From our discussion entropy83 she wants to do the sightseeing, although she has previously been to the US before so some of the things won't be new to her (i.e. NYC, LA and Las Vegas especially). I can understand and to a agree with you but there is a voice in the back of mind saying 'who cares who you're with, you won't…

Thank you again everyone for your kind words and advice. Unfortunately, I'm unable to take Metformin as I suffer severe symptoms from it but I have been taking Vitamin D as well as some other vitamins (Calcium, Magnesium and Vit C). I completely understand the whole trying to style your hair to cover the thinning…

Thank you for the reassurance :) it does make me feel better because I'm pretty self conscious about it. I've recently started takin a combination of Magnesium, Calcium and Vit D in a powder form mixed with orange juice every night as well as taking a Biotin tablet daily so fingers crossed it will do something. My hair get…

Sorry bear with me while I get these blasted photos to work. SUCCESS :) Above photo taken in 2004 Above photo taken in 2012

Thank you...the truth hurts but sometimes you just gotta hear it :) I know that I have a lot to amend in my life; hearing it through this post has really helped me realise that Kate

I'm really getting more and more perspective with every response I receive so thank you everyone. After seeing the situation in a different light (or should I say many different lights) I can quite happily admit that I may have jumped the gun. As I mentioned in my first post I do tend to jump straight to the worst case…

Thank you so very much for all your responses. I really appreciate all of you taking the time to read and respond to my post :) There are two things that I will be taking from your responses: Firstly, kicking this guy to the kerb...I know that my insecurities do get the best of me and though I wouldn't say I'm clingy I…

OMG!!! I know exactly how she feels because that happens to me nearly EVERY SINGLE TIME I go for an interview. Most of the jobs I've applied for in the past have been through employment agencies, so I always have to have an interview with them first and so far nothing has benefited from them. It's actually getting to the…

I technically started yesterday...is it too late to join this challenge?

Same here - I'm on 3

Hey all, I was diagnosed when I was 15. I suffered from severe period pain and was extremely moody, snapping at my parents for no reason. I went to the doctor regarding the period pain and they tested my glucose and testosterone levels which were both high. I also gained about 20kgs in about about 6 months as well. It was…

I too am new to the group and so far have not been disppointed with all the information and support that I've read. I'm definately an all or nothing girl which is something that I'm trying to stop which is and probably always will be a work in progress. I tried metformin and I too had to stop because of the reaction I had…

I've only just joined this group and I'm telling you I'm already loving it. It literally feels like a weight has been removed from my shoulders seeing with my own eyes that I'm not alone; that we're not alone. Some of the responses were almost like I had written them. I tweeze my chin, neck & chest I shave/wax my stomach,…

Miranda_mom I know exactly what you mean. Once upon a time I had long thick hair, now my hair is really really thin (you can see my scalp) and barely grows an inch in 4 months and I get a lot of hair on my chest which is soooo embarassing. I get a couple of longer strands of hair on my chin and neck which I just pluck out.…

Hey everyone, I too am a sufferer of PCOS. I've been diagnosed for 10 years though I'm only now just starting to get myself into gear. It's good to know that we're not alone - feel free to add me :) Kate

Thanks everyone for your responses. I too get pretty bad cramping on the first day sometimes the second. I'm sure that the more I exercise and begin losing the weight that it will get better but I think that I might stick to light exercise during that time (initially anyway) and then gradually build up enough stamina to…

I've sent you a friend request kr3851 - I too tried the biggest loser though I wasn't really in the right frame of mind (which if speaking honestly is an excuse seeing that I use it for every other failed attempt). Congrats on the loss so far :) Kate
