So I've never missed a pap since 19 (almost 40). Never had anything come back as abnormal. My most recent was in October where I bled significantly just from the test. I think it even took the dr by surprise. Anyway, they had to redo the test and he was much more careful inserting the...

Here's the deal: feel free to weigh in on any part of this :D I want to lose about 60 pounds (yes, I need to). I've started (3 days in) a program where you have 3 protein shakes (can add fruits as well) per day and 2 lean cuisine type entrees. In addition, you add 5 servings of fruits and...

How would the following smoothie fit in to a weight loss plan, if at all? I'm worried the carb content is too high. 1 cup of V-8 juice, lower sugar and 50 cal) handul of strawberries handful of blueberries 1 scoop egg white protein powder tsp of cinnamon 1/8 tsp cayenne pepper 2 tbsp...

I know it's early but do we have one yet? I do so much better when I have something structured to follow.

I'm looking for a GOOD self tanner and after getting a spray tan last week that left my feet and hands orange because the spray settled there :mad:, I find myself STILL looking. I'm also worried about all those chemicals. Anyway, I did some reading and found a product called safe tan that...

If so, which one? I used to but stopped because you see so much saying we don't need one. Now I'm starting to wonder. Also, has anyone has success with Armour thyroid? Thanks and hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!

I just got Cathe's new DVD's today and was wondering if anyone has created a rotation using the STS total body workout and Insanity? I really like Insanity and was getting some good results (mainly abs) but felt weird not doing any weight training. I finished the first month and then my...

So am I the only who has to take breaks during the warm up?

I was using an endo in NYC but he didn't test the T3 or T4 and only prescribed Synthroid so I found a GP in my area that comes highly recommended. Will see him tomorrow. Anyway, I know Hashimoto's is an autoimmune disease which cause hypothyroidism, but what else does? I'm having a hard time...

Well the first thing listed is that hair loss may occur during the first few months. Did anyone who was NOT already evperiencing and increase in shedding have this happen? That SUCKS! I can't lose much more. Also, I'm on 50mcg. Is that a lot? I'm FREAKED!

What are we rehearsing???? I've been out of the loop!!!!

Hi all. I've been off the forum awhile due to work but have always felt this is a good place to come for info so here I am. I hope everyone is doing well. Several mos ago, I found out my thyroid was slowing down. My TSH was 2.2 which was creeping up for me as it had been below 2.0. I was...

....Cathe doesn't just shut this forum down. I feel bad for her if she read this stuff because though I can't speak for her, I can only imagine how she feels watching something she cares deeply about and has created for US, being torn apart. I mean really people...WHY does there always have to...

My workouts have been less than optimal lately. It's kind of hit and miss. I'll be starting the STS/ cardio 3 month rotation for the 3rd time next Monday. I'll get started and MIGHT make it through week 1 before something happens. I try to get up at 5am and work out but it's so easy to talk...

I was reading up on this but wanted some actual experiences as well. I'm thinking of adding this to my supplement list because I'm currently taking 2 medications, one for hormones and one for insulin resistance and am afraid I may have to begin antibiotics again for Lyme. Anyway, That's A LOT...

This is probably a stupid ? but.....everything I have read says to give up the obvious things (breads, cakes, cookies, pasta, etc.). But it also says you have to really read labels. I looked at a few things in the pantry I already have, such as chilli and soup, and nothing said the actual word...

I've been reading some past posts on gluten FREE diets but was wondering....what do you all think would be the best way to just cut back? No bread or pasta? (which we're supposed to be having tonight :rolleyes:) It's the other stuff that gets me: soups, salad dressings (I like balsamic...

Nevermind...thanks to everyone who responded initially.

Anyone know when the new season starts? Just a little impatient.

Does anyone know the best kind? I'm tired of buying bottled water and am thinking about getting a filter. Also, what's up with these picthers you can buy that filter as you pour?
