Try spaghetti squash

That's what I basically do already: I eat dinner around 7 and breakfast around 630-7. Didn't realize that was intermittent fasting! Thanks!

"happy trail" on tummy, hair on face (upper lip, chin, I also had "sideburns")

I am 29, but when i was 14, I had sever pain in my right side. Doctors thought my appendix ruptured, but upon testing, refered me to a Gyno. They did an internal ultrasound, and my ovaries looked like honeycomb. I never had a regular period either, had hair places girls don't like, and had been overweight since 2nd grade.

I have found out that you have to be STRICT while trying to lose weight with PCOS. This is what has helped me lose 19lbs since March 29: First of all I work from 8-5 M-F, have a 9 year old son who is in baseball, football, and karate. I also go to school. With that being said; I wake up at 415 every day, get to the gym…

My goal is to get into lifting as well once I lose some more weight!! I found that Jaime Eason's Live Fit Trainer from BB.com is an AWESOME intro to lifting. I also bought the New Rules of Lifting for Women book that is amazing. Good luck to you!

THIS^^^^ the whole (how racist was that) literally made me LOL!!

You could have developed an allergy to something you are eating.

Optimum Nutrition protein shake at least twice daily, white fish, chicken BREAST (dark meat has more calories/fat....thats why it tastes sooooo good!!) tuna, peanut or almond butter, eggs (boiled for convenience). Good luck!

great job! you look amazing!

Wow, your story is almost identical to mine! Except I'm not married, and am 28. You can do it!!!!

All of you can add me!

My goal is to lose 100lbs and you are an inspiration to me! You look amazing!

Calculate your BMR (google BMR calculator) and that will tell you your daily caloric intake. MFP had my daily caloric intake at 2020, higher than I needed to see results. You should also do cardio + weights. I am 28, 5'5, started out on 03/24/14 weighing 243, and almost a month later weigh in at 232 (I have been overweight…

I joined PF only b/c it was the closest 24 hour gym (I go at 4 in the morning, before my kid wakes up) with reasonable prices. I wish there was a One Life closer to me, with the hours I need so I can take them up on Kettle Bell classes and Zumba. BUT, the PF I go to has friendly employees, its clean, and like I said…

First, if you are not 100% "ready" to be dedicated enough to achieve your goals, then no fitness program will keep your interest. Not trying to sound harsh, it is something I have had to realize myself. I have been "fat" since 2nd grade, my son is 9 and I am now almost as big as I was when I was pregnant (gained what…

Thank you everyone :)

Yes, pure barbell! Sorry for the confusion! I'm getting bored with Jaime Eason, but will complete the program.

How do you customize your calories? I'm relatively new to MFP and need to customize my calories for the day!

Tlapia fillets.....very mild. Easy to cook! I get the big bag of individually portioned fillets (in the frozen section). 108 cals per fillet, I throw creole seasoning on it, cook it on 450* in the oven for about 14 minutes (flipping once) and voila!

That is awesome! My goal is 100lbs as well! What is your diet/exercise routine?

Don't weigh yourself daily. Allow a "cheat" day every once in a while, but with reason!!

I feel like a bonehead, but what does HIIT mean in reference to cardio?! Fellow endomorph btw!

I juiced exclusively for 14 days, lost 16lbs. But gained it all back plus some. Also, I had a migraine for the first 3 days, almost to the point of going to the hospital. I would not juice exclusively again.

You look amazing! 100lbs is my goal! Inspiration you are!
