Fighting PCOS Naturally

I've already talked about my New Year's resolution... I also decided that I want to make an 'I Want' list for the year. These are things that I hope to incorporate into my life as part of the 'Be a Happier Me' resolution. These are by no means requirements to satisfy my goal. They are simply things that I'd like to see in my life. They do not determine whether I pass or fail. The Happify program I'm a part of has me do tasks like this - Visualizing what success would look like, what I'm doing, what I'm not doing, etc. A lot of them are new habits that I want to form, and I think making a list, printing them out, and posting them all over the house might help just a little :) I Want to... ... drink a glass of apple cider vinegar and lemon water every morning ... do my oil-pulling every morning ... spend more quality time with Hubs ... find a workout routine that I enjoy ... work out at least 3 times a week ... practice at least 15 min ...

Let's talk about 2014.  I'll be 26 this year. That feels weird. Mainly because I know I'm over halfway to being 30. And let's not discuss my lack of success with my 30 before 30 list yet. Hubs will be 27.  Our 5yr wedding anniversary is this year. I'm not sure why, but half decades seem to be more important than other anniversaries. Our 7th year of dating is this year, too.  We're going to walk in the Walk for Hope, hosted by RESOLVE. My cysters and their friends and family are going as well. The Walk for Hope raises awareness for infertility. It's pet-friendly, but I'd have to get Spike leash trained really soon. What are my hopes for 2014? - be a happier me - run a 5k  - lose some weight - get the house organized - have a garage sale - enjoy my life The biggest hurdle to overcome right now is my self-hatred. That's got to change. I'm going to be more focused on completing my Happify tasks, and actually attempt to follow through on old ideas. T...

Holy crap, we're already at the end of this year? Where did the time go? Last year's resolution was to become a MILF. Or at least get my body prepared to start trying to get preggo with a donor in 2014. Yeah, that didn't happen. So I've made the next year's resolutions a little easier. I'm going to focus on becoming a happier me and organize/clean my house. Much less stressful than trying to put a numerical requirement or some awful restrictions on my life. I had hoped that we might be able to move out into a house this coming May, but I don't think that's going to happen, especially with the financial problems we've encountered this year. So I'm going to save that for 2015. It won't kill us to stay in the townhome for another year. In fact, it'll end up being the 2nd longest location that I've stayed in. It is kinda nice to not be moving every year or two. However, I might look into houses this year anyway, because I could get lucky....
