I had 4 miscarriages before my first son, then had my first son, and had toxemia and a c-section, then 4 more miscarriages, then an ectopic pregnancy. Although they didn't give me a real diagnosis, they told me that I'd never have any more children.....then I had two more healthy boys. My youngest is graduating from high school this year, so this was awhile back. I feel very grateful for my beautiful healthy sons.

A very dear friend of mine from high school was also told she would probably never conceive do to endometriosis, then got pregnant at age 41!!!....and had a beautiful healthy daughter.

I know it's almost impossible when you want to have a baby, but try to relax. Both my friend and I had actually given up when we became pregnant, and I think it's because we weren't trying and were more relaxed about it. If you need an ear just holler!!

Hello, Amy! Thank you for the advice. My doctor did give me a caloric value to stay under, so I will see what I can do with that.

I love your different goals for different weights. What a lovely idea to keep motivated. I hope you don't mind but I think I will borrow it. I need that kind of motivation, and gifts for myself because of weight loss might just do the trick!

I am glad you are back Amy! I am starting to feel like the lone low carber! How have things been going?

Hi,thanks for adding me! I see we are close the same weight right now. Hope we end up on the same BL team. :) I could use a buddy with similiar goals for some motivation.

I know what you mean about gardening late...we started late LAST year and didn't get very good crops. This year started about a month earlier and so far it's good. Gotta be careful not to over water too, that was an issue last year I think.

I keep trying carrots with NO LUCK!...not sure what I am doing wrong. Trying celery this year and it looks good so far! Planted a salad mix that no one cares for though, not sure what to do with that now other than add it to store bought mixes that we like to use it up. Maybe I just cut it all and bring it to work for the gang here? hahaha

Day 2- The Feel Good Diet

The Dr. recommended Insulin resistance diet was going OK. I was not feeling good, tired, not feeling like working out...absolutely starving after I did, so I was feeling like giving up. I started to re-read the book, trying to figure out what I was doing wrong. I found the author had written a second book for people just like me...The Feel Good Diet. It has the same linking and balancing system, but adds seritonin boosting snacks. I am trying it out. I did pretty good yesterday, until the evenin… Continue

Summer is here NOW!

I have been very frustrated with my non-weightloss. This isn't easy for me. I am trying...and looking for someone to try along too. DH and I decided to go back to the reproductive endocrinologist to try to get pregnant again. It has been 18 months since we lost our Autumn and no successful pregnancy has happened. We have tried several treatments, but no luck. I am hoping that this will work. I am working on eating right (low carb- higher protein) and trying to get myself to the gym, now that sch… Continue

Making the switch.

I started a new blog about weightloss... when I remembered I could blog here. Plus get inspiration and tips from others instead of doing in basically alone (my sister reads my blog)... so I am switching it up. Thanks to Krisit's great WW leader, I have been inspired to go the "extra degree"

So...
Now...

It is a new week, a new month... and candy season is over (for now). I am planning to cook more this week since we don't have a lot of money to be going out... it is better for me and the famil… Continue

new tracking program

http://www.livestrong.com/thedailyplate/

I like to journal points... but I need to keep tabs on my sugar, carbs and protien... so this website breaks it down.

It is great!
