I am moving more, I want to continue doing it. You can add me if you like.

I know I have pretty much cut caffeine out of my diet. I drink decaf tea and coffee. Now every once in a blue moon I drink Coke Zero. If I go overboard though I can feel myself bloat. I do know caffeine causes your body to retain fluid, which may be why it is good for us PCOSers to stay away from it.

It is actually a myth that shaving hair makes it darker and thicker. My doctor told me that you can get rid of it anyway that you find works best. If shaving hair actually made hair come back thicker, then most men would be shaving their heads more just to help with balding. Shaved hair lacks the finer taper seen at the…

I shoot for 18 myself. Most days I go over it, but not by too much. And the carbs I eat are from fruits, veggies and whole grains. I do South Beach diet, which I don't have to count anything at all. I have lost 51 pounds so far. September will be a year since I have been working on losing my weight. It is slow, but staying…

I love them in the microwave and then fix it just like a regular potato. Little butter, little cheese and little sour cream. If I feel like plucking some chives, then I go to the backyard and get some and put them on there as well. Don't even miss baked potatoes.

Wow, never met anyone with the same First and Middle name

Veronica. I have known a few growing up. Was named after my dad because I was the first born and looked just like him. His name is Ronald Gene and mine is Veronica Jean.

I weigh first thing Sunday morning

You look awesome. Such inspiration. Can't wait til I look that good in a swim suit.

I am on Spironalactone as well. I have hair growth really bad, feet to head and back to feet. It has been really hard to deal with it, but once I started taking the Spironalactone I have noticed a big difference. I went from having to shave my legs every day to maybe every 2 days. Also I shave my face everyday. The…
