Any PCOSers want to join me in trying to lose 40# in 4 months. If you don't have that much to lose you can still join the course of 10# in 1 month and so on......

    I want to join but I'll be a bit conservative so I won't be too discouraged. I'll go for 5 in a month.

    SO IN! I am really needing a bump to keep going now that I am half way to my goal (45lbs total loss). PCOS is kicking my *kitten* (mentally I think more than physically) and knowing that it just takes a bit more effort and that I can (and obviously have) get over that hurdle.

    I have PCOS but can't participate in any loss challenges just yet. I hope there's one on the go in the Fall because I will be looking for some serious motivation after this baby is born.
    Best of luck to all participating!!!

    You can still join us. I just reached out to PCOSers since it is a little harder for us to lose weight.

    I'm definitely in! Need to drop weight to be able to have a baby - that's my biggest reason. I lost 9 pounds last month and that was mostly with diet change. Now I'm 3 weeks into really working out and I know I can bang out another 10 pounds this next month!

    We gonna be doing this all hardcore and spreadsheety and reporting back and stuff? lol.

    I don't know about you guys, (and I really don't mean to cause offence here) but sometimes I feel like it's just me who can't lose weight and (sorry for the terminology here) but I feel, personally, like blaming no weight loss on my condition is just kinda like an excuse. I don't know, maybe I'm just too hard on myself.

    I guess because when I first starting losing weight, I lost 20kgs in 9 months and it just came off with no real exercise or anything. And now, for the past 2 years pretty much, I've been at the same weight (though not actively trying to lose mind you), and not seeing any results. I want to just blame myself for not trying hard enough, but I know that it is partially the PCOS ...

    Sorry if that made no sense. Just want to lose weight! lol

    So start on Sunday???? I am thinking weigh in and input every Friday or Saturday. If anyone wants to help and "administrate" that is fine. I will try and stay on top of things. Feel free to start topics and include Soul Cysters 40 in 4 as the header. Mini goal/challenge\goal: 1. Let's aim this week for 300 minutes of exercise of your choice.
