My Charge HR broke last week and they upgrade me to Charge 2 for free. Really good customer service.

My PMS is more angry than flirty.

Double quarter pounders. DREAM BIG

Ugh! Tell me about it. I gained 90 pounds before they figured out what was wrong. But I'm down 14 now, so at least I know losing with PCOS is possible!

Hi! I have PCOS too. I'm a 35 year old tax assessor from Maine. Love to join the journey with you!

I'm super into PC gaming if you want to friend up. My fav games are Bethesda games and The Witcher series. I used to play a crapton of WoW back in the day, but I broke free of that! Also I've got over 100 pounds to lose, so that's fun.

I'm in!

Tell me about it. Up here in artic Maine where winter lasts into March. I get so tired of the cold, and snow, and ice, and slush, and AHHHHRG. Summer here on the coast certainly makes up for it though!

I'm totally down with this. Should be a challenge tomorrow since Friday is when I usually pick up my weekend beers. Must.... resist... temptation!

Hello from snowy Maine where the walk from the car to the gym is an epic battle of man vs. nature. Do you even know how many layers I have to change out of when I get to the gym? Stupid, stupid winter.

Chunky chicken noodle soup and a big salad with lite honey mustard and croutons!

When I was most depressed, I was at my lowest weight. I just couldn't be bothered to eat. I'd stay in bed all day and the kitchen seemed miles away. I started taking medication to treat my mental health problems and ended up gaining over 100 pounds over the last 2 years. I'm sure it wasn't just the pills, but it seems the…

My college had both a make your own stir fry station and a salad bar so if you didn't like what was one the menu, you could have alternatives.

Switch to decaffeinated tea if it's really a big deal for you. I can't live without my two cups a day personally!

I pulled a muscle trying to wipe my bum.

Gin & diet tonic with a spritz of lime does me just fine. Sometimes I have wine or beer, but I just eat less those days to fit them in.

If I have a crazy craving, I try to eat some baby carrots or snap peas since they're so low in calorie. Usually just having something to chomp on will distract me. Sometimes I tell myself if I still want it tomorrow, I can have whatever it is I'm fixating on. Usually, I don't care the next day. If I'm craving McDonalds,…

I really like Special K cracker chips with some Laughing Cow cheese. Otherwise I stick to fruits and stuff like baby carrots and snap peas. Maybe with a little hummus if I'm feeling fancy.

I have PCOS and I wouldn't say hunger is my problem. I seem to never feel full. Once I start eating, I feel like I could never stop. I have to be crazy vigilant about my portion control, but I'm finally making progress. I think recognizing the problem is half the battle. I know how my PCOS effects me and so I know how to…

One day of a mess-up is just a bump in the road. Keep on trucking and it'll all average out. :)

Also I had lost 90 pounds here in the past, but I gained it back. No excuses here, but I'd like to think I can do it again and so can you!

I weigh daily, but I only log it on Fridays.

I have a Microsoft Band 2. I went back and forth before buying it, but I find it really helpful.. But really it just gives you tons of information, you still have to act upon it.

Sounds like my kind of breakfast! Of course, that's probably what made me rolly-polly in the first place... :P

Best MFP advice of the day!

Dude, make an appointment with your doctor. Could be a number of things or just the way your body works, but only a doctor would know. I had super high heart rates while doing the elliptical and it ended up being a supraventricular tachycardia that I had to go on beta-blockers to control. Don't mess around with your heart.…

I second this! I have so much love for Old Navy jeans. They have a plus-sized section on their website that goes up to 22 and beyond with different cuts of skinny jeans. And don't worry about rocking 'em at that size. Skinny jeans and a tunic type top looks great on anyone. As long as you have personal style, you can look…

I did the exact same thing. I logged everything for a week without changing my eating habits and when I saw the totals, it gave me a right kick in the butt to get started. I gradually started measuring out my coffee cream and then replacing calorie bombs with lighter options. Then it's more of an adjustment to a different…

Craft beers! You drink two or three and it can be more than half of your day's calories. I also have to mix my morning coffee with a measuring tablespoon just so I can keep using my beloved half-and-half.
