My numbers are hanging out in the 267/268 area. Which is baffling, since for one, i was in the rut for awhile and couldnt get anything to go. And two, shouldnt you gain, or bloat, or retain while building up to the time of month... ?
Anyways im not complaining, just hoping its not a fluke. I havent had time to really focus on this this and last week due to finals and graduation this upcoming weekend.
anyways. Congrats Nat.Jo. on being out of the 270's. Im right there with ya. As well as on the metformin too. (but i havent been so good with it. Im not a fan.. ick )
Congrats to those who have lost and who are working hard too!
Have a good one

Hey Amy,
Yea sounds like we have similar weights and what not, thats pretty cool. Are you taking the metformin because of Metabolic Syndrome. Thats why I am taking it. I wasnt taking the full dosage, but she was really upset that I wasnt, so starting yesterday I began taking full dosage and I feel better, not as moody, very happy actually ..
thanks
I am definitely near your shoes ..
best wishes

Great news!!! I'm so glad you are back, I was getting worried about you!
Yea I knew you were all getting worried, and I am sorry I never spoke up, I was isolating myself, which I am going to try not to do lol I didn't realize I was isolating myself, which is always a bad thing for me to do. Usually means I am in one horrible depression and I was
but I walked about 7 miles today with my new friend Derek. He is so nice. I love the friends I have made of okcupid.com ... I have made three friends. Jay, Derek, and a girl, I have only talked with her twice. But she said she was writing platonically with me. She just said she has been in my shoes as far as weight and still struggles, so she is becoming a friend. ITs nice to have friends to walk with and talk with... I took such a tiring and long walk today lol
thanks for caring hun
always

I believe that my doc perscribed them in relation to PCOS. I might be wrong, but im pretty sure. For that shes got me on metformin and birth control. The birth control im on has made me regular AND helped with the mood. Like.... alot. It was amazing. Maybe it was mental... but something was definatly out of balance.
Im very glad you are feeling better. Those down days are just no fun at all.

What has this world come to. When did the body I want to have become a plus size? LoL. I think the winner of Americas Next Top Model is a size 12 and she's the first Plus Size ANTM.
I would kill to look as good as she does. Her body type is my main goal. Since I know I can never be stick think.
Eh, I suppose the media wants to enforce that no matter what size we are we will be considered Full Figured or Plus Size... unless you can see our ribs and other bones poking out of our skin.
