Good Article

My mom sent me this link and I thought I'd share it.

The author has dealt with PCOS and it looks like her whole website is a great resource. I haven't been amazing at keeping up with the diet because of our cruise and I actually have slacked off on taking my meds so I'm starting fresh this week and am making a goal not to eat any Valentine's candy this year. Wish me luck!

New Year! New Weight!

So I am hoping to use this blog to help keep me honest and connected to my weight loss this year. Now that I am no longer nursing I have been able to go back on my supplements and medications and motivated to lose the baby weight! Anyone else want to jump on the wagon with me?
I have started monitoring my calories (low glycemic foods) and am consuming 1200 or less a day with at least 4 days of 30 minutes of exercise. I have already lost 5 pounds in a week (mostly water weight I'm sure) and am excited to keep going in the downward direction!
But I also want to be sure I have realistic goals. So I have set the goal to post at least weekly on my progress, good or bad. And to lose 35-40 pounds by June 30th. That breaks down to about 1.5lbs a week. Send me your empowering thoughts!
