The reality is that, at some point, we have to let go of what we think and trust what our significant other is saying. It could be something entirely unrelated to your relationship that is bothering her or maybe there isn't anything wrong at all and she is simply growing as an individual and in a weird place. Relationships…

I have the Polar F60 (purple one). I am usually standing up when I take my resting HR, but my HR is normally in the 80s when I am at the dr office and I even had my bf double check it for me to ensure that the Polar was not off as far as my HR goes. Can I change my settings for what is considered as aerobic? When I run, my…

I am not married, but I do not accept friend requests from guys, but not because I am in a serious relationship and love my boyfriend.....I don't accept them because of the messages and comments that I have gotten in the past. Since I am not looking for anyone and this is not a dating site, I don't feel the need to add…

I am quite certain that you are not a slut for wearing clothing like that or any clothing that you choose to wear. I can also tell you probably should not be putting up with him treating you that way. It sounds like you have a very difficult relationship. I would offer counseling to him as a last resort.....but I can tell…

really, my iud is amazing. i don't do well on the pills or the nuvaring and ive tried pretty much all of them. i was scared to get the paraguard for ages, but finally did it and i have never been happier. the cramps are slightly worse but manageable with advil. the first month was not a lot of fun, but after that, its been…

Got it! And its amazing! =) I am a much more balanced person emotionally now! And less bloated! I feel sooo much healthier! Thanks for the advice! <3 Lizzy

I am concerned somewhat about fertility after using the Paraguard. Has anyone had problems getting pregnant after using the Paraguard? My doctor assures me that this is not a concern unless you get a pelvic infection, which would diminish fertility potentially anyways. But I am curious as to other people and how they have…

Thanks everyone! I think the concensus is the Polar! I am going to research and get one soon! =) Lizzy

................................. Unfortunately, when people with anorexia are losing weight, their bodies are surviving off from muscles and vital organs. Gradually, their bodies lower the amount of calories necessary and begin to place energy into the most important body functions--such as breathing, their hearts…

Yeap. I count any liquid I drink as part of my water....including tea, juice, milk, protein shake, etc.

I think that you need to go talk to someone about this. Eating disorders are not something to fight yourself. You need some back up. I am not trying to be harsh when I say this, but you really do need to try counseling. It helps to change your mind frame about food. =) If you are so thin that it hurts, perhaps now would be…

It is important, I think to incorporate rest days or lower intensity days so I normally work out and do cardio and then some yoga or pilates or ride on my off day. =) Sometimes your muscles just need a break. =)

BearNaked Heavenly Chocolate Granola. So yummy. And not bad for calories. Its like guilt free sin cuz its good for you!

None of us are every entirely happy with ourselves. We just all have to learn to accept ourselves as we are and the less we criticize ourselves, the more happy we become and the better we become. It is hard to do. But every time you have a negative thought about yourself, replace it with two positive ones. Even if it seems…

I need the support too so feel free to add me as well. Can't ever have too much support! =)

Right now I am using Kariva which is a generic for Mircette. I thought I loved it at first but by the 3rd month I have begun to hate it. I am still less bloated than I was before tho on Yaz. I have tried Ortho Tricyclen Lo and Ortho Cyclen and Yaz and Yazmin and Nuvaring. Some made me sick, some made me moody, but all have…

No sugar. Only 6 carbs. I just feel more bloated after them and I've gained a lot this past month. 5 lbs! =o( I am hoping counting calories again will help. But I was willing to cut out protein shake altogether if I had to.

I fluctuate too. =( Sometimes between 2-3 lbs a day. I think its water weight for me. I seem to be bloated....probably cuz I am on bc and the hormones in it.

I definitely need some motivation. I quit myfitnesspal and within a month I had gained back 5 lbs to the 2-3 lbs I had lost. So now I have a lot to make up for. Any recommendations! And add me as a friend! =P Lizzy lizzymaez - eat healthier/watching calories, start riding 2-3 times a week, cardio/running at least 3 times a…

I am totally in. =P My weigh in on April 1 was 122 lbs and I have 12 lbs to go! I am at the point where I am going to have to have lots of motivation to lose this last little bit. =) So I can use all the support I can get! Lizzy

Hello Everyone. One of my friends recommended I join this group for some motivation. =) I am 26 and live in Ohio. I am definitely out of shape compared to what I used to be. So upsetting but I am finally doing something about it this year! 2011 is a year of plenty of good changes! =) Anyhow. I hope to lose 4 pounds this…
