cheers hun xxx

You look awesome, ems!! Congrats on your success so far!

checking in -- ok, switch gears to damage control! Took car into shop, waited forever, got all hungry and blood sugar low, had a soda without realizing how much sugar is in a mountain dew throwback (44 g sugar!) and that led to a headache... I'm going to go over carbs since there's still the whole rest of the day to go. I'm just hoping to keep it at maintain today.

ETA: Managed to reel it back... but def. not going into car places any more without bringing a snack of my own! Lesson learned.

thanks hun xx

astrophe- OUCH!!!

ems- HOT MOMMA!!

cheers sms im not a momma as of yet hehe maybe one day though fingers crossed hehe xxx

Light bleeding has started!! Yay, seems the Provera worked. Most women would call me crazy for being excited over getting my period, but it has been 18 months!!

Also, I am on day 3 of taking B12, and while it's too soon to know for sure if it's helping, I am in the least amount of pain I've been in for a month, and while I still have the bruises I already had, no new ones have shown up so far. I'm hoping it keeps getting better!!

I hope everyone else is having a good day.

I'm gonna whine for a sec...
August got derailed off the bat! I spent Sunday night into Monday in the hospital. I am currently on bedrest. Grrr. I go to doctor today and hopefully will be released and can at least be active even if I can't work out yet. I have eaten okay considering but I am doubling down efforts starting today and going with fewer than 20 carbs per day since i wasnt seeing results with 50 or less.
Good luck to everyone!

why were u in hospital? x

I went because of abdominal pain. They thought it was my appendix. It wasn't. Cysts, maybe a ruptured one and an infection. They aren't 100% sure what was going on but both ovaries were packed with cysts. I'm used to cysts but apparently this is pretty bad. I will, hopefully, know more later today!

Who's here this month?
Me! I'm new so hope it's ok to join you all?

How are you?
Feeling positive at the moment. I've been putting off dieting becasue my head wasn't in the right place but I feel like I'm in the zome at the moment

What are you working on?
Meeting my first mini goal of 7lbs off by the time my eldest son goes back to school on the 5th of September.

How was last month?
Well, I wasn't dieting last month and in truth I felt very down about myself and my weight etc

How's your PCOS management going?
I hope that by getting my weight management under control I will be able to get my PCOS more under control. My PCOS is heavily linked with my weight (excuse the pun!)

* Who's here this month?
I am! Just back from vacation (well, I've been back for couple of weeks but didn't get back to 3fc till today :P)

* How are you?
I'm feeling good about this month & inspired after some time off.

* What are you working on?
Weight loss & pcos management.
Getting back on track with exercise & diet.

* How was last month?
Was ok, didn't go much off track during vacation. I actually did pretty good considering that I had no option but to eat off the hotel menus. Breakfast was mostly fruits and some protein, lunch is usually a salad and dinner soup. I did some yoga, swam a lot and did a lot of walking.

* How's your PCOS management going?
Since going off Actos I noticed that my cycles are longer now, around 30-32 days vs 28 days when on Actos. My periods are longer too, were usually 5-6 days and now almost 8 days. I'm not worried because at least I am getting my periods!
Facial hair is becoming a problem ever since I went off bcps, I've been threading for a while but I'm considering getting laser done since I've done it before and showed some good results.

Nest, sorry for your recent health problems and hospital visit, I hope you're feeling better!

--

My period continues; it hasn't been heavy, but I had light bleeding most of Thursday. I don't think I had ever experienced cramps before -- how do the normal chicks handle this once a month?! lol. It's great and horrible all at once, but I am just really glad the Provera worked so I can go from here.

Leg symptoms seem to be better every day I take B12 which is a relief; almost no pain today!! I just hope it isn't a coincidence so I can finally get better after 6 months!!

sorry to hear that it soundsnasty are they goingtoremovethem? x
