  • I have PCOS and was taking metformin to help regulate hormones, menstruation and help me conceive a baby. I noticed it helped me a great deal with a boost in weight loss. Before with my first real attempt at weight loss I did curves almost everyday (2x around the circuit) for about 7 months and only saw maybe 15lbs. I was…
  • My dog (a 45lb siberian husky) loves her walkies! Yesterday I took her on a 6mile adventure! To make matters worse (in her mind) I made her carry her own water! She is super enthusiastic for the first half...after that she just kinda pokes along and slows me down. I have to keep encouraging her verbally or she will stop to…
  • instead of restricting yourself....why not do some strength training? your weight will go up a little but it will cut your fat percentage! besides it's much better to be heavier as long as it's muscle in there! plus you will look amazing! :D
  • Bump.... these sound delicious and i cannot wait til the bananas are ripe!
  • Florida born and raised but have been residing in central New York for about 7 years now (ugh!) Hubby said we can move back after his schooling is done! yay! So....anyone from the Ocala area? that's my "hometown" if you will! Add me if you like...I'm pretty active and comment when I can!
  • I started the C25K app a week or two ago, but due to a really bad upper respiratory cold , I've not been able to finish my first week. :( As soon as i'm better I'm going to start over! I really like the app and after my first session I was exhausted but i felt so accomplished! I hope my lung capacity will increase because…
  • I'm really glad someone posted all this. I've been, in general, very anxious about eating late at night because of all the here-say about it. I'm a nursing assistant. I work (120hrs a week) 16hr shifts twice a week and every other weekend (from 7a to 11p) and when I come home at night I am hungry. I've felt so guilty about…
  • Thanks everyone! I'm so proud of myself for finally getting the nerve to do this! I've not been skinny (that I can ever remember) and I really want to experience a life with less restrictions! No real secrets here. I cut out carbs for a month and dropped so much right away! I have PCOS and I guess that was affecting my…
  • I can't get my photo to post.... :(
  • Maybe I cooked it wrong? I mean it tasted good....but it went mushy and didn't "spaghetti" for me...i was very disappointed when i watched the video it came out nearly identical to pasta.
  • I just had Shirataki noodles for the first time tonight and I liked them very much! They have an odd crunch to them but they really are a blank slate just like pasta and noodles. It's only 20 calories a serving and low carb and are supposed to be really healthy! The have the ramen noodle look about them so i guess you…
  • Nope. My Winter is very independent. she has never been one to follow me or be very cuddly...unless she wants something! When she wants something she will woooo, paw and stare at me. Other than that she has a particular spot on the floor where she always lays no matter where i am, and she only gets concerned if i leave the…
  • I've got a Siberian Husky named Winter (that's her in my pic) and a shih tzu/ Lhasa apso mix named Bitsy! I really wish my Husky were more energetic...lol...now that I'm biking I really want her to tag along! it's a great bonding experience....but I'm afraid to exhaust her physically. I'd really like to have a dog that…
  • I did about an hour of walking...would have done more but just spent 16hrs on my feet walking at work! I have a question....if i start my walk at 11:30pm....and it ends well after midnight....which day should it be logged?
  • I can't do it in one sentence.... I've been struggling to lose weight for years now...but i got a very heart-felt text from my cousin and it out me in tears...and got me seriously thinking.It was my wake up call...even tho i knew i was unhealthy...no one had ever "spoken" to me so sincerely about my health and size before.…
  • I love biking....but I'm in Central NY and pretty soon I won't be able to bike due to the icky winter we have. I don't know what I'm going to do to keep from being sedentary once the winter hits....that's usually when i gain all my lost weight back. :( It's really great exercise and faster than walking! If weather and time…
  • I'm losing fat and can't wait until I can.... - Wear a bikini for the first time ever! -ride a roller coaster again! - feel healthy, sexy, and worthwhile! -conceive a child! -make my family, friends, and husband (and myself!) proud of me!
  • I have been logging it as something similar because i hadn't any clue how else to do it. the weighing sounds like a good idea as well. i didn't weigh individual patties (really haven't got a way to do it) but there is a total weight provided as it's sold by such.
  • I'm in this group and it would be nice to have a friend or two! I'm 207 (217 according to the scale at the Dr office) and 5" 2. I started at around 237 a few months ago! Stoked that I have lost about 30lbs! It's not easy! I work in a nursing home and rehab facility and there are TONS of unhealthy choices around…
  • I had the same problem for ages! I'd go to the doctor and gyn/ob and they always told me there was nothing wrong with me. I was certain there was. So....at the urging of my husband I again got a new doctor (actually a nurse practioner) who listened to me! Seems I've had PCOS as well...since 15....which is why I began…
