Have no fear I am in fact still alive.
My hubby and I have been working, exercising and preparing ourselves to be future parents. No I am not pregnant but if we are to hope to have children we both need to prepare our bodies to be able to handle the riggers of parenthood and really I don't want a baby being the weight I have let myself get to.
My hubby and I have joined weight watchers and will be increasing the amount we exercise. I am 100 lbs heavier than I need to be. I kept my high school weight steady (a 100lbs ago) pretty much until I got married and after marriage well....anyway my ultimate goal is be 100 lbs lighter by next summer which I can do. If, of course, I stick to my guns. Sometimes I want to go back on the HCG diet but I grew tired of my limited food. I would have a great supply of optional foods if I enjoyed eating fish, crab and shrimp but alas I do not and I was stuck with chicken and beef every day and I grew tired of defending the diet itself. It really does make more sense than what people give it credit for. I have been on weight watchers for almost 3 weeks now and have only really lost a pound. Go me.
This is why diets are so discouraging especially for people with PCOS. PCOS makes it really easy to gain weight and hard to lose it. This is another plus to HCG. I lost pretty much a pound a day and I wasn't hungry at all nor did I have any muscle loss and lost 30lbs easy peasy but just with any diet though if you don't change your eating habits after you stop dieting, guess what? You'll gain the weight back. Doesn't matter whether it's HCG or weight watchers.
**sigh**
No...I won't be doing HCG...even though I really want to. I shall stick to weight watchers for now and see how I do. Wish me luck...I'll need it.

Good luck Kim! You can do it!
i've been doing WW for almost 3 months and still have 13 lbs to go. i love the program and it seems to be working for me. The weight comes off slowly but i feel i am learning how to eat better and better. John did not join with me but has lost 10 lbs just by association :D i know you can do this! slow and steady is the key. keep small goals and you will see that it's so exciting to see your body change each week that goes by.
Good luck, Kim!! Losing weight sucks hard.
I miss you!
