Any team is great, I'm new to this.

Welcome back! I myself am back for the 3rd or, 4th time. My first time around I was very successful after I was honest with myself and, tracked everything. I also did the best with weight lifting workouts (chalene on beachbody).

I restarted at the end of october at 210. I'm down to 189.6. Anyone feel free to add me.

I got back on the mfp wagon at the end of October. I was compelled to do this after an appointment with my gyn. She gave me two options: either work on my weight and, see her in 4 months or, she was sending me for a blood draw right then. I am terrified of needles so, getting back to mfp it was! Well, my follow up appt is…

My boss commented this morning that I must be doing well on my diet because he's noticed that I've lost weight. I've only lost 10lbs so, not much but, I guess people are noticing.

As a fellow PCOSer...great work! You are doing amazing. Also, look at the calves! My calves have always been a bit on the large size but when I lost weight prior to having my first daughter (7 years ago I went from 210 to 159) I finally was loving my leg muscles. Super cute kittens too!

I'm back at it on mfp. 42yo. 5'4 SW 210 1st goal: 189 Ultimate goal: 130. I think. I've not weighed that little since my early 20s. I was this weight when I got down to 159 before getting pregnant with my first over 7 years ago. I was finally feeling good about myself then. Infact, the first time I went to buy maternity…

Luckily my kids are super healthy eaters. My PCOS is a major hurdle and, I feel like I'm constantly under a time crunch. I'm hoping going to winter hours at work will allow me to feel like I can use that extra hour I'm home early to get a quick workout in. Thanks for accepting my friend request.

Congratulations! I'm going to friend you. I'm starting back this week after letting things get out of control since getting pregnant with my first over 7 years ago. Prior to that I'd lost 51 lbs and, I was really feeling great about myself and, I'd gotten out of the dreaded obese BMI and, was really headed to a healthy…

I would like to lose 80-90lbs. I lost 50lbs 7 years ago then I had 2 kids and, I've gained weight after each one. The youngest one is 4 now and, I need to do something. I'm not comfortable with my own body. I had a dr's appointment yesterday and, I need to check back in with her in 4 months. I really would like to have…

I never O'd on clomid. I've O'd on 7.5mg femara 7 times now. I O'd 3 times, took last summer off, O'd in November and conceived that ended in miscarrying twins in Dec & Jan. Then I O'd 3 more cycles and conceived the last cycle. 12w today. :) Good luck! I really like it, my RE doesn't even bother with Clomid. I also didn't…

12Wks today. EDD:3/7. Hi everyone!

Congratulations!

We used it in Nov and got a bfp in Dec (which resulted in a mc) between the preseed and pergnitude they were the only new things to our regime. I had it in my head that I had hostile CM even though I'd have pretty watery CM around O. I'd just recommend not using very much. It would almost run out of me even with the…

I'm feeling the same way right now. I've been back at it, doing what I though I did in the past and had success doing. But, it's been two weeks and I've not lost anything. I know I need to tackle weekends, that is my battle ground right now. But even during the week I try so hard and see nothing. I really wanted to be down…

This time of year on Sundays I make up a batch of weight watcher's 0 point soup (veggie stock, cabbage, zuchini, mushrooms, green beans with spices) and a bunch of shrimp. I end up eating a cup of the soup and 3-4oz of the shrimp (or chicken, ham if I have extra left over from dinner the night before) and a string cheese.…

Can you try to snack on high protein snacks? So, cheese, nuts (I like almonds, they are kind of sweet to me), hard boiled eggs, beef jerky or some sort of other meat.

I'm taking it right now. I was on CD55 or so when I called the Dr and I have a wedding that I'd like to not get my period for in 3 weekends. I've taken it several times before. The first time I took it my Gyno scared me to death about how my period would be. It was nothing, I used lite tampons and that was all. I've had…

Yes, I may do it. I'm going out shopping with my mother to see if I can possibly fit into a size 12 dress. I'm bringing a pair of spanx with me too!

I posted this on a pcos weight loss group on fb that I belong to today: Just a vent. We have a big wedding to go to next month and I'm thinking about renting a fancy dress to wear to it. Since I'm still losing weight I was looking at different sizing charts to see what size I should be reserving. Going on measurements I…

My IBS symptoms seem to have drastically decreased since I started acupuncture.

Congratulations and Happy Birthday! Today is my birthday too. :)

Congratulations! Look at those shorts just hanging off of you now!

Me too please?

Thanks for those links! :)

Are you on metformin? I tried it for 3 or so months. I was so worried when I went off of it all my weight would pile back on and it didn't. I'm trying to remember the diet book I've seen on the PCOS boards. Is it the ultimate PCOS diet workbook or something? Have your dr run some blood work for you.

I haven't lost as much as you have but I've also not been able to get back on the bandwagon after Christmas. I really paid attention to my calories, stay between 100 and 150 g of carbs a day (most of those I get from fruits and veggies), I do Jillian's 30 day shred with some additional cardio mixed in. When I do eat…
