mine works when I hit sync now from the PC - does not work if I try to do it from my iphone

You can have both - I just got the Garmin Vivofit. It's a fitness tracker and HRM (as long as you buy the bundle with the chest strap). So far I love it. I have had a fitbit and the jawbone UP before but would get frustrated having to charge it every few days. The Garmin battery lasts a year! The only disadvantage that I…

How lucky am I to have you on my FL? Truly inspirational.

I have used a fitbit one and currently use a jawbone. Both are great and you'd be happy either way. Really about personal preference. I liked keeping the fitbit in my bra like a previous poster mentioned but I didn't have anywhere to keep it when I slept and it never stayed on. I always found it in my sheets. Then there…

and this is what it's all about! YOU saved your life. Jackie is amazing and you are lucky to have her but you did this for yourself! Your life was heading down a certain path and you reversed it. Absolutely amazing! You look fantastic and more importantly, you're healthy! congrats

where'd the OP go?

yes, please explain what is up with your boyfriend. You're out of the house from 9-2? I'm sorry, you have a boatload of time! Prioritize. I leave my house by 7:15am and am lucky if I'm home by 7:30pm. I have 2 kids, a husband, a dog and a house to take care of. I'm not perfect at keeping to a workout schedule but I…

Same thing here. Kale, spinach and cauliflower are big parts of my diet. I do cook them though so not sure if that's making a difference. The only thing that I have noticed that is negatively effecting me is if I have a high carb day. So I'm trying to keep my carbs relatively low (not cut!) to figure out what is the right…

have a puppy play date

gorgeous! :flowerforyou:

I think you've gotten good answers and I could see WANTING to lose that much weight in such a short period of time - we've all been there but I really think you're setting yourself up for failure if this is your expectation. Anybody else feel like shows like Biggest Loser is doing more harm than good by setting such…

I'm also on Cytomel and Syntrhoid. Just had my prescriptions adjusted last week AGAIN. The combo is definitely much better for me than Synthroid alone, just trying to get the ration right now. It's frustrating but I'm just focusing on feeling better for now and hoping the weight loss will just follow. And managing thyroid…

don't do them as omelets - do egg muffins. works great. google it.

you should have said yes to me :wink:

This^^

Seriously the best gif ever OP: eat

obviously you married a selfish a-hole. Kick him to the curb :drinker:

Your transformation is so phenomenal. Absolutely jaw dropping! Good for you!

I assume that in addition to having your TSH and T4 checked you've also had your T3 checked? Most docs treat all thyroid problems with synthroid and play around with levels and that's it. But it is not always the solution. It wasn't until adding a T3 med to my meds did I start to feel better. They kept telling me my…

I did it! (Just in case anybody ever comes back to this post) It was really hard just with the 45lbs! Yikes. Feeling great though.

huh??? Isn't that what this site is about?

giggling like I'm a 12 year old boy (had to post again after messing up the quote)

That's kind of hilarious

awesome! Writing a lot of this down. And those that keep suggesting I can make something in the morning that is "quick" and "only takes 10 minutes" - I'm not saying I can't make anything in the morning because I'm being lazy. Most days I leave at 5am to go to the gym and then shower there and go straight to work. I make…

Do you make them with or without the potatoes? I'm intrigued.

That's great! I had bursitis in my hip for 3 years and then finally chose to have surgery a little over a year ago. Unfortunately I still have the pain and kind of regret having the surgery. I'm now trying to get back in to an exercise program that chooses some things that are easier on the hip and am doing lots of…

Awesome advice! thanks ! My gym does have a pool and I think I'll just have to get over my fear of bathing suits and give it a shot :sad: The Limber11 video is a great find - thanks for pointing me in that direction. And Sara, I am definitely going to start a more weight based program now!
