My endocrinologist has reduced my thyroid medication twice in the past four months. Twice!

I also have asthma, but I've found that if I take Ventolin a half-hour before doing vigorous exercise (like running), the asthma attack doesn't occur. The more in shape I get, the less asthma attacks I get during exercise. Cold weather and synthetic scents make my asthma worse, so I try to exercise out of those…

I'm 5'4" or 5'5" and I want to get somewhere between 130-140, not sure yet. My smallest was 156 and I wasn't quite happy there. SW: 178 CW: 168 GW: 140ish

You definitely aren't the only one worried about this. I gained a lot of weight over the Christmas holidays and I freaked out because my dress wouldn't zip up. I'm back on track now, but I won't be anywhere near where I wanted to be by my wedding day. P.S. You look great. :flowerforyou:

You can add me too! I started it a few days ago but then had to quit (asthma). But I'm ready to get back into it again.

Hi, feel free to add me too. I'm looking to lose about 50 lbs, but would be happy to lose 15 for my upcoming wedding.

Yup. I asked him. It was adorable.

Oh my god, that happens to me too! I had a coworker tell me that a couple of years ago! Well, I gained 30 lbs, had a bunch of thyroid issues, and am STILL cold.

Thanks, everyone. I'm happy to say that we are now engaged. I couldn't be happier if I tried.

My pap smears are incredibly painful. I always bleed and get cramps afterwards. That shouldn't make you afraid of sex, though. I find I'm still able to do it most of the time, though there are still a few positions that hurt. Hang in there. You're doing really well. :)

Bump.

Hello, I'm starting the 30DS for the... fifth?... time? I think? Yes, anyway, motivation is definitely in order here.

This^^. My boyfriend is 5'6" and weighs between 115 and 120 lbs. He loves the way I look and tells me so on a regular basis. His support has been one of the biggest motivators for me to get healthier. It sounds like you might want to re-evaluate your relationship.

I've been feeling in the same boat as you. I can't seem to be losing weight despite exercise and eating carefully. I've been sleeping at least 9 hours a night, sometimes more. It's strange because my dose is high for my weight, so I don't think it is that. I just feel helpless and gross and unhappy with myself despite…

I was in an emotionally abusive relationship at one point, and my partner was talking about marriage. He didn't actually propose, but he made it clear that I would need to lose weight for marriage to happen. It escalated quickly into him controlling/wanting to control many other aspects of my life. Ending the relationship…

I'm losing for my friend's wedding in August.

I'm going to buy my first-ever bikini and wear it to the beach. I'm also going to buy 5 sundresses in various colours and not have to worry about the rash that comes from my thighs rubbing together.

My cat stakes out her territory on my yoga mat, and when I try to move her, she sits on my lap. The only thing that works is to scare her away with my exercise ball, but I feel so mean doing it. I feel your pain.

Misogyny.

Feel free to add me, too!

Hey! I'm 23, 170 lbs, and in need of motivation. I'm sending you a friend request.

Sending you a request, too.

We are engaged but haven't yet set a date. We're talking about getting married in a year and a half or so, prior to moving to the States.

My ex-boyfriend once said: "Your shoulders are so thin! You're meant to be skinny." He also said: "How do you feel about the fact that you'll never be smaller than a size 8?" He was dumped raaaather quickly.

I've been told not to eat any calcium, soy, zinc, caffeine, or eggs within 4 hours of taking the medication.

I have endometriosis, so I can relate to your terrible cramps. My OB/GYN put me on the NuvaRing, and I keep it in for four months (one ring for four weeks times four rings) and it has helped IMMENSELY with the cramping. Every other form of hormonal birth control I have tried has made me nauseated, moody, and depressed.…

You look great! Your whole shape has changed!

Hi! I'm 5'5" and looking to lose 30-40 lbs. I log in every day and am very motivated to lose the weight. I'd love to have you as a friend!

I just finished the first day as well. Best of luck with it! Feel free to add me for motivational purposes (I know I can certainly use some!).

Hi! 173-130 here. Feel free to add me. I'm always looking for friends to help motivate!
