  • Before you start comparing salaries you have to realize that the STARTING pay for a teacher is a lot lower then a teacher who has been in the field for years. But you know how teachers imrpove their salaries? by continuing their education into masters degree, but guess what? School districts DO NOT pay for this education,…
  • Diet sodas help me from giving into worse things. I also love Diet rite, which is made with Splenda instead of aspertame and doesnt have the caffine. But still, I know that it has crap in it that isnt the best but it it keeps me from chowing down on cake...then so be it.

  • misstresseyore- Who put you on that diet? I'm just curous. Most doctors who diagnosis PCOS wont have diet restrictions for you. Also that seems like a lot more carbs then what was reccomended to me. However, each peron has their own way that works. Its about finding that magic formula, especially wiht PCOS. Different…

  • this is what I follow. The highest my total carbs go for a day is 80, but the net carbs is alot lower than that. You can add me as a friend to see my diary.
  • There are medical conditions where low carb diets are best.... just saying. As a women with PCOS(look it up) I find it ridiculous when someone tells me to just each a wel balance diet...beacuse even counting my calories i will not lose weight unless i cut the carbs.
  • everything!
  • as long as your not restricting your calories to an unhealthly amount there is nothing wrong with trying to lose weight while trying to get pregnant. It can help your body actully concieve.

  • jalara- It was a little urgent. My old OB wasn't doing anything for me even tho i had been bleeding for 2 months and my cramps were so severe that I ended up in the ER. So I switched to a highly reccomend ob who took one look at my ultrasounds, saw ym very cystic ovaries and said "lets so a D&C, laprascopy and ovarain…

  • i agree.. however one point i would like to make is that for some people like myself they need to follow a certain restricted diet for health reasons. I have to follow a low carb diet...thank you insulin resistance. So i do use the atkins resources sometimes. like i love their meal bars and things. however i dont follow…
  • every 10 days or so I let myself have a meal of whatever the hell i want. If i know there is family thing coming up i save it for that. i'm changing my lifestyle, but that doesnt mean i cant enoy a burger, fries and a shake every now and then.
  • hang in there! it actully might help to lay off the excersize for a day or too.. your body can adjust to what you are doing. you can also try zig zagging calories to higher, lower...just to boost that metabolism. personally when i am stuck i restrict the hell outta my carbs and i usually budge.

  • hi ladies! i am sorry i have been MIA for over a month... shame on me. In my defense it has been a bit of a crazy month. I am still losing weight, but my homrones and PCOS decided to freak out. Probably due to the hormal change sin my body due to weight loss. LAst week I hd to have surgery. A D&C and cycst removal and…
  • you van enter your ingrediants into the recipie tool and it will tell you. Seems super duper yummy!
  • Surgery is extreme for pcos and will often times not help because the reasons why the ovaries are cystic is because of the hormone imbalance and insulin resistance. There is a surgery known as ovarian drilling which helps relese the hormones in the ovaries and can improve fertility and help with weight loss. I just had…

  • I've done low carb for awhile now. I stay under 100 grams of carbs per day. High fiber and high protien is key. I see the othe rposts to this thread aren't really pro low carb, but I can tell you that even though it is hard at first you will eventually not miss it. Some things to think about.. ALOT of your favorite foods…
  • I don't understand why people have to question people.. I lost about 40lbs in my first 90 days too. wtg!!!!! keep it up!
  • weird question... but are your cycles normal? Your elevated blood sugar and weight gain made me think of PCOS which is a women disorder where insulin effects your cycle but can also cause unexplained weight gain.. just a though.
