Hi all

I'm new to this site. We are not ttc at the mo. Have been given Clomid but won't take it until I lose some weight, don't think I could handle being even heavier!!

Good luck with your weight loss

Hi all. Thanks for the welcome. I just wanted to check in and see how everyone is doing. Right now an eating plan is out the window as is exercise. Both of my ear drums are ruptured. I went to the ER Saturday night cause the pain was just intense and then fluid started coming out of my ears so I knew something was really not right. I got put on Keflex, 800mg Motrin, Percocet, and Antivert (for the dizziness and equilibrium problems). I am completely deaf in the left ear right now and have about 65% hearing loss in the right ear. Between that and the pressure in my ears, dizziness, nausea, and the pain and feel pretty bad right now. I can't eat much at all and I can't hardly walk. It will make life pretty interesting for me tomorrow since I have to make an hour and half drive to testify as a witness in court. I have no choice but to go cause I was served and if I don't show up I am in violation of a court order. DH has to stay home and get the kids off to school so I have to drive myself. Other than that I am doing great
I hope everyone is doing ok. I'll check back later to see how everyone is. Have a good day ya'll. TTYL

I just wanted to check in and see how everyone was!

Anyone dropped anymore pounds??

What diet are you currently doing with the weight loss?

What exercise?>

[JigglyBits]

I just mix up cardio with weight training and try to do different stuff on different days. Today I did 20 mins elliptical, 30 mins treadmill and 25 mins strength training (Upper/lower body and abs). Planning to do some Tae Bo tomorrow and 30 mins of Yoga in the evening

Hi everyone! Hope that you are having a productive and healthy week! Welcome to all the newbies posting. Hopefully everyone can find a plan that works for them to get the pounds off.

LookingforHope: I am doing a combination of carb counting and calorie counting at the moment. Before this attempt, the only thing that worked was reducing my carbs below 200g per day. That is not always easy for a carb junky

Hi I'm new here, well sort of. I posted a little here a year or two ago. Anyway, I'm back and I have weight to lose again. I saw this thread and thought I'd join in since I'm not ttc and I have pcos. I have been on my program for 10 days and so far I've lost 8 pounds. I am just eating better (smaller portions), making sure I don't eat for at least 2 hours before bedtime and I get on my treadmill daily. I'm up to an hour on my treadmill. Anyway, hello to all of you!

Great girls!! I've been working on things. Lately my classes having been getting out early which give me some time to get some walking in between classes!! Yesterday was my first day TOTALLY without soda and I feel so much better.

Anyone tried adding Green Tea?

[LookingForHope16]

Just wanted to let you girls know I am still on the water and green tea only kick!

How is everyone?

Hello!

This is my kind of topic! I am determined that in 2007 I am going to drop lots of pounds.... for once I feel focussed on doing it!

I was DX with PCOS back in 2005 and I am also a Type 2 Diabetic!

Looking forward to getting to know some of you!

I am glad I found this link. I am 39, have 2 kids and definitely not TTC! I do need to lose this weight though and am struggling to find the right diet.

[LookingForHope16]

[isenephthys]

hi! i'm relatively new here. i'm re-starting a diet/exercise program but have yet to lose any weight. then again, i'm having a super-hard time getting started...

[irisheyes213]

Welcome to anyone that I have missed. I have been sort of MIA. Partially because January was a complete bust for me. I have gained another 4lbs and am not at all happy about this. It is hard to believe that in September I was 18lbs lighter and I definately feel a difference.

Part of it has been stress eating so I know that I have done some of it to myself but part of it was just my mysterious PCOS body adding weight for whatever reason. BLAH!

I have set an exercise goal for between now and Easter so hopefully that will help and if I can kick my stress eating out of the ballpark I will be good to go!

Hope that everyone else had a better month than me!
