Decreasing your carb/sugar intake before your period should help a lot.I notice a huge improvement when i do this. it also helps with that lovely pms moodiness since blood sugar stays more balanced.

spaghetti squash! poke some holes in it, pop it in the oven at 375 for an hour and 10, depending on the size and then cut it in havlf and scrap out the seeds ( i sautee or bake the seeds with some salt and O.O.) It's delish!

6 lbs? is that what my profile says? Not trying to be a smartass but I actually don't want to lose any weight.. that's besides the point though. I think that regardless of why you want to try the whole 30, it will deff benefit you in some way she or form. Everyone has their take on paleo and whether its beneficial or not…

thanks for all the input. I decided to try paleo for a while because i found out i have insulin resistance which is strange since I've never had an issue with weight and have generally ate healthy and have been active my whole life. but i noticed when i took grains, starches and fruit except for raspberries out of my diet,…

thanks! i'm not a calorie counter and I find myself actually trying to eat more so I don't lose weight but I could easily put away 2 lbs of fish in a day and feel like that may be too much?

I just started like a week ago! I've always ate healthy whole foods/ dairy and gluten free, but I think I may have some form of insulin resistance cause anytime i ate any type of food with sugar (fruit, even quinoa) I would feel so tired and just blahhh. So i cut out all grains and fruit except for raspberries and holy…

I like to encorporate a bunch of different types of exercises such as weight lifting with some cardio mon and tuesday, yoga on wed, pilates whenever i get a chance and then weights and cardio thurs and friday and a run and/or yoga during the weekend. It keeps me motivated to workout cause I'm challenging myself in…

plant fusion! not that im anti-meat or anything but its vegan and has super pure ingredients, mixes well and tastes pretty darn good!

thanks!

I am no expert and I completely get that PCOS has it's own difficult obstacles to overcome, and i'm not trying to discredit how hard it can be for a lot of people with PCOS to lose weight. With that being said, I personally believe that what we put in our bodies has the power to either negativley effect us and cause…

i actually read an article about how sitting for the majority of your day can decrease your lifespan. yikes! even if you workout and squat your little heart out in the bathroom. i'd like to think that'll give me an extra year :p

its about 10ish miles. not very far but the rd i have to take is crazy busy and i have to jump on the highway for a few exits. is it illegal to ride a bicycle on the highway? hmmm. (in the breakdown lane of course) ;)

that's an awesome resource to have! stairs make for a great little workout, especially when there are 10 flights of them!

no problem! check out "oh she glows.com" its a blog based on vegan recipes. i'm a meat lover but this blog has some awesome alternative recipes that will keep you interested. "diets" can be frustrating, unfullfiling at times and repetitive but this blog keeps things fun, different and creative while maintaining super…

i'm not sure how much you already know so if i tell you something that is obvious to you just ignore it and hopefully something i have to say will help! breakfast can be tricky for some people, however, eating a solid breakfast with a good amount of protein (eggs, plain greek yogurt with some fruit, old fashioned oatmeal…

I don't have PCOS, however, i like to think that i know a decent amount about nutrition and i've some across articles on PCOS in the past. can i first just ask what your typical day to day diet/ exercise routine looks like?

desk treadmills would be great!

haha ya, thats not very helpful but thats okay. thats great that you can fit in a workout AND a shower AND a homecooked meal on your break. jealoussssss!

http://mycocoroons.com/ careful, these babies are addicting!!

good idea, i have one at home that i can bring in and try out. (i don't think her habits are going to change anytime soon; she seems quite content with her little stash of candy) ;)

i share a tiiiiiiny office with someone who is anti-working out, pro-candy so i'm sure i'd get some looks if i did squats and different routines at my desk but oh well.. i think i'm gonna bust a few out right now! i'll letcha know what she says;)

having a desk job is a pretty motivating factor for me. but i know it can be hard when you have other responsibilities and what not. i find that it helps to get up 30-45 min early and do a pilates or yoga workout before work. getting up early def sucks, especially in the winter but you kind of need to ask yourself what you…

good idea, i'll deff try that

nope, we dont :/

we're gonna have some rockin booties girl!

um ya, you suck. thats awesome though. apparently my office use to have a gym before i worked here and when the previous dr. sold his practice, he sold all the gym equipment to:(

wall push ups are another one of my bathroom go-to's. my triceps are looking pretty dang good!

if you have an iphone, "nike training" is a great app. they have beginner, intermediate and advanced workouts ranging from 15-60min (i think). pinterest has some great workout routines that i pull from when i need to change things up a bit. fitsugar also has some good ones, and they're all free! ( i might of paid 3 bucks…

salmon is probably my favorite food EVER so i've experimented a bunch. lately i've been baking it was fresh chopped garlic, some oregano, parsley and some sea salt. then i sautee up some onions with some kale and then steam up a pot of brown rice. sometimes i'll plate it all pretty so the salmon is on top of the rice and…
