On another note, I was doing some thinking after my blog yesterday and realized that if Flow is on the way there is a VERY good chance she could visit during my walk. I usually get my cramps and cravings the week prior (this week) and the actual visit comes the following Wed. I have never done this before so if any of you have and have advice, PLEASE comment!! I am thinking of stretching my month out, I think I can just start a new pack of pills on Sunday and skip the WEEK. I am not sure if this would make my PMS a week longer or what. I wish I would have thought about this sooner, I hate playing with meds. Any ideas???
This barbie is playing golf today, I am so excited. I have been a closet golfer since I was young but none of my friends enjoy it so I don't get to play much anymore. A couple weeks ago I was asked by my company to represent us in a golf tournament supporting Women Contractors...this really hit home for me so I agreed! I am not at all nervous for the actual golfing, but we are being served lunch and dinner at this thing and that scares me A LOT. Hopefully I can just watch the portions and make some healthy choices, we will see. I won't be around this afternoon but will be checking up on everyone tonight.
Here are my goals for the week:
* Follow the Wendie plan for a second week. (my high point day will fall on Saturday, perfect for the party) Day one Done
* Eat 5 servings fruit and veggies EVERYDAY! I got at least 6 in!
* Drink 100 oz. of water daily. stopped counting at 105 oz.
* Get in at least 1 activity point everyday. Practice round of golf w/sister.
* Get in at least 4 long walks or runs (6-12 miles).
* Use any APs earned above 4 in a day. 4 points earned (walking, carrying clubs, golfing) none used.

I have been told that the first month you try to skip while on the pill you will still have break through bleeding and maybe even still have your period. I've never done it b/c like you I don't like to mess with meds and I don't like to mess with mother nature.
You rocked your goals yesterday! That's awesome!!!
I used to take 3 pill pacs in a row before Seasonale was put out on the market--you only have a "quarterly report" when you take Seasonale. My body is used to it now but you may experience break thru bleeding if you extend yours a week(since your body isn't use to it). I know some don't like to mess with mother nature, but just think only 4 times a year---and I just saw the doc and asked her that very question about it being "not natural" and she had no concerns what so ever....it's just a matter of preference. She also said that by extending your pills for 3 months instead of 3 weeks, it just produces less of the "lining" we girls shed every month....hope this helps.
