My plan is to stay as close to my calorie goal as possible and try to keep my macros close to the recommended values. I will fill up on healthy flavorful foods to help curb cravings and temptation. I am training for a 5k that I am running on September 24th, so I plan to run 3 times per week for about a half hour each time. I will gradually work in more exercises. I don't want to put too much pressure on myself in the beginning and then get fizzled out. I also have increased my water intake. I just started on Thursday and as of Saturday I have lost 1.4 lbs. I know that this is going to be a challenge since I will have to lose about 2.5 lbs per week. Thanksgiving is going to be very difficult!

I plan to drink lots of water, reduce my carbs, eat more protein, veggies and fruit.I was diagnosed with PCOS in August and I'm doing 30% carbs, 40% protein and 30% fat, recommended for PCOS. I am 5'2 and currently weigh 190. I plan to walk daily and to do Leslie Sansone's Walk Away the Pounds and some Tae Bo- both on Utube.

Hey @tuffgirl19

I have PCOS too and am also 5'2". I haven't weighed myself in a while because it was over 200 last time and I just didn't want to know. Haha. I've been trying to eat clean for about a month now, but I'm finding it hard when I'm on the go. I haven't heard of this pcos diet that you are on. Any advice would be appreciated very much! Feel free to add me! I'm new to MFP, but I plan to start keeping up with it more! Thank you!

I would like to join too - 30lb by Christmas gives me 15 weeks! My plan is to stick to my calories as much as possible, walk 10000 steps every day and work out 5 times a week for minimum 30 mins - swimming twice, exercise bike once and dvd (30 Day Shred or similar) twice. Good luck everyone!

autumnanjel

Tgordon88, with PCOS the best thing to do is to avoid simple carbs. The worst offenders are white foods like white rice, bread, and potatoes. Good luck!

NicoleDarling00

I'm down! I'm 5'5 and 165 lbs. I'd like to get to 145 by Christmas, or at least 150! My plan is to follow MFP and try to take the active route throughout the day. Being in nursing school makes it kind of hard to find exercise time!

Katie_Y89

I'm 5'3 and looking to lose 30 lbs by December as well.

JJBerk

I'm also looking to be down 30 by Christmas (28 to go). I started at 255, 5/1/16, and am down to 228. I am STUCK and it sucks. I'm eating less (lots of veggies, lean protein), drinking less (wine), drinking more (water), and moving more. Riding, walking, swimming 5-6 times a week for an hour. Working toward my first (walking) 10K in November, and my first Tri in the spring. Include me in the group! I need all the help/cheerleading I can get.

spidergirll

I'm in! Group effort. I've never posted / joined anything on MFP. First time scrolling through feeds, looking for motivation. I'm fantastic at being great for 2 months.... and then half-assing it for 2 months, so I keep re-gaining what I've worked so hard to burn off. Group-effort motivation sounds awesome. I'm 38yr old, 160 and have a goal of 140.... Hmmm, it's kinda like a Christmas/New Years gift to ourselves, right?!

MountainMamaNB

I am interestex in joining too. Starting back here after a 6 month break. Lost 45 a2 yrs ago and am up by 25 of that around 165. Would love to hit 140 by end of the year. I am 5'2" and moderately active.
