A question for the ladies

I sometimes have really horrid periods and bleed alot so whenever that Happens I usually just sleep and eat less.

I try to keep up with exercising but sometimes it can be hard. I get super crappy and tired and sleep most of the time im on my period if im not at work.

i know what you mean, sometimes I skip a couple of workouts if Ive got bad period pain and do something gentle instead but I always try to stick to the healthy eating and avoid too much salt. You're doing great, keep on with that shred, you can do it!

I don't take off during that time. I still work out just not as intense. I don't want to lose my mo-jo. I find that I feel much better when I work out during that time. It also keeps me from cramping as much. I drink more water that week as I tend to retain quite a bit. I ABSOLUTLEY DO NOT get on the scales that week. Talk about a motivation blocker since I gain about 3-5 pounds that week. Don't feel guilty. Just pick up on your day 4 with 30DS and keep rockin'! It's not how many times you fall, it's how many times you get back up. Don't look back. You will probably see that it didn't even set you back. Remember one day at a time.

For me it depends. I recently was diagnosed with PCOS and hadn't had normal cycle in just about over 6 months. the Last two months since getting regular have been really bad. I hurt and pretty much had a week long migraine. It was the worst. I got it again last week and I was determined to work through it.

I feel like exercising every day actually helped control the pain. I only took it slightly easier one day and that was was weight training day (first really hard one in months) and I just couldn't push myself very hard. It might have been a fluke month. Maybe next month will be really bad again and I won't be able to deal but if its like this month I'll probably keep pushing through my C35K.. Next month I plan to be on Insanity so well see if that holds true.
