think I had vanished ????!!!

Hello Angels !!!

Ok, so I'm pretty sure I know what you guys are thinking....."where the hell did she go ??!!"...LOL....I'm sorry....truly I am !! I'm still here, and because this blog is as real as it gets...I'm still struggling.  The weight is where is has been, the 'motivation'...same thing.  I'm trying really hard to get back on track !!
I love so much knowing that you guys are with me on this, and that there are those of you who are on the same page as me.  I love knowing too, that some of you are doing so great on your journey !!!  It inspires me to continue on....I will get there again, I just know it !!!!  I owe it to myself...my husband, and our little girl !!!

If anyone has some insight they'd like to share, I'm all ears !!!! ;)

I am now, going back to making 'favors' for my little girl's 2 yr birthday party this weekend !!
Yeah, that's what my chunky butt needs....pizza, ice cream and lots of cake !!! LOL
That'll help, tremendously !!!!! ;)

Continuing to fight the good fight......

As always....stay focused & celebrate everything !!! ;)

Chat Room !!!!

YAAAY !!!!!  In an effort to make my blog a little more "interactive", and not quite so 'one-sided'....I have found and installed a chat room !!!!  I'm so excited !!!!!
It doesn't require a log in or anything from you, you just pick a 'nickname', so I'll know who I'm talking to, and voila !!  We're chatting away !!!  Whenever I am on the blog, I will sign into the chat, so you'll know I'm there, and we can talk !!
I'm really, really hoping that this will help build a sense of community where we can share, and I can hear more from you !!!  It is a 'private' chat room, only on the blog, but I believe it has the capabilities to do private messaging within the chat....no sure though, will check into that !!!

Oh!, and at the bottom of the page, I've put in a Question/Answer box, where you can leave questions, comments, answers for me and each other !!!  Hope to see ya on there !!!

In the meantime.....come visit me, and Let's talk about it in the Chat Room !!!!! ;)

Hangin In !!!

Some of you may have noticed, (and have been kind enough not to call me on it !!! lol) that I haven't blogged in a bit.  I wish I had some amazingly, staggering news to deliver to you on how it's going...but, I don't.  As far as the weight goes, still sitting right where I was.  And truthfully, I'm ok with it....for now !!
See, when you have PCOS, there are times when your body just digs in its heels, and refuses to budge.  Despite your best efforts, nothing you do SEEMS to make a difference.  And, it's even more frustrating when you're being good, and the scale moves in the wrong direction !!!  Happens all the time.  Just got a reminder from a good friend, that I'm not alone.  She too is gaining and frustrated.  A big hurdle is getting passed that "alone" feeling....once you do, you can draw strength from those who walk with you.  I guess that's true in any life situation, not just losing weight with PCOS.
But, what do you do when your body fights you EVERY step of the way ???  And, when what takes a regular woman 1 year to do what inevitably takes you 3 ???  It's frustrating.  So frustrating.
This is where I am.  Locked in the unending battle with my body.  And, when I break through this "wall", there will be another one, and another.  What I hope to accomplish, is to learn something from each of those "walls", and use it to hopefully make the next one a little easier to break through.  And, I want my Soul Cysters, to know that they aren't alone either, and that we can draw strength from each other, take back control of our bodies and our lives, and feel better than we ever have !!!!
There will be times when we (I) will see a gain....there will be times when we (I) will have looooong plateaus and sit at the same weight for a while.....and my body will resist this process constantly, until I'm able to convince it that this is the better way to go !!!!
I WILL NOT GIVE UP !!!!!!!!  I WILL CONTINUE TO WORK TO FEEL BETTER AND LOOK BETTER, and I WILL EVENTUALLY GET THERE !!!!!
I will do this with God and each of you by my side, and I WILL buy a sexy black dress when I get there !!!!!! LOLOLOL

I am grateful for each of you....and a special note to my PCOS sisters.....YOU are not alone !!! There IS strength in numbers, and I am here if any of you want to talk !!!!

I hope you all have an amazingly blessed Thanksgiving....avoid the bad carbs !! lol....Be kind to one another and yourself, and remember....stay focused and celebrate everything !!! ;)
