Will be starting in January, so I'm no help yet. But best of luck to you, and and lots of baby dust. :)

At some point in time, I will write up some kind of web page or blog post entitled "Why losing weight sucks big ____ ____ ____". (Insert whatever object of your disdain you would like) I'll start up front with the easy answer. And good news - it's the one you want to hear. You will, absolutely will, see progress! You will…

One slice of sprouted grain whole wheat (low sodium) toast, a sprinkling (10g) of goat cheese, a slice of bacon (because screw it, I want freaking bacon), and an egg white. Comes out around 179 calories. Then I have some room to add in fruit or something else about two hours later. (As I'm one of those folks who eats about…

20lbs+ is no joke! Way to go!

Started a little thread for folks to answer what they're doing. There are a few replies so far if you'd like to check it out: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/891402-how-do-you-do-it-and-why-does-it-work :) Best of luck to you!

What is your objective? (To lose weight, gain muscle, etc.) My goal is to lose 65lbs (Down 20.8lbs so far!). Then, hopefully, to lose another 40lbs. What is your goal timeframe? (This is disregarding maintenance after you reach goal) First mini-goal (65lbs total) is by August. Why are you doing this? I have PCOS, and I…

Suggestions/thoughts: 1) (Similar to others on here) - Eat what you like, just eat more of the things you like with a low calorie density (More volume, less calories). (Or, alternatively, eat exactly what you like, just less of it.) 2) Don't consider this as punishing yourself, or feel like you're being "sentenced" to eat…

If you're really hungry, especially if it feels like you're not satiated even after eating a good bit, check your fat intake. And keep those proteins up. (It can be hard to eat fat because it's so calorie dense - but trust me!! You'll see a huge difference.) Handful of nuts, avocado, fry eggplant in olive oil - etc. I also…

Definitely eat back those calories! You'll likely sabotage your metabolism if you don't. You'll hear this a lot on here - I know the 10lbs is your goal, but there's a lot more than the scale. Measure your inches if you're working out that much, a lot of times people who work out gain a LOT of tone but don't lose a ton of…

Same to you Julie! And thanks PopCorn! Grats on the weight loss so far!

Hi Nikki!! Liz here, I'm about to hit 31. PCOS as well. I want babies so badly, and I've finally - FINALLY gotten it into my head that NOW is the time to change. So I'm on my way. Feel free to add me, I think you can do that on here? But I'm always happy to have folks to cheer on, or try to encourage. A few things that…

Directly? No. Indirectly? Big time. But I'm going to guess you're starting to suspect you shouldn't be drinking it like you are. I'll try to keep this as short as possible, as I myself am a recovering soda addict. For many of us, soda is just like cigarettes, alcohol, or gambling. Can you enjoy it once and awhile? (A can a…

Luper - Thanks so much. Perspective helps, that's what I was hoping to find out. I'll see what happens for the next two weeks or so and then make changes if I need. Cheers!

Find something fun! I use the Wii "Just Dance", so I look completely silly but I have a blast doing it. Or heck, find an old "Sweatin' to the oldies" at a garage sale. (I suppose that really depends on what you consider 'fun'!) No gym, no problem!
