I"m so sorry for your loss... :( I had a miscarriage at 10 weeks at the end of June. This is around the time my baby should be born. We had seen a healthy baby/heartbeat at 8 week u/s and one just the day before my natural m/c. I've never had D&C, so I have no idea about recovery time. As soon as I stopped having symptoms,…

I feel your pain!! I have about 20-30 lbs to lose. But I really want a Baby now!!! (I had a miscarrai w/ 2nd preg. 4 mos ago). Even though it is so hard to wait, set a realistic goal for you and try your best! It'll help you to have a healthier pregnancy. I was on bed rest 4.5 wks from high bp. It sounds relaxing but it is…

Hahahaha!! Thanks to you both. I'm going to try again maybe do the lower impact version. Hopefully next time will go better headache wiser. :) now if only I had some rhythm :)

Yes, I doubt it was dehydration. I walk around with a water bottle all day. I drink at least 72 oz. during the day then drank another during the 1 hr workout. And another after. :-/ I have had a whiplash injury before though which caused headaches so I was thinking maybe it was that? 2 advil this morning cured it.

I consider a "binge" when I eat a series of things in a row ... and it continues past when I'm feeling "full." I had a bad binge the other day after some stress - ate 3/4 pint of froyo, unsalted pretzels, animal crackers, chips, salsa... and then felt guilty afterward. I agree with previous posters about having a more well…

I do this but I microwave them so they stay soft. Usually about 30 seconds on the defrost setting and then a short "reheat" setting if they aren't warm already.

I'm also an emotional eater. But, exercising it out helps too. Just think of how awesome you'll feel being in your best shape. That said - I still have the problem of exercising and then eating so I'm no help ;) I'm sorry to hear about your X. What a jerk, indeed!

5' 5" - 169 sz. 12. I have big thighs and hips that keep me in larger sizes even though my waist could go smaller. So annoying!

I read an interesting article recently about Greek yogurt waste, this wasn't it but you get the idea: http://nypost.com/2013/05/22/greek-yogurts-half-a-supertanker-per-year-toxic-waste-problem/[url] And an interesting one on DIY. I haven't tried it yet, if anyone does let me know how it turns out!…

For those of you who don't have a period (for more than 90 days) you should call Dr. for an RX to induce one. It's not healthy for the lining of your uterus to build up that much. I never heard this until last year! And I've been DX for 15+ years.. crazy.

Hi ladies! I've been diagnosed with pcos for 15+ years. My biggest fear was not being able to have kids. There's hope... With clomid and progesterone we have a healthy child. I also had a (very surprising!) natural preg, which ended in miscarriage. I believe it was due to low progesterone and will be taking supplements…

yea, that's actually probably it. Good idea, thanks! I didn't even think about time of day and factors of what I ate etc For workouts I've been doing elliptical, ball core workouts, and EA sports active 2. I also walk but I don't consider that my primary workout. There's also been a little treadmill and bike thrown in but…

Thanks - you too! that's awesome :) It's so nice when old clothes fit again! I started losing inches before lbs.. which helped motivate me.

Yes, yum! Roasted with OO and seasonings. Try parsnips, with OO, salt, pepper, and nutmeg. I could really eat them every day ;)

Thank you :) Great questions for me to think about. Great job on your weight loss!

talking helps, so thanks! I guess I should deal in other ways too so I don't gain it back... not that I'm losing anything yet. If only there were more hours in the day!

Thanks everyone for your support. I have a few supportive family and friends, but most just avoid the topic b/c it is uncomfortable. It's not even that I want them to bring it up as much as check in and say "are you doing ok?" It's been a month and it seems like everyone "forgot" except me. I know that isn't literally…

Panic attacks are scary. I had a really bad one once on a crowded train and literally thought I was having a heart attack. I'm sure you've probably already read it but this page seems useful: http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000924.htm I might recommend yoga for stress relief. If exercise, stress relief, and…

Sounds like fun! :) fitkate80 SW: 175 GW: 159

Sorry to hear about your losses. I had a miscarriage last month (also have PCOS but miraculously got pregnant on our own this time after TTC for almost a year). I want to lose about 30 lbs before another pregnancy. I had already gained about 10 lbs with the pregnancy, we lost the baby at 10 weeks. I'm sick of looking in…
