      I take great interest in my family. With developing PCOS, I have gained well over 100 lbs, so we are very active in outdoors and horseback riding, along with swimming. My family and I love doing thinkgs together, we cook together and my daughter and I scrapbook and we are always working on our healthy lifestyle. I belive in my heart that I will overcome this!

      Hello, my name is Bridget and I have been on GlucophageXR for about two months now and it has finally gotten better. Do you have a strong craving for sweets? What about having excessive hair growth? I have that and I hate every bit of it. Has the Metformin helped you have any weight loss, what about regular cycles? I had a period that lasted about a month when I started this medication but now I have not had a cycle since. Of course I do not eat right and I do end up missing a dose here and there. i guess I need to get on the ball and start taking these pills the right way. Anyway I hope to hear from you soon.

      Good Morning, Just wanted to send you a hug and my thoughts for the day. Welsh Rune: In this fateful hour, I call upon all Heaven with its power And the sun with its brightness And the snow with its whiteness And the fire with all the strength it hath And the lightning with its rapid wrath And the sea with its deepness And the rocks with their steepness. All these I place, By Heaven's almighty help and grace, Between myself and the powers of darkness. -----------Traditional Navajo Song: The mountains, I become part of it..... The herbs, the ir tree, I become part of it.... The morning mists, the clouds, The gathering waters, I become part of it..... The wilderness, the dewdrops, the pollen, I become part of it. ---------Anonymous Whenever you can, let people know what tradition you are working with. And if they are part of it, show that to them. After all, it makes sense to be interested in and feel respect for what is part of your inheritance. ---------Margaret Mead I hope you have a very good day. Take care of yourself. Sending you hugs. Hugs, Sam

      Hello my friend, Here is a hug and my thoughts for the day. Quench not the Spirit. Despise not prophesying. Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. ----I Thessalonians 5:19-21 It's what we all wanted when we were children-to be loved and accepted exactly as we were then, not when we got taller or thinner or prettier....and we still want it...but we aren't going to get it from other people until we can get it from ourselves. ---------Louise Hay True healing is found in the memory of wholeness -----------------------Deepak Chopra Take very good care of yourself. Sending you hugs. Hugs, Sam

      Breathing in, I calm body and mind. Breathing out, I smile. Dwelling in the present moment. This is the only moment. Present moment. Perfect moment. -------Thich Nhat Hanh When we cannot be real and creative, we cannot discover, explore and complete our stories and thereby grow and develop. We cannot have peace. --------Charles Whitfield, M.D. Take very good care of yourself. I hope you have a great weekend and 4th. Sending you hugs. Hugs, Sam

      When you love, give it everything you've got And when you have reached your limit-- give it more. And forget the pain of it, because as you face your death it is only the love you have given and received that will count. And all the rest-- the accomplishments, the struggles, the fights-- will be forgotten in your reflections. If you have loved well then it will have been worth it. The joy of it will last through the end, but if you have not, death will always come too soon. ---------Elisabeth Kubler-Ross Have a grate day and take very good care of yourself. Sending you hugs. Hugs, Sam
