I think we average 250$a month for two adults at this point

My mothers homemade soap And whipped Shea for facial moisturizer (also by my mom) As far as makeup I can live without it all. Too busy to care about painting my face on any sort of regular basis Edit: homemade chap stick! I love that my mother makes soap and creams. Almost every product on the market kills my skin

15 going in 16 My mom bought NE and my older siblings phones so she could keep track of us when we were out with the car lol

I got turned away from a roller coaster because I was too big for the safety harness... I had issues getting the seat belt done up on airplanes - so I would hide the fact it wasnt done up : / When I was 13 my grade 7 teacher told me he "understood" why I wouldnt want to go swimming with my peers. all behind me now!

@lisajames01 LOVE the dark hair (very jealous)

Imho you can get meal replacements that are much cheaper.. So if you really want one just buy them at the store

You are here and you are restarting. That's what means the most! Glad you are doing better and happy journeys!

I just want like 3 bites....jm

Oops I meant June 2012 lol

For a lot of the PCOS sufferers out there - the good news lies in the fact if we can manage to get our weight down - the symptoms are usually controlled.

I have PCOS - and have managed to lose 115lbs I still have a bit more I'd like to lose however I started out small - but before I found out I was pregnant - I worked high intensity workouts about 6 days a week and NET 1400 calories a day. Being that I have a fairly active job and still am over 200lbs - 1400 isnt a whole…

The only reason I could find to limit fruit is if you are diabetic Most fruit is really carby

Go to bed earlier??? I sometimes feel munchies later at night - but having to get up and be up early - I go to bed a LOT earlier and dont have a chance to go through the late night binges

My doctor recommended me only gaining 8-10lbs (which feels rediculous) I lost a bit of weight first trimester (208 down to 199) Now at 24w I am between 207 and 209 So I've either not really gained -or gained 10lbs... LOL

When I was young (talking like kid age) people thought I was older When I was 12 - I could pass for 18 Now that Im in my mid to late 20s people think Im in my early 20s

Im too cheap to fork out cash for lulu stuff.. maybe when im doing losing weight I will treat myself ?

Ha ha its far from cold here. I'm in the most southern part of Canada, there's actually a few states more North than I! And let me reel you this heat is killing me thus year

Im pretty much Heinz 57 to be totally honest most things European, little Aboriginal in there too both my paternal grandparents are newphies (oh boy!)

Feel free to add me : )

i was told not to gain more than 8-10 lbs myself - which I think is unrealistic - however I am doing my best to eat smart and keep active cause I am not gaining back all the weight I lost to get pregnant (I was about 115lbs down at my lowest - 86 since mfp)

Canadian yes - French - non :P

someone guess Austrian for me - not quite! lol

Hey all Im due Oct 31st with baby numero uno Gender is still unspecified since this wiggly monkey didnt want to give up the goods at the 20W ultrasound, however I had to go back a week or so later since they also couldnt get imaging of the heart, face, neck and numerous other things.. So I should get to find the gender…

@laclaire19 french

ymca - assited memeberships you can get for much cheaper depending on financial needs i pay about 27$ a month

We went to Niagara falls, hubby had never been I would have loved to travel thru Europe though if we had the time and money

I love subway I usually get a salad to avoid carbs

I found as much of a 5lb gain - and sometimes took a full week post visitor to lose it all. Some months I wouldnt have a gain at all Drink plenty of water and avoid sodium drenched foods : )

You know what you like. I think as long as you arent rejecting someone and actually saying to them no Im not attracted to you because... Some like fit, thin, fat, muscular, glasses, blonde, brunette - we are all different

Congrats on how far you have come! I am sooooo happy for you ! What a difference! Good luck with the rest of your journey!
