Fat Ass Friday (on Saturday!)

Ok, so I'm a day late, but better late than never! I decided that I wanted to start participating in a blog link up called Fat Ass Friday on Brandy's blog, You Don't Know.



Starting weight: 233
Current weight: 233
Weight +GAIN / -LOSS this week: +0.0
Total weight lost: 0

In all honesty, I was dreading my first weigh in, because at the end of the last Soul Cyster's Challenge, I weighted 235.8, and I haven't been any lower than that in 2 months. Even with diet changes and my attempts to workout, I gained weight. Well, to my surprise, I have finally lost weight! And I'm super excited about it, because I ate my favorite munchie food last night - Salsa Verde Doritos and all natural sour cream. And when I start eating it, I eat a lot.

I also decided that even though I have technically lost over 25 pounds since I started in Nov 2010, I wanted to start with a fresh weight for FAF.

If you want to join up with us, head over to Brandy's blog!

  1. Hi Lynee, I noticed I am almost twice your age, but I loved your 101 and there are sooo many items I haven't done yet, but still working on it :) As far as I could read you are very brave. I am struggling with weight for many years (I am about 180 pounds and 5")and I know how hard it is, especially together with sicknesses. I believe that you will be successful and you will be a great Mom some day. I waited until I was 35 now I have a six year old princess and I am sure that you will have the same happiness some day, don't lose hope. Best wishes and good luck. Greetings from the other end of the world!"http://beautiesinlife.blogspot.com"

  3. Hey! I'm a friend of Brady's. I saw your name on her page and wanted to say hi. I also have PCOS and it sucks. Losing weight has been a struggle for me for quite some time. I've weighted the same weight (give or take 5 pounds) for a year even though I work out A LOT. Tell me what you know about losing weight with PCOS?

  4. Thanks so much for all of the support! I really appreciate it.

    Impulsive Addict - I know a LOT about losing weight with PCOS. I'm in the process of writing a really long blog about it, but I'm not sure how long it will take. It really depends on your different PCOS symptoms. I'd love to talk to you more about it, though, in the interim. Feel free to email me at lovergirl666(at)gmail(dot)com and we can talk more!

My First Giveaway!

My last post was about my decision to start a bakery. I'm very excited about it, and have been getting some fantastic reviews from my taste testers! My menu is small right now, but I am continually working on new recipes to expand it. I'm currently attempting to make a really good gluten free sandwich bread that doesn't have corn, potato, white rice, or soy in it. I hope to have it done by opening day, Nov 1. I know it's weird to open on a Tuesday, but I plan to be very busy celebrating our 2 year wedding anniversary on Halloween by scaring little kids :) I figured one of the best ways to advertise the bakery was to have a blog giveaway. So that's exactly what I'm doing! One lucky reader will receive a $20 gift certificate to I Can't Believe It's Good For Me. The giveaway is open until midnight, Oct. 31. The winner will be chosen by random.org and announced on Nov 1. Here are the rules: 1 - You must complete the mandatory entry. 2 - Post each entr...

Cortisol and Leptin...

Photo credit I feel so run down. I felt like this most of last week, and ended up taking 3 days off work due to it. This weekend was better - We went to Houston. We spent several hours enjoying the Downtown Aquarium on Saturday, and I enjoyed my PCOS symposium on Sunday. But as soon as I got in the car to head home, this feeling came back. It was so bad that I tossed my cookies less than an hour after we got on the road. This was definitely not from being car sick. I don't get car sick. I was tired all evening, had stupid issues with my homework, and finally went to be at 2-2:30. I realize that was late, and it could explain why I'm tired, but it doesn't explain the run-down, crappy feeling. I got plenty of sleep last week and still felt this way. I think it could be a cortisol issue. I have high cortisol levels. I know I haven't checked with a doctor, but from the information I received at the PCOS symposium, as well as years of research, it fits. I did some more re...

Spend a few moments Happifying your life!

Several months ago I was given the opportunity to beta test a new program called Happify . It's designed to help you become happier with your life, and has plenty of studies to back up their science. I've been using it, although not as faithfully as I should. But I really have enjoyed testing out a lot of the different tracks to choose from. This week,   Happify  ent out of beta testing and is now open to the public. There are a lot of free tracks you can choose from, as well as some others you can get by upgrading to a paid membership. I recommend   Happify  o everyone I know that needs a little pick me up from day to day. It has been helping me find my way towards satisfaction with myself and my life the way it is. It has also helped me to expand my horizons and learn how to be even happier. It's a great program. Currently I'm working on the paid track 'Get Motivated to Get Fit'. Right now it's exactly what I need - a way to focus on my health without ...
