Beetroot ;-) It colors your pee purple and gives you lots of B-vitamins, potassium and iron.

42. How many meals do you usually have a day? about 2 real meals and 4 snacks or protein shakes on normal working days: First Protein Shake in the morning after bed before my morning workout (Kettlebellswings or Tabata and some stretching) Breakfast (11am): Oatmeal with greek yogurt and berries or lentils, eggs and spinach…

Boxing, Punches, in some gyms they have an "arm bike" or rowing but with a fixed seat... And if you're really hurt - rest! And let your body heal! Beste wishes to you!

41. Where are you from? Is your country’s diet healthy or unhealthy in general? Switzerland. I think it's generally relatively healthy, as it is a rich country. A lot of the typically swiss foods are very calorie dense. But I rarely ate those...

oh hell yes... I hate it when my family (sisters) who were lucky and didn't get it or my mother (I think she has it,m but doesn't want to "admit") "forget" that I can't eat everything and that my low carb is not about being fancy!

Slightly off topic: Do you know how this 2-hrs-window and the insulin you need to gain muscles works with Insulin Resistance?

40. What is your body frame? Small, large or medium? They always told me it's large and that I have large/heavy bones. But when I go with the wrist size rule it's small. And that's more what I feel/think.

Yes - it's going very fast. And two days later all the acne is back... :-(

Oh - an thank you ladies! Reading your posts makes me feel less lonely, less weird, less abnormal. They make me realize, that this is just pcos/ir reality! Thank you so much! And I prefer pco-mfp-friends. So feel free to add me, if you want to support eachother in the longterm down and daily up and downs ;-)

39. Try a new veggie today. Learn how to prepare it and enjoy! How was it? There was no time for buying or cooking today. But s few days ago I had a special italian spinach. And I also bought parsley root. It's still waiting in my fridge...

I also need to go with a low carb/glyycemic Index to low/no sugar diet. Plus I supplementing a lot of the mineral nutrients and Vitamin D. It really helps me. So I could start to lose. I always did a lot of exercising an dancing and I was always too heavy "for what I eat and what I do". But if I start with carbs it's…

38. Have you ever binged? If so, what is your binge food? Binging: it depends on definition. I have definitely eaten too much. And I have had moments when I was eating 100 g of chocolate in a few minutes or tahina with honey by the spoon. But it always ended after 600-800cals. There were several reasons I realized now.…

me too except I'm 36 ;-)

37. Have you ever purged? If so, how did you feel afterwords? No, I was never able to... though I tried... But luckily it didn't work...

and another thought about it: I feel that "the others" often feel guilty and embarrassed by people actually DOING the change and start to live healthy/care for themselves/exercise. Because you prove them that you can do it. And then they should be able to do it too... and there excuses melt away. It's their subconscious…

Or Magnesium and Kalium/Potassium Supps

36. Write your current weight. Have you lost anything in the past week? If not, what are your plans for this week? 66kg it's 1/2 kg less (a bit more than a pound) than last week. I'm happy and going on doing what I'm doing.

booah.. that's tough... but kind of fun though... but it was almost killing me. I think a (tiny little) part is also the (tiny little) cold inside my body... I sweat like a pig!

Hey girls! I'm back. I did 9 1/2 days of level one... now I had a break and you just motivated me to start with level 2 today! see you in 40 min!

How much did you eat before? For how long are you now on the 1400? Maybe it's too little. So you can either go back to what you ate before and cut down slowly (100-200cal/week) or up to somewhere in-between and eat there for a week or two. If you feel comfortable and losing weight, there you go, if you're not losing, cut…

36, 5'3'' 66kg and in a hurry ;-)

great recipes... thank you!

bump

35. Have you ever fasted? What was the reason for it? I have done a few juice fastings in my teens, I thought they might help. And in a way they did. But I would never ever do this again, too much sugar for my body to process and too little protein... And I did some ramadan days when I lived in Egypt and spent them with my…

34. Do you take your meals from home to work? If so, what do you usually prepare? I work a lot from home. And I mostly have some snacks like nuts with me.

do more (and a bit longer) stretching in the end. Especially for thighs, glutes and calves!

thank you guys! That's what I needed now... what a wonderful fun thread! :-D

33. Are you on a diet or are you making this a lifestyle? I'm in between. I just recently learned that I have pro/ir. That's why I need to lose some 20 lbs of body fat. For this I'm kind of dieting. But in a way that is close to how I will/want/have to eat forever... For me the difference is in how much I really count or…

32. Try a new fruit today. Learn how to cut/eat it and enjoy! How was it? oh... today... today has only 10 more minutes here and then is tomorrow.. and I had no fruits today. not a single one. not an old and not a new one. I had a weird day today. Almost no time for eating or shopping and a pretty empty fridge. So I just…

Day 9 - done! I don't feel to good today, but it's my usual november-first-snow-knee-and- shoulder-pain. So after the years I know it's gonna go away in a few days...
