I have severe endometriosis and cysts. I don't know where you live, but I went to a doctor trained in naprotechnology and he was awesome. Previous doctors said I had little hope, but after surgery it took us three cycles to conceive. They also helped my friend with pcos by doing an ovarian wedge resection. She now has a…

When my husband and I were struggling to conceive, I stumbled across this: http://www.eggsploitation.com/ I think it's important to look into this from all aspects and to safeguard your health. Best of luck!

Thanks for the support and kind words. I hope when my cycles returns this will all work itself out. Metabolism slows when we are unhappy? Wow!

That's good to hear! I will plan on keeping up with the daily workouts, but ease back just a bit. Maybe lots of long walks and light weights. Thanks for the input!:smile: Three kids and you still manage to keep up with amazing workouts! You're my new hero!

5'4.5" SW: 188 (day I gave birth 7/13 before pregnancy I was hovering around 130) CW: 135.5 GW: 128 Bust: 36.5 Waist: 29 (at BB 32...my trouble spot) Hips: 37

I'm on week 4; I just started yesterday. I am only down two pounds but I am finally dropping some belly inches and zippering almost all of pre-preggo clothes (they don't all look great, but hey, I'm a work in progress :smile: I will post results when I finish

I'm on week 4! Woo Hoo! I can't wait to finish. Week 3 was really hard and I am so glad it's over. How is everyone doing?

I just started level 3 today. Man. It was tough. Wow, lots of moves requiring coordination and seems to work the same muscle groups mercilessly. Anyone else feeling his way?

My unexpected fix was childbirth. Yea, I know. You'd think I'd be wider? Somehow, someway 8 months postpartum my butt and thighs are smaller than they have been for years. oddly, I am carrying around an extra 6 lbs but I wear the same pant size. The weight redistributed differently. i am not as small on top. i think I am…

Day two was crap... I was sore and Jillian annoyed me. However, I think day 3 is the hump day for all of her levels ( at least it seemed so with 30ds). I feel better today and I have some hope :)

I am an Eastern Orthodox Christian. My parents were both converts. I was baptised as an infant and I am still attending.

I just started ripped in 30, I really like it so far!

I had to mentally prepare to work out. When I started dieting and doing workouts I didn't see the scale budge either and it drove me crazy. My friend told me to focus on dieting first and then hit the workouts. So for 2 months I just focused on what I was eating and did little stuff like parking the car far away or taking…

I just got to 137 last week! I'm a new mom and have dropped 52 pounds since her birth in July. I cook almost every night lots of vegan friendly dishes. Do you use allrecipes?

I went to a Levi's outlet store and wanted to buy bootlegs or something like that a few months after I gave birth. The sales lady looked at me like I was crazy and pointed to an extremely small row. I figured that should tell me something, so I was determined to find a pair that was ok. She measured me, they have this new…

Just finished day 1! I think JM really took into account what people said. She kept saying that she won't repeat moves and she seems much less, well, robotic. I think I like it. I had to modify the push ups in the beginning and I still can't do thos side raises without the bottom leg bent. Good luck, everybody! :smile:

I just finished 30ds yesterday and took today as a rest day. I bought ri30 yesterday and was planning on starting tomorrow! I am in, in, in!!!!

Yup. ^ What they said. She feels guilty for wanting t o pig out at the buffet and is totally jealous. On my wedding day a friend who has jealousy issues said, " nice earrings" no congrats, no good luck, no compliments etc. after drooping 51 pounds of baby weight, I saw her this past weekend. Many people said how good I…

I just finished today. I am down 5 pounds (142 to 137) and lost about 10 inches. I am also down a full size and then some. While I may not be bikini ready, I look mostly like me again ( before the baby who is now 8.5 months old). The biggest difference is in my butt, thighs an upper waist. My husband reached out for my…

I have only lost 1.5 pounds. At first i gained a good bit, 3 pounds. I am on level 2 day 6. While the weight seems to be stubborn, I have lost inches and tightened up. At the beginning I was squeezing into a size 8 and now my 6s fit. I seem to be down a size and my shoulders look good. I'm crossing my fingers that the post…

Jessie, I am a bit ahead of you. I wanted to repost this to help encourage you. Let's keep each other motivated: I started February 22 and I take a rest day every 5 days or so. I am on level 2 day 6. This work out has been the number one game changer for me post-partum. I gained a whopping 58 pounds and was up to 188…

I started February 22 and I take a rest day every 5 days or so. I am on level 2 day 6. This work out has been the number one game changer for me post-partum. I gained a whopping 58 pounds and was up to 188 before I gave birth in July (pre-pregnancy weight usually low 130s). I lost a good bit after the swelling went down…
