Get a polar. I have the watch and the loop. The watch I've had for about 6 years and the Loop about 4. No problem with those.

I have the flex 2 as well. I bought a 3rd party bangle for it and I also have a necklace. Both look like nice pieces of jewelry and no-one would know you're wearing it.

I'm on day 12 of 21 day fix and I've lost 5 pounds. Highly recommend.

Hi everyone. My name is Jennifer and was diagnosed with Hashimoto's Disease a few years ago. The doctor that diagnosed me is actually a rheumatologist (my general physician didn't take me seriously at all when I went to him with weird symptoms) and he said I'm on the boarder of having hypothyroidism and may need…

Thanks for the advice!!! I started watching my carbs and following the glycemic index. Since then, I have noticed a difference. I noticed that I feel much better, have a lot of energy and have actually lost some weight if I eat mostly low glycemic foods and eat the high ones sparingly. I guess I am more carb sensitive and…

My trainer said that they just use your weight. I'm 175 lbs so i'm supposed to eat 1700 calories. My friend is 195 lbs so she eats 1950 calories. Were supposed to do 3 days strength training and 3 days cardio for 30 minutes. I asked her if my having Hashimotos would be a factor when calculating calories and she said no,…

I want to start taking CO but I can't find it in the stores. Where do you get it?
-
No one knows your body better than you! I went to my doctor many times complaining of many symptoms and he kept telling me I was over reacting. I finally demanded he refer me to a specialist and what do you know? I have Hashimotos and they found nodules on my thyroid. My doctor didn't bother testing me for anything. It was…

HI. My name is Jennifer and I'm a first time mom to a 3 week old. I used MFP before I became pregnant to lose weight and I want to make a come back to lose the baby weight. I'd love to have other moms as friends. Any advice, support and motivation is greatly appreciated :wink:
-
I may be able to go, depending on the time and if my husband can watch my newborn.

Hi, my name is Jennifer. I'm a first time mom to a three week old. I used MFP to lose weight before I got pregnant and love how manageable it is to use with my busy life. I need to lose 25 pounds to get to my pre-pregnancy weight, but would like to lose 35 total pounds since I was trying to lose those last ten before I got…

I also stayed the same this week. I did manage to work out 4 times this week, which is 4 times more than I have in the last few months. I've been really busy at work. This week I plan to keep up with the workouts and really stay within my calories.

I'm In!! I'm 147 and would like to weight 138 by July 4th.

I haven't tried it but I've been thinking about it. When I do use the scale, I use it everyday, which is not good. I think I'm going to stop and continue counting calories but focus on how I feel and how I look. I say if you're happy how you are, then that's all that matters. Who cares what the scale says.

That used to happen to me all the time. Now, I cut my vitamin in half. I take half in the morning and half at night, both times with food. I think taking the whole thing I may have put too many vitamins in my body at once.

I'd say talk to your doctor about the zoloft issue. If that isn't it, it sounds like you may not be eating enough for what you're working out. As for weight watchers, it did work for me, until they implemented the new points plus program. That did not work for me at all, and I just recently cancelled my subscribtion with…

How do you tolerate spinach? When I need a snack, sometimes I make a shake. I put a scoop of whey protein, some strawberries and spinach and blend it with ice. You can't taste the spinach at all. It tastes like a strawberry smoothie, but still getting some leafy nutrients from the spinach too. I hope this helps.

Thanks! That was inspiring :)

Sounds like I should read it, since I've been dieting since I was in high school and I'd like to get off the roller coaster. Ill pick it up later. thanks :)

I'm almost 30 and my metabolism is slowing down. No matter what I do I'll never be skinny again. (i didn't consider that all those family sized bags of doritos may really be the reason I'm not losing weight).

Dresses are delivered at different times and it depends on where you go. I heard horror stories by five people I know about David's Bridal so I refused to go there. I chose a boutique near my house and yes, I ordered it 10 months in advanced because they said it would take 6 to come in and I'm neurotic so I do everything…

Welcome! You can add me :)

I used weight watchers for about two years. The old way was fantastic. It was easy and I lost weight fast. When they converted to the new way, It was more difficult. I spend hours at the grocery story with my app trying to figure out points to what I was buying. It was more effort, not free and less motivating because I…

My priest told us that it is no longer required to give up anything for Lent, just to make sure not to eat meat on Fridays. When I heard him say that I felt weird, since I had been giving up something all of my life, but then I decided that the food I usually give up I don't need anyways so I would cut back all the time,…

I use it. I put one scoop with water in a blender, along with some frozen berries. When its blended it tastes like a smoothie. It's the only way I can drink the stuff.
-
HI!! You can add me. I also started about 3 weeks ago. good luck on your journey!

I'm pretty new and only have one friend. I could use another one.

Go to hungrygirl.com. There are a ton of recipes for food and deserts there. There are also three books written with tons of recipes; I swear by the books. The author is Lisa Lillian. I've got my co-workers addicted to low cal cupcakes. There's everything you could think of in these books.

I drink green tea as well, in the morning and before bed. During the day all I drink is water and I put lemon or lemon juice in it. The lemon juice is supposed to help speed your metabolism (so I've heard) but I like that it masks the flavor of plain water.
