Hi all, Im 24, and just recently diagnosed with PCOS. Would love to befriend all of you lovely ladies so that we can support and encourage each other. :smiley:

haha :) just friend requested you:flowerforyou:

I never really drank a lot tbh, but now that i'm health-conscious (the last year or so) I just make sure I have the calories for it. Usually when I go out it's a thursday night, cause my favourite club has its student night then, so if im attending i'll make sure to go to the 7.15am spin class that morning and drink a ton…

21 here! Feel free to add me :)

That is a horrible thing to say to someone! "i'm not attracted to you because of your weight" What a douche! If you started picking imaginary flaws in him I'm sure he wouldn't be so cocky! (also, hey from another ex swimmer! :drinker: )

I was on holiday at the exact spot of my favorite place on earth (strandhill in Sligo on the west coast of ireland) , and was just done surfing for the day...happy times called for a happy picture :)

Feel free to add me as well! I was on here 2 years ago and lost about 35lbs...but I stopped cooking for myself and gained it back soooo quickly! I've a significant amount more than you to lose, but I feel like a newbie again! haha... I just recently got a personal trainer as my 21st birthday present from my parents and i'm…

I work in starbucks on the weekend ( and i'm an economics and accounting student during the week! :) )

I've been looking for this thread for ages! I used to do these challenges 2 years ago when I lost a lot of weight :) I wanted to rejoin now that I've restarted. :smile: I'm on 1.7 lost for June so far!

I swam with dolphins on holiday in portugal, but cried when I saw the pictures. It was something I've always dreamt of doing and I'd spent my whole life dreaming about what those pictures would look like...but when I saw them I felt like a whale. One of the most heart-breaking moments of my life! Sounds so silly, but I…

I normally have a little handful of blueberries if i feel like nibbling something. :) I love blueberries though so for me that's a treat!.

hahaha Love it!

haha i seriously hope there have been! How lovely! :)

Great post! I've found I self-destruct when I compare myself to other people so I actually find men who are fit and healthy to be a great inspiration! There's no way I'll ever look like them, and that's a fact, but I can appreciate the hard work they've put in to get there and be inspired and motivated by it. :smile:…

I've lost 17lbs since july...fell off the wagon in october and didn't gain a single ounce back! That in itself proved to me that the changes I've made will last forever and has given me new determination to move on. I listen to my body now. Cheesy as it sounds, I think i had to learn to love myself at 218lbs when I…

I'm in! I've been lazy recently, but at least I'm back! 5lbs November challenge will keep me motivated! I've missed you guys! :)

I had a HUGE binge today and ended up 550calories over my limit:blushing: I'm so angry at myself! Didn't make 5lbs last month. week 1&2 I lost nothing and then 3.6lbs in week 3 and then nothing for the rest of the month. I would put money on me gaining this week. Too many celebrations and parties! As of this morning's peek…

I'm from Northern Ireland? It's technically UK...:(

I think so too!

Mine is a sort of weight goal. I know in the past I looked skeletal at 130lbs (I'm 5'8" but genuinely do have quite a large frame) so I wouldn't really want to weigh less than 140

FINALLY starting to see the scales move! 0.6lbs...but it's better than nothing. Turns out I was eating too little. I used the recipe function to workout dinners and turns out everything I eat is about 200/300 calories less than I thought. So I was accidentally only eating about 900-1000cals:noway: Starvation mode!! It's…

I haven't lost a thing this month! :noway: But I am lighter than I was last week (when I gained a little) so I'm sure I'm on the right track. Concerned that I wont reach 5lbs this month! Will just have to work my butt off! :smile:

I havent really done much exercise in the last few days so I'm not expecting a loss:frown: My mum broke her ankle and pretty much cant do anything for herself (yet:laugh: ) so I've been busy! I did walk to the supermarket yesterday, so that's something! Took me an hour and a half total! :noway: I can't see myself making…

Thats pretty much exactly what I've been looking for! Thanks for posting! I'm really motivated to reach my goal weight now and look freaking awesome :)

I blew it!!! :explode: I was losing this week, I knew I was! My mum broke her ankle last night and I just got so stressed of not hearing anything I gave in to 2 slices of pizza:devil: , think I would have went over by about 200cals in the end:grumble: Weighed this morning and was up 0.6lbs! Gutted! I'll just have to burn…

great post! :noway:

I think you just have to find some form of exercise you love (or at least don't mind) doing. That's easier said than done I know but maybe try different things. Or you could incorporate 2 or 3 little walks into your day. For me, I adore swimming, so I swim every morning. It doesn't even feel like exercise! I love spin…

Keeping up my 2 daily workouts and loving it! I have so much more energy and it really helps me de-stress! On my rest day I'm always sitting there depressed now:laugh: I swam this morning, not much, just about 2.5k but it felt so good! Been swimming every morning for the last week and it's just such a lovely way to start…

haha. You should definitely give it a go!:wink: So much more satisfying! :laugh: I had a great day today! I'm so proud of myself! I've started planning all my meals for the day first thing in the morning and it's really helping me to stay focused. It sounds silly but I get really excited about creating a "balanced diet."…
