What about the copper IUD? Not only is it hormone free, but it last 10 years instead of 5 years! I do have sometimes VERY heavy TOM's on it...sometimes to the point of being almost housebound for 2 days because of my flow. But my period is generally 3-5 days and unless my heavy days fall on the weekend and prevent me from…

I still drink diet coke. Eventually I'll cut it out....but I'm trying to be pretty reasonable with everything. I've reduced my caloric intake to 1200 cal (I do eat my exercise cals). I work out every day. I have cut out all of my favorite horrible foods (fried mozz cheese sticks, crab rangoons, mmmmmm!). So overall I'm…

Exercise is really your friend. I do a 1200 calorie diet, but each day I aim to burn 500 calories exercising, which means I then get to eat 1700 calories. Plan out your day so you can fit in snacks when you think you'll desire them. Low cal doesn't have to mean low volume. Veggies are almost completely free. Keep to a fat…

I do exercise videos. Do those count as classes? Also, I LOVE to walk, and I'm absolutely nuts about hiking. My idea of the perfect day is an entire day spent in the backcountry (we live in Seattle, so we live in a giant backyard essentially!) I'm under doc's orders to not walk anything steeper than railroad grade till my…

I tried making them once before and they didn't taste real great. Honestly, I have zero self control when it comes to crag rangoons. It is easier for me to abstain than it is for me to try and make a healthy batch...cause that batch will last one night.... But, I like your idea! I think after I've been practicing good…

I try and eat my temptations (except for one!) I love fried mozzerella sticks...so I have (fully loaded) Precious Colby Jack cheese sticks - 8 grams of fat and 90 cals, but combined with some canadian bacon is a nummy lunch! I love sweets...so 100 Cal Packs, especially at night when my willpower is down. Cookies, so if I…

It took me a little bit to understand why you eat your exercise calories, and while I haven't been doing MFP long enough to really see a lot of results, in this regard I'm trusting those who have done it! In a way it's scary for me to eat my exercise calories. But I'm at 1200 calories and so it is scarier to me to think…

Agreed. Greek is my new sour cream. I make some brown rice with taco seasoning, some ground turkey, lettuce and greek yogurt in a tortilla and have myself a meal so good I can't believe I'm not being naughty!

I was about to post this same question!! I did it for the first time today as a "good morning!" to myself. I could barely lift my arms to wash my hair afterwards! I did level one and had to modify it since I'm under doctor's orders no lunges, squats, or direct pressure on my knee. Great workout especially when combined…
