  • I like the eat more, exercise more idea....when you need chocolate, frankly you just need it! Also, can you go on the pill? That helped me A LOT! It just evened things out all around...I take a low estrogen dose pill....maybe ask your doc?

  • I am having a similar thing....up 2 lbs in 3 days!....and I am most certain it is from Advil (I have been eating them like chicklets for a crazy headache that is probably due to sugar withdrawl LOL!)....I have been so good with my eating this week and my exercise level has been the same. NSAIDS can really wreak havoc on…

  • This is actually a great question.......Estrogen is a hormone, and hormones need fat to function properly, there is a certain percentage of body fat you need to have your hormones working properly, and have your TOM, that is what she is saying....in men, when they get below a certain percentage of body fat, their…

  • You are not alone in your confession and I agree that the fact that your husband was able to be honest with you is priceless....keep that sacred and keep working at it...the big picture will come together.
