Hi! I was diagnosed with PCOS in March 2008. At that time I weighed 240 pounds. After taking birth control pills and metformin I lost 40 pounds. I lingered at 200 pounds until August 2010. I started losing weight a the end of August 2010 and by March 2011 I was 136 pounds. I seem to bound back and forth between 127 and 134…

WOW! You are an inspiration to all! You went through a lot of medical problems and never gave up on being healthy. Congrats on your hard work and a healthier you!

I am curious myself... I would love to know what to do.

Wow! You all know how to eat right and in a yummy way! You are giving me ideas! I like this one! :happy:

Hi there, I understand what you mean... I feel the EXACT same way.... Job, sleep, the whole list. You can do this! I read your profile, you are beautiful, smart (look at your blog!), you have a very supportive husband... Things are going to turn around. Start going to bed 15 minutes earlier per week. Think about everything…

Congratulations! I am so happy to hear you be proud of yourself and you should be! Hold that head up high, Mister! Let your hair down and celebrate an amazing accomplishment. Shari

What a beautiful bride! Congrats! :flowerforyou:

That is fantastic! You look beautiful. :flowerforyou:

Welcome! Weight loss is scary sometimes... I think because people think that they have to starve themselves or deprive themselves. But, if you are patient and take your time you will be fine. My doctor said that if you start saying that you can't have anything that is good again is just not the way to go. He said,…

Congrats! It's Friday and it is time to celebrate!!!! :happy: :flowerforyou:

That is so pretty! I want property like that.... Dream.... :ohwell:

OUCH!!! :cry: First of all, you are a very strong woman to get up there and exercise.... (I would find a way to be a baby about it... But, I am a spoiled brat :embarassed: ) Second, you better have lost some calories for that nice tumble! FO SHO! :flowerforyou: Try to have a happy Friday Hugs Shari

yea, always weigh yourself dry (dry weight is the best... no water intake, no food intake... ). So, morning weight is best, night weight is also weighing your food intake and bodies normally fluxuate throughout the day.

Don't hassel the Hoff... :laugh: :drinker:

I was thinking that it was your body's natural way of keeping your muscles limber (or what ever you call it) when you exercise... I do not know, I am a nerd and do not know much about anything. :embarassed: I am curious about the scientific reasoning for it... :wink:

They are so cute! I want one... But, our puppy may eat your beautiful puppies... How much are you going to sell them for? I have relatives in NE. :happy:

Max you are a naughty boy! :laugh:

Tam, how did you get that?! That is a super cool flyer. By the way... HAPPY FRIDAY TO YOU AND TO ALL OF YOU GOOD DAY AND NIGHT! :tongue: I am going to have a ball... Ya, right go home, do laundry, watch recorded tv. :laugh:

Sounds yummy! :tongue: Where do you find these recipes?!

STRAWS, STRAWS, STRAWS! Straws is what helped me drink my water. I have these traveling water jugs with the built in straws... It cost me $10.00 at Target, but rubbermaid does not make my favorite water jugs anymore :sad: I love lemon in my water... I hate lemonaid, but I love lemon in my water... No sugar. I have heard…

I am there right with you... All that crap just makes me want to scream. My nieces have this feeling like they are fat and so on because that is all they see is diet ads, you won't be beautiful unless you have this ad and so on. They are 12 and 13! Society is so sad when it comes to that kind of crap... Twiggy celebrities.…

Yea, Shari Lewis and Lamb Chop is an awesome show!!!

Shari Lewis, Lamb Chop, Charley Horse and Hush Puppy! that is better.

Shari Lewis, Lamb Chop, Charley Horse and Hush Puppy!

That's fantastic! Keep up the good, hard work! Congratulations! :flowerforyou: Shari

My little man (4 yrs old) will be Batman... But, if he had it his way he would be about 30 different characters in 1 night. Kids, gotta love them!

I have been curious as well... Wii fit just seems too good to be true. Can someone REALLY get a good workout from Wii? Can someone REALLY loose weight from Wii? Or should I stick with my sweatin to the Oldies?

Cotton candy made at the door! Where do you live, I am so there! :tongue: I will be the one passing out socialism pamphlets with a penny taped to it. :laugh:

YAY!!!!! :happy: That is AWESOME! Congratulations for making 1 of your goals... Time to celebrate a milestone. You go, girl! Shari

Welcome! It is nice to meet you. I have heard of surgery failures before... I am sorry to hear you had such a hard time. You are going to do great. I am new to MFP as well. I have gained a lot of weight due to a syndrome I have had since I was a kid. So, I still have a lot to learn about dieting... I have had success in…
