I do log heavy/vigorous cleaning, but only when I'm moving a whole lot of furniture around and then SCRUBBING. Everyday tasks don't get logged.

"K-K-K-Katy" is the first one that popped into my mind- my dad and grandparents used to sing it to me. Different spelling, but it's all about the phonetics, right? "Never Wanted Nothing More," by Kenny Chesney reminds me of my husband and me. "Katie laughed and my mama cried when they heard me say "I do" Her little ring is…

When I do C-2-5k, I run outside I have used Endomondo to track my run and then it averages my pace, so I log the average pace and time onto mfp.

Neufchatel cheese with or without jelly. Peanut butter with or without jelly. Just butter.

I saw 42 this weekend and it earned itself a place on my list. The Help Wreck it Ralph Up Good Night and Good Luck Little Women (when I'm having trouble doing my homework- seeing how important it really was to them that a woman could have an education) ETA: Life is Beautiful (How could I forget this one?!?) How to Train…

Jarhead... watched when my husband was deployed.

My three... really my two :( Dallas, my 15 year old beagle/black and tan hound, passed away two weeks ago. Lucy, the dachshund, is 5. Lily, the holy terror, I mean rat terrier, is 2.

Coffee, Vanilla almond milk, Nature's Own 50 Cal bread. Makes perfect sense- coffee and almond milk every morning, a sandwich almost every day for lunch!

I really like Endomondo, but I'm also liking RunDouble with its different options for runs (C25k, Five to 10k, Fun runs, etc) and the ability to use the playlist on my phone. ETA: I don't run a lot so I haven't played extensively with RunDouble. Endomondo's great for tracking walks though :)

Feel free to add me if you'd like. I was diagnosed with PCOS, hypothyroidism, and Factor V Leiden syndrome in 2006 and have been very gradually learning how to best manage it since then. Have you checked with your doctor about going on Metformin? That's what worked for me personally, although I know it doesn't work for…

I've been a size 18-22 at the amusement parks- not Six Flags, but Disneyland and Knotts Berry Farm, and was able to get on and off the rides comfortably- they had restraints for larger people than me. I don't think you're going to have anything to worry about! Congrats on the weight loss!

We invested in a stirring popcorn maker and make it with olive oil. I've never looked back to microwave! It takes about the same amount of time and tastes WAY better.

I <3 Skinnytaste! I like the skinny chicken enchiladas, but hands-down my favorite is the jalapeno popper chicken. Portion size isn't a problem for me. If I need it, I double the portion.

Hi! I was diagnosed with PCOS about 6 years ago. I have about 40ish lbs to go.

You all are so beautiful, brave and inspiring! Here's mine. I will never, ever ever wear tank tops because of my linebacker's shoulders. But I will wear them under things so I can try to hide the "muffin top" that my stomach always has, even though these jeans are quite loose. I also never go without makeup because my skin…

I have it for wii and have been using it for about a month, and am just now (like this week) interspersing it with 30 DS. I love love love the Zumba game, and 30 DS is so nice for getting in more toning, even though it's kicking my behind right now :)

I live in Las Vegas now (which is always good) but Oregon is home and I love the entire state (so many different climates). Coast, mountains, wine country, desert. People always hear about Portland but it's so much more.

Vera Wang Princess, Bath and Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar (it's the only vanilla scent I've found that doesn't smell absolutely disgusting- the other ones smell like over sweet chemically grossness) As far as candles/Scentsy goes, I really like fruity smells in my house and clean ones. I have Yankee Candle's Mango Fruit…

ok so I can't get it to post right so refer to my profile pic :)

I'm there too! And have the underactive thyroid problem as well. Bleh! It's really nice to not feel alone though :)

When I was out of creamer, I started using Pacific Natural Foods organic vanilla almond milk and it's awesome! It's 70 cals for a whole cup.

^This! I always feel like pulling out the spaghetti sauce and saying "NO! THIS is Prego!!"

I'm from Oregon. And not from Portland. Once when I was donating blood here in Vegas, I had the lady look at my driver's license and say, "Oregon huh? Is it true they have great weed?" Um, I wouldn't know?

Hi Amanda, Your story sounds like mine! I have both thyroid problems and PCOS. We also want to have a baby, which is much of the reason I'm losing weight. I know it can be so, so frustrating! You definitely aren't alone.

Oops... supposed to say "or something rich in citric acid."

Hello! I take the generic equivalent of Fergon- ferrous gluconate. It's what my hematologist recommended as the gentlest for my stomach. It'll absorb more if you take it with orange juice or something, and avoid dairy or calcium-rich food around the time you take it. Hope this helps!

Hey all! I just found this thread. I'm a native of Cottage Grove, Oregon, but I've lived in Vegas for the past six years. I miss the rain so much!
