Tomorrow I'm taking a personal day.  Not too sure how its any different than any other day, I still have chores and make dinner for the family and maybe go to the store, but I just need a me day.  I do plan on taking an actual bath, that'll be nice.  I'll paint my toes.  Wow this is a boring me day.  Oh I'll add those highlights in my hair.

mine is totally weight dependent now last summer I slimmed down and was getting regular periods even though I wasn't on BC (NuvRing btw) but then the weight crept back on and bam no periods for 6 months, came back home and jumped start it, got a period and now I've been off it again and back to normal.

I was not going to "jump" it again, I promised myself. But I had to do something, it had been like 4-6 months.

Losing weight is my #1 struggle! What kind of dieting are you doing?

I'm not dieting so much as just watching what I eat. I'm using the livestrong.com food tracker and it keeps track of how many calories I had and breaks it down into cals, chol, sugar, fiber, protein, fat. Right now I'm just trying to eat less sugar since PCOS makes me insulin resistant even though I'm not diabetic. I think what helps the most besides being aware of what I put in my body is that I've started the Couch to 5k program. Its hard, I'm on week 4 of the 9 week program. I generally have to repeat weeks since I'm not a runner and have a hard time completing it. So I keep at it until I can finish the week's schedule a few times. This is my second week of week 4 and I'll probably have to have a third.

I havent had a soda( which is like crack to me) in like a month and still nothing. I may have to take more drastic measures. Thanks for the site info. :)

I try to drink only a cup (those small 8oz ones) of soda once a week at the movies
