thanks everyone

Thanks gia07, I will

Maybe but my eating amount this week was no different then any other week.

I have PCOS and I have been told low carb as well but I find it hard to fallow

I agree with MHarper522. If she is self conscious then working out at home is a lot better. There are some easy beachbody videos like 21day fit or the P90 for beginners (the most resent one put out). You also mention time wise it be hard for you to make meals because you get up so early. Ever think about taking one of your…

Sometimes though you end up eating more then you realize or if you lost weight maybe you need to change how many cals a day you should be eating

I have PCOS as well and it's definitely harder to loose the weight. Have you tried exercising or a low carb diet? Lots of pcos women have success with low carb diets. I did it for a while and it was great but I turned back to emotional eating.

I'm not sure what everyone has said since there are way to many posts to reading them all. I apologize if I am just repeating. I will say that you can not motivate someone to do it. Motivation is an internal thing. You can encourage and support but not motivate. There is a reason why she keeps saying she going to loose…

Sorry guys I didn't mean to post this to start a fight. I posted it to find out different opinions and view points in hopes that someone is going to say something and that will give me an idea as to where i am going wrong. Yes I have a food scale for when I track my food. No I did not realize MFP might be overly generous…

Avhceois I lost 40lbs based on diet only which is why I said I thought I had my diet now under control but yes I understand both your points that I must revisit my diet again.

Thanks for the advice

My problem is I lack any cardiovascular endurance, muscle endurance, flexibility or coordination. My goal isn't really to become a fit body builder or a skinny size 2. I have been trying to research but with all the different articles its hard for me to determine what is write and what is wrong. The best way to explain it,…

I have been tracking my calories and as far as I know and understand I have a calorie deflect which is why I thought the scale would move. I am a bit confused because some are telling me to be in a calorie deflect while others are saying if I am at the gym I should be in a surplus.

It could be the fact you are not use to the faster speed or it could be the treadmills incline. I find running on a treadmill to be awkward. I can never get good posture on an treadmill incline because it seems to be unnatural to me. The faster you run the better your posture needs to be so of course you are going to…

Is there a specific A ketogenic diet that everyone is fallowing? or amount of carbs that everyone is eating? I understand the concept of the diet but no idea how many carbs should I be limited too.

All the time. I picked up a 50lb bag of potatos the other day because I am close to the 50lb loss point and I couldn't believe it. I dunno how I managed for some many years. No wounder I was always tired and out of breath.

I also have PCOS. Do a search, there is a group for people with PCOS

I'm in the same position Katie, i've been really mind this heat. I don't want to seem to move in it. I have been sticking to going for my walk or run. Before I go, I take a small towel, wet it and stick it in the freezer for a little while. It definitely helps keep me stay cool. I also go for a cool shower afterwards. Like…

I'm no expert but I am guessing you are doing too much all at once. I started my running at 257lbs. Like you I wanted to be able to do it all at once. However I discovered once I slowed things down and took it one step at a time, I performed much better. I was experiencing planters facilities. I would suggest you start a…

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I will look into some new balance suzaka

26 and no kids yet...thank god lol Feel free to add me

MeanderingMam & RunnerElizabe - thanks for the suggestion. I never thought about just moving right into the C210k program. My thought would be to just keep practicing c25k but it makes sense that moving on is going to make me more comfortable with 5k. CAC10456 - Thanks for cheering me on. It great to know someone believes…

Thanks for the tips and advice everyone. I am a bit nervous and excited all rolled in one. meshashesha20 - No I am not running on a treadmill. I have been using the local in door or outdoor walking tack. So it is all one level but I do sometimes have to figure out how to get around other walkers. I might take your…

Wow what an amazing transformation

I always thought that it was the weight that was bad on your joints and not the running?

Thanks for the suggestions

Hello my name is Courtney. I am a 26yr old female with PCOS. I am 5'3 tall. I started off at 257lb and current down to 214lb so I still have a long way to go. I originally joined the site a few years ago but after seeing little success I gave up. I am back at it again and so far I have lost more weight and stuck with it…

Thank you for the suggestion

My name is Courtney and I would love to have some new mfp friends. The journey is always easier when you have support along the way. I've been on and off the site for sometime but I am hoping this time it is going to go off and stay off. Feel free to add me as a friend or send messages.

I am the middle of C25K and I am still pretty slow in order to finish the 20mins plus runs. I was beating my self up pretty bad when someone sent me a pintrest that stated "I run. I am slower then a herd of turtles stomping through peanut butter but I run". Like my friend pointed out to me, I shouldn't beat my self up…
