I am not on those, so honestly I can not tell you from personal experience. I have been prescribed HRT from the endocrinologist I saw a couple months ago. I started the testim cream 1% and have been waiting till I got my period to start the yasmin pill. But my family dr, told me on Monday to...

Also wanted to mention that I found out another fitness friend has this. She actually had one burst and had to have a operation. She has been to specialists as well. They figure that it might have happened because of her low body fat levels for so long. Her and I have similar symptoms. We both...

I have a blog that I have set up to track my progress over the last few years. Anyways, I did a post about this. Here it is. SO I thought I would share this with everyone because when bad things happen in our lives we usually feel alone. I am hoping that if anyone else has this that they know...

I am currently dieting for a show and I am eating 1600 cals on non workout days and 2100 on workout days. So I think you should be eating more carbs and food. I guess thought that I am one of the fortunate few that have this disorder that is not obese or gaining alot of fat. I found out my...

Just a note: I can diet to contest eating whole grain bread. Everybody responds different. A lot of people get bloated from it. I love that I can eat 1 slice vs 1/4 cup of whole grain rice. It is more filling. Really it is about trying different diets and seeing what works best for YOUR body...

SO another week and I lost 1.2 pds of fat. :) I have about 7-8pds more to go for contest and 11 weeks. My body usually looses about 1/2 pd a week so things will bottom out soon i am sure, but i am very happy with this diet.

I noticed I put 1 cup shredded carrots for the chocolate banana muffins, don't use carrots :) Replace that with 1 banana. Also, prozoo, I don't use any milk. I find that the muffins are moist enough :) I love the wheat bran in them, it helps to maintain the moisture, I tried with only oats and...
