I have PCOS. It can be very hard to lose the weight, so I understand. I was diagnosed with PCOS shortly after getting married and gained 40 pounds. I tried hard to lose that weight, but it wasn't until I got my sugar levels/insulin under control that I was able to lose the weight. Doing a small amount of exercise and…

I had my test last week. I was very concerned about not passing due to sugar issues I had before getting pregnant. But, everything went well and my numbers were great. And yes, you don't feel the best afterwards, but I was glad to have it done. I am at 22 weeks. They are going to test me again at 30 weeks just to make sure…

Hi! I am new to this group...Due with our first on 1-31-14! We are supposed to find out the gender on Thursday! Three days from now. I will be 18 weeks. Excited!

I'm in! I did the 30 day Shred last fall and it was AMAZING! So hard, but so good all at the same time. :-) I am going to try to do it straight through this time, for the entire month of August. I am looking forward to the support from all of you! Thanks!

This is awesome! My husband and I just got a tandem bike at the beginning of the summer and we love riding. I will keep track of my riding and running and post it on here. Thanks!

You can do it!

Hey Guys! I haven't done so well this past week. I have watched what I am eating and have been making and trying different foods at home, but I haven't been doing my DVDs. :( So, tomorrow, I am going to do it and try to get in 5 times this week. I'll check in tomorrow and let you know how it goes. :-) I hope you are all…

Love Pinterest!

Wow!!!!!!!!!!!! That's awesome! I also have PCOS and am losing weight so hopefully we can start a family someday. Good for you!!!! Congrats!!!!!!!!!

You guys have good advice. I would love to hear more. I also have a thyroid problem and have cut back my carbs alot, but not as much as you all are saying. It sounds like I should really cut my carbs back and get rid of my fruit. I already don't have white flour, sugar, etc. Anyway, thanks for the advice.

Ripped Day 4, Done. It's getting a little better. Don't know if I want to go on to level 2 next week, but I think I should. It will keep pushing me harder and harder. Have a GREAT weekend everyone!

Wow, I think that's really good. Keep up the good work!

Good for you! It always feels better once it's done. :-)

Just did Ripped in 30, Level 1. It's still hard! But I know it's making me work really hard. Can't wait to see the results at the end. :-) How's it going for all of you?

Me too. Just going to "start over." My plan is to start this week and do the last three weeks of the program. I want to be done with the program by the end of the month. I know I can do this, it's just hard to start over again.

Just got done with Ripped in 30, Day 2. Man, it's hard! It feels good to be done with it though. Glad to hear the good reports from everyone! Keep up the good work! :-)

Haha...Good for you! You can do it!

Hi Everyone! My name is Cami and I just turned 24 years old. I have PCOS and it has caused me to gain like 50 pounds in the past two years. Finally the weight is beginning to come off, with lots of hard work. I know I can do this, so I am hoping to lose another 15 pounds in the next three months. We'll see how that goes.…

I used 5 pound weights for now. I think some of the moves I could use more weight, but I'll see how it goes. It was just my first day today.

I agree with what you said! I have PCOS as well. I found out that I had it about three years ago. It has been very hard to lose weight. Since I have been on no sugar and no flour, I have been able to lose 15 pounds. I am hoping to lose another 15 pounds soon. I have had to make smaller goals than most people. Some people…

My plan for January is to do the Ripped in 30. I also got through about half of the Shred for the month of December and would like to mix it up and finish that one as well. My husband and I are doing the C25K program and will be done with that this month as well. So excited! I really would like to lose 5 pounds this month.…

Sounds good! Thanks for starting this thread. I just bought two more of her workouts with my Target gift card I had gotten from Christmas. Can't wait to see how it goes! I am going to start with Ripped in 30 TODAY!

I am getting done with the 30 Day Shred and just bought the Ripped in 30 today! Can't wait to start. I would like to do it with all of you guys if you are going to start in January. I need accountability too. :-)

Just did Level 2, Days 4-5 yesterday and today. I am going to really stick with it this week, before the weekend starts. I would like to do some of Level 3 before Christmas, but I don't know how that will go. Anyway, it's good to be back and glad to hear everyone's successes! Keep it up!

Starting this tomorrow. Anyone else on Week 6?

Finished today and am starting week 6 tomorrow. See you all there!

I have not given up. I just have had a crazy busy week. Getting ready for a Christmas outreach on Thursday that I am in charge of. I will do the Shred tomorrow though. Probably not Thursday, but I'll be back on track on Friday. Just have to take it one day at a time until I get this outreach done with. I'll keep you all…
