I have PCOS too. I've lost 56lbs since Jan. Its been very slow going but I figure at least its going. I work out twice as hard/long as my friends and see half the results on the scale. I do notice that I lost more inches than them probably due to muscle gain at the same time as fat loss.

Down 56 and always freezing! But hey I will take throwing on a sweater over throwing 56lbs back on ANY DAY!

Count me in! My goal was to lose 30lbs by the end of the year but what the heck..40lbs would be even better!!!!

That is such a bad break. I'm sorry for your misfortune. Maybe try swimming. Its what I do when I can't run for whatever reason and its just as good a workout.

I know how tough and discouraging it is but you have the right attitude. Please don't give up hope. I say I am lucky to have my 3 children but what I didn't mention is that I lost 6 pregnancies over the 11 years between the first and the second. My second was concieved right after I had miscarried and given up. We didn't…

So I'm not alone!!!!! I am in the same boat as most of you posters. I was diagnosed in Nov of last year. Although I am certain i've had PCOS my whole life. I never had a TOM until I was 17 and was put on the pill. At the time I was told I did not have enough body fat because I was so athletic. IMAGINE THAT!!!! I am one of…

Thanks everyone for your input! I asked the fitness trainer at the gym and he said I should go by the HRM. The treadmill and MFP don’t know my exertion level and the HRM does. The HRM also has all of my personal stats. I am however going to go with the middle number when recording my workout on MFP since I would rather be…

Isn't it funny how our minds play tricks on us?! I do know exactly how you feel but I've only lost 30lbs. My husband keeps telling me that I am not as big as I think I am. He keeps "flirting" with me and telling me he likes what he sees and I keep thinking he's just being nice. And my friends and co-workers comments are…

I'd love breathable pants with enough elastic in the waste to stay up! I run and have "thunder thighs" but no badunkadunk to hold my pants up. That and a running bra that tames the girls better! While my husband finds my 38DD's bobbing all over the place amusing, I find it very annoying. I've resorted to wearing two sports…

I can relate. There is a beautiful 10K trail around a lake near my house. I've been running for a few weeks now and thought I was up to a pretty good pace. Well when I ran on this trail yesterday everyone was flying by me like I was standing still. I was so embarrased, I eventually left and went running on an empty track…
