My weight loss journey and diet

As I continue my weight‑loss journey, I decided to grab a few new tools to keep things fun and challenging. I’m still calorie‑counting using my NetDiary app, which tracks my calories, exercise, steps, and overall progress. It’s been a solid tool for staying consistent, especially when you’re on a weight‑loss plan or any kind of structured diet.

On top of that, I deal with PCOS and adenomyosis — both of which make losing weight a lot harder than it should be. So anything that helps me stay active, motivated, and gentle with my body is a win.

I picked up a stepper because it’s simple, effective, and something I can use anytime. It gets my legs moving and really works my lower body in a way that feels good, not overwhelming.

I also grabbed a pedal exerciser with 12 different modes — and let me tell you, it definitely gives me a challenge. The best part is that I can use it while I’m working at my computer or sitting at my desk, so I’m staying active even on busy days.

And because I’ve always wanted one, I finally ordered a weighted hula hoop. I’m excited to try it out and add something playful to my routine.

Oh, and I couldn’t resist getting a vibration plate too. It’s great for circulation, warm‑ups, and just adding a little extra boost to my workouts.

Little steps, little tools, steady progress — and even with PCOS and adenomyosis trying to slow me down, I’m proud of where I’m heading.

Glasses Shop

 

Let me start by saying, I love my glasses I got from glassesshop.com.  There was a lot of reviews on how bad they are and how some glasses are cheaply made and everything else but I love mine. Their glasses can take up 9-19 days to deliver. I ordered them on March 9th and got them March 19th.

These glasses are a little bigger than I expected them to be but I love them. They fit so well, I can see out of them and they are adorable! I also got 3 clip on sunglasses because that is exactly what I wanted. I wanted some kind of sunglasses because being outside in the spring and summer time it is blinding. 

 

My husband got these and got 5 different clip on lenses. He loves his because he has blue light protection on them since he works remotely and stares at a screen all day he needed something. His other ones did not have blue light protection on them and it ended up hurting his head because of it.

 I got both of these pair for only $93.96.  There was a sale going on which took $34.41 off of it. There is also a buy one get one sale happening now which ends in 3 days 12 hours and 49 minutes as of 2:10 3-19-2026. 

Stop by and check them out. They are actually worth it!  They do have actual sunglasses too along with glasses for kids. 

 

 

 

PCOS and adenomyosis Symptoms and Supplements to help

PCOS and adenomyosis is no joke. It makes things a lot harder especially insulin resistance, weight gain and hormone imbalance and changes and facial hair growth, the insomnia, the doom feeling like you done something wrong, the depression, the anxiety, the always hungry or eating a little feeling full and coming back to eat again later, the missing periods or the heavy periods, real bad period cramps.  Both of these are the worst and having both of them are a challenge. 

 My doctors have not helped me with any of it nor prescribed me anything for it. Yes I had surgery for the adenomyosis.They burned and scraped out what they could in hopes they got it all and it didn't go deeper into the walls in which I may have to have a second surgery for  but they did not give me anything for the facial hair, the weight gain and the other things that comes with it including the hormone imbalance.  

(Adenomyosis is where the tissue does not shed correctly and it grows inside of the uterus walls making it heavy and difficult for periods. It can also stop periods and if you have one it can make it extremely painful to the point you feel like you are dying. You can also have heavy bleeding and it feels like your uterus can fall out and cause a lot of pelvic pressure and pain.)

 I decided to take it in my own hands and take supplements for i and it helped a lot. I do not have bad period cramps like I did even though I had an albation, I still get period cramps and they were bad but not as bad as normal. I could handle these. 

 I currently take Myo Inositol 16-N-1 Supplement, which has D-Chiro Inositol, Folate, DIM, Vitamin D3, B12, K2, Chromium, Bioperine, Ceylon Cinnamon, Zinc, Ashwagandha, Chasteberry, Magnesium, Berberine in which I feel a lot better. My moods are better, my anxiety went down, stress went down, I no longer have an appetite so when I eat I feel full and no longer want to eat or snack. It also supports the overaies and reproduction health which is something I wanted since I have PCOS.

 My sleep is way better and I get good sleep and wake up in a better mood. Everything feels great taking it.

 I also take a 15-N- 1 GLP-1 Supplement Natural Activator Formula  which is a GLP1 for Women & Men, with Probiotic, Hops, Green Tea for Energy, Gut Health, Hunger & Metabolism Support

  along with fish oil omega 3 to help balance and help with the stomach ache and other flutters that you can get from it.

All of these work hand in hand and covers pretty much every part of the body that it needs to cover from balancing hormones, to helping decrease appitie, helping with energy, sleep and metabolism along with PCOS symptoms. 

My OBGYN said it was going to be harder for me to lose weight because I have the odds working against me.

 I brought it up to my primary and he told me that there's nothing they can do for it but walk.

 I currently calorie count and already walk but apparently what I was doing was not good enough.

So I decided to buy a stepper, a vibration plate and a weighted hula hoop hoping that would also help me with losing weight. I already had a peddler but I wanted something else that I could use to move my whole body also. 

 I weigh in between 229-233 sometimes because the weight goes up and down and I bloat bad but taking the supplements helps with that also which is good. My highest weight was 240 which is a lot for me but other than that, I just wanted others to know that they are not alone and there are a few ways to combat it if needed. 

One Blade Razors

If you are like me, facial hair is a pain. Another pain is trying to find something to get rid of them.

 Razors suck and pull but I finally found one that does not pull and does an amazing job. It is the One Blade Razors.

 One blade razors are pretty much for every part of the body. It comes with attachments for different parts. It is worth the money! I love it. Their blades also have an icon on the blades when it's time to change them which is nice so you don't use a dull blade. The blades are also suppose to last up to 4 months.

 I got tired of my hormones from pcos and adenomyosis growing my facial hair and doctors not doing anything about it so I let it grow out to a point and decided to shave it off and wanted to give this razor a shot and it works great. No hair pulls, no knicks no nothing but a smooth face and no more facial hair.

This razor can go forward or backwards so you do not have to keep picking it up and adjusting. Perfect for thick hair and pubes also. 

It takes about 8 hours to fully charge unfortunately but after that, it lasts for 30-90 minutes of continuous use. 

Perfect for faces and body and worth the money!

Rebates.com

 I highly do not recommend rebates.com. you will go through hoops of you sign up for their $3 trial. 

There is no way for you to cancel it or delete your account without going through support. It also does not show that you are in a trial or your subscription but yet it steady tries to charge you.

 I have reached out twice trying to cancel it. I even put a stop payment on PayPal because there way for me to cancel it on my side. 

It is ridiculous charging for a rebate site when if you use capital one shopping or ratuken you get it back anyways without charge.

The way they get you is if you start a trial you'll get 20 bucks. The trial is 3 for so many days then 19.99 a month if you did not research you would not have known it. 

I have been all over the site looking for how to cancel and how to delete and there was no way to know unless you Google. This is a fraud and a scam, STAY AWAY from it.

Charbroil 28" 2 burner griddle is worth it!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 If you are looking for a griddle I highly recommend this charbroil 28" 2 burner propane griddle with cart! It is worth it and cooks food quickly! This does not allow the food to taste like propane and I love this because our other grill makes  the food taste like propane and it gives me a headache.

The steak however did get a little chewy because when we put it on the grill it was cooking quickly and it does not even take up a lot of propane. We bought a propane regulator to see how much we use and the tank is still almost full after cooking 2 family packs of burgers, hotdogs, steak, chicken, a family pack of fajita chicken, sauteing mushrooms and onions. 

The chicken however did get stuck to the grill because there was not enough oil so be sure to get a squirt bottle of oil and water to keep on hand for this reason. The water will also allow you to clean the top to put something else on it but everything else cooked great. 

 

However this grill does not come with a top so we ended up getting a grill cover for it. 

 

This grill also does not take up a lot of room. We have it sitting on our covered porch and used it that way and there was no issues. 

 

To season it we used the black stone cast iron griddle seasoning. 

 

This griddle is worth it because it cooks everything in about 10-20 minutes unlike charcoal and you can put more on int because the top is 28".
