Did you have an ultrasound yet? That's what I do for a living and that will tell you definitively.

You have to REALLY want this. REALLY REALLY. More than you want chocolate, or a bag of chips, or whatever unhealthy food you may crave. A coworker asked me why I wasn't eating the chocolate that was laying around, and I said because I want to lose weight more than I want that chocolate. You may not be there right now. And…

Ditto what they said. And sometimes I just use the Quick calories to save time.

Carrots and Celery Cheesesticks - sharp cheddar Hard Boiled eggs oranges grapefruit banana pickles cottage cheese Greek yogurt

I've put them on yogurt and oatmeal.

Fitting into the clothes I own! And the mirror!!

Cysts on ovaries are normal. I'm an ultrasound tech and see them all the time. PCOS is really multiple small cysts in your ovaries. Try not to worry. See what the doc says. They will probably order an ultrasound. Let us know!

Sounds delish! Thanks!

Excellent words. I just want to add....you have to love yourself in order to want to change yourself.

Do you have pain in your upper belly on the right side? I'm an ultrasound tech and we scan gallbladders all the time. That's another classic sign of stones. Good luck!!

Wow! You are amazing!

They are jealous or stupid...or both! If you're happy, that's all that matters.

Call me shallow! I want to look good too! Hot in fact! ha! Welcome to MFP! It's a great site with lots of great support! If WE can do it, YOU can do it!

Thanks for the idea! Sounds yummy!!

Skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches....portioned! And delicious!!!

That. There is WAY better pizza out there! Seriously, don't hate yourself...it happens to all of us!

I stopped eating the flavored yogurt when I discovered it had as much sugar as a candy bar! I love Greek Yogurt! I usually add fruit and a little sweetener. I also have made dips from Greek yogurt.....add dill, garlic, onion....whatever you like, and you have a high protein dip for all of your veggies!

Hilarious!! I MAY do this.....let me think about it.....and I'm not even Irish!

Did you gain it overnight? So....you won't lose it overnight. I have to tell myself that ALL the time! Hang in there girl!! :)

I'm 51, and have been on here for awhile, and I love My Fitness Pal. Lots of great people and great advice. I'm down 8 lbs!

Food is only food. It's neither good nor bad. You are neither good nor bad. You ate chocolate. Love yourself! :love:

You have to really analyze what you are putting in your body. What kind of foods are Paleo? What is the Mean Green that you consume? Are you logging any calories? Are you doing any exercising? You are either eating too much or not burning it off in any way. Give us some more details and we can try to help better.

How many servings in this recipe?

Hooray for you and cupcakes!!!! I truly believe this is the link between "diet" and a life long way of eating. Sooooo happy for you!!! :smokin:

I always keep easy things to snack on while I put together some dinner.....carrots or dill pickles....keeps me busy and helping the hunger. But if you are STARVING...you do need to eat more in the afternoon...a high protein snack. A hard boiled egg, a cheese stick. Protein keeps me full longest.

I'm 51 and doing it! Just give yourself time to get into a healthy groove and it will become a piece of cake! I mean....a piece of fruit! ha!

You can even use it to cook and bake with! And an excellent mayo substitute! So MANY things to do with Greek yogurt!!

I think to find your motivation, you have to really ask yourself the reasons you want to lose weight. What makes you think you should lose weight? Do you feel miserable? Do you feel like you look miserable? Are you having health problems that need addressing (diabetes, hypertension)? Only when you really dig deep down to…
