I've PCOS Too. Definitely not fun and doesn't make things easy. I've found setting teeny targets helps. When I get all pumped and am - yeah I'm going to lose two pounds a week and be mega healthy- make all the right decisions. Then I slide and roll on self loathing. When I make targets like - yup- two pounds gone each…

It's tough alright but because I'm not diabetic my doc said I can cycle. I take on empty stomach every 3rd night, then every 2nd, then swap one night for a morning with a bland meal. If you eat anything with fat it wrecks havoc but if you plan 4 weeks of boring but healthy food and build up- I found it really helps to kick…

Pity you don't live in Ireland ;)

Hey. Have PCOS and CMT. Losing weight a nightmare but getting there slowly. Found metforman meds really helped to kick start weight loss. Awful meds but I cycle them and each time I start I get a little nudge in right direction. But it's really tough. Happy if anyone wants to add me as friend. Would love to support others…

Hello. Huge mobility problems here and it's darn hard. Basically can't exercise but it sometimes easy to say 'I can't do anything ' so I try fit in little movements e.g.- 20 side to side and 20 tuck knee to chest. If nothing else it'll keep joints mobilised etc. Some great vids on core muscle work that you can do lying in…

Darn......the wavy hand wouldn't go and blocked rest of msg 'sigh'. But yes.... hello!! Always here to chat. It's a tough road but you will get there! Baby steps

Hello

Best of luck!! I've 100++++ to lose but I'm on the right road and here really helps. Some good monthly challenges to take part in that can help motivation!! All food in one sitting- I couldn't do it!! I find setting mini goals help- e.g. Not 'I've 100 lbs to lose' but 'I'm gonna lose a minimum of 8lbs this month'.

Starting weight : 301 Current weight : 301 November goal : Lose 10lbs Ultimate goal : Lose 160 lbs ++++ 4th :296 (yayyyyy!!! - baby steps) 11th : 293 ( hard to keep up but trying!) 18th : 296 (bday :( ) 24th: 290 (happy lady here !!) Been tough keeping on track but have to say that this little challenge helped keep me…

Ok......definitely a cultural thing. I'm in Ireland so what you wearing considered a vest......something you wear under your shirt/top when the weather gets colder. Basically winter undies so to me it would be really odd to see a person wearing this shopping. I'd be think...... ' must be mentally ill'. Must be very hot…

Let's just say bday binge and leave it at that :(

I've an insanely long way to go too but hoping using this app will help. Add me as friend if u like! Have you tried the monthly challenge discussion. You put current weight - goal weight to lose in month then set 4 'weigh ins' eg every fri and post progress. Can help to have a real tangible goal to work towards. But set…

I'm in a similar position. Lost tons of weight before them piled it on with health issues. Broke my foot last year too and I'm still on crutches. Limited mobility and weight just piling on. Decided to give this a go because I'm only fooling myself. I'll make the best of plans then nibble chocolate!!! It's got to stop! So…

My goodness

Up for the challenge. Good luck everyone :)

New to this too and have a hell of a long way to go but desperately want this to work!!
