Becoming A Jaw Dropper

b_reed23 · 01-22-2007, 12:39 PM

everyone reacts differently to BC pills...some women gain, some don't..I personally felt like they bloated me, but that may have been the "woman" problems I was having at the time also...now that I've been off them for a few years, I feel better

BoneCrusher · 01-23-2007, 03:24 AM

Hey B?!?!?!? Where ya at? Hope you're sticking to it ... but if ya don't you still need to keep coming around anyway. Sooner or later you will get your groove on if you hang around here long enough.

brazeneye · 01-23-2007, 06:56 PM

I'm still here!

I haven't been posting because I have nothing new yet to report. I'm hoping my system gets used to this medication and I start to see some more progress.

Just got to stick with it and hope for something good to happen!

u still out there??? every day is a result....now, post!

Little Wing · 02-05-2007, 08:27 PM

? c'mon don't give up... all it takes is more good days than bad ones to get ahead of the game.

you still with us?

Bakerboy · 02-11-2007, 09:23 PM

What's up Brazeneye...? Where did you go?

NordicNacho · 02-11-2007, 09:32 PM

Maybe she got snowed in. It gets cold up there on the Tundra.

brazeneye · 02-12-2007, 12:27 PM

Sorry for not updating guys!

I am off the BC pills, so finally I'll be able to see some progress. I was on a high hormone one to fight off my acne (which really wasn't all that bad to begin with). These pills are used only to treat acne and come with a warning, and after doing a lot of research, I decided I definitely needed to get off them.

I am pretty sure if I follow my meal plans properly, lay off the dairy, workout regularly and take my supplements, my skin should be able to take care of itself.

ANYWAYS... BACK NOW, and I'm over this hurdle!

welcome back B ... glad to see you so upbeat and in front of your issues!!!

brazeneye · 02-12-2007, 03:16 PM

You have to be upbeat.. if you're always beating yourself up, you'll always be stuck with a negative outlook, and that never helps you push further

Oh brazeneye where art thou?

brazeneye · 04-16-2007, 01:00 PM

I'm still here!

I am getting my RMR tested next Wednesday. SO EXCITED. Then finally I will know what my maintenance calories/calories to lose weight are. I have been following my meal plans and working out, but I have been maintaining 150lbs. I just don't understand. So this will definitely shed some light on my metabolism.

My only hope is that I won't have to eat under 1000 calories to lose with my damn yo-yo metabolism

BigDyl · 04-16-2007, 01:12 PM

How do you get your RMR tested?

You may need to eat more and exersize to raise your RMR, then lower the cals slightly and try some carb cycling. Could try alot of things.
