Ooh I hate hormonal skin changes like that! rolleyes I'm all broken out on my face now, I think from starting Zoloft for a while, quitting it a while, and then starting again. I remember my best friend talking about how she's gotten on some kind of 3 month pill where she only has cycles every 3 months now, but they make her break out really badly too. I've had pimples since I was 13, but right now I have 6 pretty bad ones, and normally it's 1 or 2.

No updates in here for a while! How are we all doing on our health goals? Has anyone made any new years resolutions?

I'm still fat.. and getting bigger!

No resolutions here... just need to take care of everything.If I made resolutions, my list would be too long. 3nodding

i've given up with not taking the pill, started back on it this week, my skin is still really bad 10 months after coming off it and my periods are all over the place, so i think i'll stick with taking it just to keep everything on an even keel, i don't need all this messing about! neutral

confused So Poppy, are the side effects of the pill better than the problems of not being on it then? For me, if the problems of side effects of medications are about the same as the problems of not being on it, I'll choose not to be on any meds.

Bipper, if I truly made a resolutions list, it would be too long too, and then it would be hard to work on anything! Maybe choose one or two things for this year, and save the rest for another year? 3nodding

But speaking of which, I didn't make any resolutions this year either... stressed

i didn't have any side effects when i was taking it.
i just came off it because i'd been taking it for 8 years and felt i needed a break, but my body seemed to think otherwise!

Well that's good, no bad side effects! When I was on it, I had weight gain (most obviously in my face) and reduced libido, and I've heard of women who take the pill for a long time winding up with liver problems. confused

I remember a comment from someone that they didn't really want to join a fitness center and be the only overweight person in a gym full of buff and athletic people. Well, yesterday when I was at our fitness center, I thought about how about 80% of the people in there are women over 50 who are wanting to do good stuff for their health. Then there are a couple older guys in there, same reason, and then maybe 1 or 2 "big" guys who are really bulky and trying to add to their "bulk" I guess (but they're not at all cut or good looking even imo), and a few times I've seen a younger woman in her 20's or 30's who is obviously in there to lose weight. Yesterday was the first day I saw a really healthy looking woman in there with bulging calf muscles running fast on the treadmill like a gazelle! It surprised me so much I had to double-take. I think anybody who goes in there is applauded for their efforts towards good health, and people respect each other no matter their reasons for joining. And it's not like people go in there to look good, because we're all in sweats and t-shirts with our hair up! LOL

Get a free healthy snack sent to you by visiting kashi dot com!! I just did, and just answered a little quiz and didn't even have to send in a real snack to exchange...

(I know people never check in here anymore, and I don't know how long the offer goes for, so I'm gonna link to this from out there in the main forum!) 3nodding
