It depends on your skin tone and the type of laser you tried. After moving, I went to a place that used the Candela Yag laser instead of the Gentle Lase. Did not have good results with the Yag at all, and the nurse/practitioner actually burned my skin, giving me several dark circles on my legs. One session I had to tell…

Chronic relapsed here, too. In the last 4 years I've gone from 240 to 210 to 240 to 210 to now 270! With lots of smaller ups and downs in between. Whenever I'd reach a low, I'd feel good about myself, and just want a break from having to try. Just wanted to eat what everyone else was eating and not worry.

Thanks for the advice! Yup, I'm a new user. I did take it for a few years in college, but it's been 6 years since I was on it. I stopped taking it in college due to the side effects, and looking back, my last semester of college I just ate complete junk. So there you go!

I'm on the extended release and I'm still having the explosions. I took 500 mg daily the first week, now I'm on 1000 mg daily, next week I go up to 1500 mg daily. Which foods trigger the explosions for everyone?

I began getting laser hair removal in 2006 and it's a lifesaver. I still get it done about once every 6 months, as I still get some hair growth but it's super thin and fine. Prior to 2006 I had to shave my face (especially chin) every morning and I'd have shadow/stubble by the end of the day. I still shav, because I like…

OP, do you have the Rehband knee sleeves? They're great! I have knee pain due to my knee tracking slightly out of place. It's just a dull, chronic, mild ache that I attributed to overuse and being overweight. I've started wearing my knee sleeves for EVERY wod, not just squatting/box jumps, and my pain is almost non…

I relate to this a lot. Being a bigger person with a lot of muscle mass, I'm one of the stronger girls at my box. People know this, and will sometimes give me crap if I'm not lifting as much as they think I should. It's a balancing act. Back in 2012, after 2 months of CrossFit, my back felt off, just a mild pain. I took a…

Hello ladies, I thought I'd chime in and share my experience with Metformin. I began taking it at age 19, 500 mg 4x daily. I took it until I was 22, then stopped due to side effects and what not. During this time, I did not lose weight, but I did not gain weight until my last semester of college when I was binge drinking,…

Shari, 1.8 lbs is great! That's nearly 2 lbs and I think that's the max most people can lose a week without losing muscle. I know those scale fluctuations are annoying, though. Maybe next month avoid the scale for this week and the days surrounding it? Easier said than done, it's so hard to stay away from the scale when…

Hello! My name is Christine and I would like to join this group if it's not too late. I was diagnosed in 2005, took Metformin for a few years then stopped, and now I'm giving it another go. In the past few years, my weight has ranged from a low of 208 to a high of 270. I'm currently at my highest! I'd ultimately like to…
