I'm with you Kris. If you start one, let me know. I'm all for it. I love having a nice private place to vent and to get encouragement.

I teach adult students at a trade school, and one of my super buff students (she is a yoga instructor) noticed how much I've lost and encouraged me to keep going. Its a wonderful feeling, when someone you know could wrestle you to the ground is proud of your accomplishments. Way to go on your NSV! Keep up the momentum.

Happy Birthday! She is beautiful!

Hang in there Mary. Summer time is tough for me too. Its so hot outside, and makes it difficult to stay motivated to excercise. I would like to lose another 20 pounds this summer, so I'm going to keep at it the best I can.

Good morning all! Have a fantastic day. I have a very busy day with 3 massages scheduled, so I'll be burning the calories today!

Hot momma! Keep it up!

Amazing!!!!!! I am so proud of you!!!!

We will be married 14 years in August, and I still make sure he has a hot meal when he comes home everyday. I take extra time to make his favorite treats (even when I can't eat them). I wash his back in the tub, and we always, always say I love you before getting off the phone, or if one of us leaves the house. I also sit…

wow! LOL whiners. Can't stand them

I wouldn't say dumb...misinformed might be a better word choice. You can do it. Slow weight loss gives you plenty of time to develop new good haibits! Best wishes!

How is everyone this morning? I took my kiddo for a little walk this morning. I could tell I have been slacking on excercise. Gotta get back to it! Hope everyone has a great day!

I agree RD, I think there is a point where comments are abusive and ugly, and completely unnecessary. But I also know a lot of wonderful men are out there and they have bad days. My husband would say something to me he doesn't mean. I also know that when he has a bad day, he comes home irriatable and anything I do just…

Some men have a hard time with compliments. However, I would wonder about the being told you are too fat to be seen with comments. My husband would have no room to talk, as he is also overweight, but after I told him outright that I needed him to compliment me when he notices progress (and not just more flexability in…

You are beautiful too!

For me, one or two days doesn't really effect it. A week or more does. I think its going to depend on the severity of the hormone disorder, and your stress levels. I know that with PCOS each person's disease is different from the others....so I am betting you will get a variety of answers.

How about June Bunnies

Well, I cheated and checked the scale. down 3 pounds! Seems the plateau is over.

Its so very hot here. 101 degrees yesterday. Haven't heard the final verdict for today. I am doing well though and spent some time doing yoga. My weekend has been nice and relaxing, which is nice, because yesterday was soo hectic!

very true. I know several people who have had the surgery and been unsucessful because they aren't willing to change what they are doing.

Sorry you are feeling bad. Hang in there! I don't care if we start a new one or not. Just let me know!

Congratulations! you look great!

I use to live in Hamshire! We are practically neighbors LOL

Thanks everyone...its been a long haul so far, and a longer one is still ahead of me. The pictures help to motivate me to keep at it!

I envy your red hair! I always wanted red hair!

You look exotic!

have a good rest, Mary! I'll push you!

If I can wear a 1 piece in public you can definately rock a bikini!

I feel your pain. I use to be a big chested big girl. December 2010, I had a breast reduction, but now the challenge is finding my band size in a C cup. And yes, you are right, most people are reluctant to help you. If you resort to internet ordering, Goddess makes very good sports bras for big girls. And I believe I would…

hahahaha Hilarious!

Way to start a cool thread!
