Hi! I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2015. Lost 60 lbs after I was diagnosed but then got engaged, married, and gained back 60 lbs plus another 50 lbs. :( Now we are trying to conceive and seeing a fertility specialist and I need to lose weight before we can start treatments. My goal right now is to lose about 40 lbs. I'm…

Being able to wear LARGE scrubs to work instead of 2XL :smiley:

Thank you all for your help!! It is much appreciated. I plan on checking out the training schedule at planet fitness and see what I can get started on while I'm there and then when I don't think that it's enough, move on up to a better gym. I also plan on checking out New Rules of Lifting for Women since a couple of you…

Hi! I've also been heavy my entire life. I haven't been under 215 since probably my freshman year of high school, but I'm not sure because we never had a scale. This is the first time that I have actually stuck with something and I feel wonderful about it. My life in general is starting to become what I want it to be and I…

Yessssss they do :) you've got this

I can fit into my boyfriends basketball shorts. It's a huge nsv for me! They used to be SO ridiculously tight and stretched out to the point where I couldn't breathe (ask me why I even tried wearing them, I don't know lmao) but now they fit comfortably! I've been able to wear them as pajamas they are so comfortable now :)

I gain about a day before I start (and I gain quite a bit) My last period I went from 229 to 231, yesterday was my last day (full 7 days) and now I am down to 227. It really just depends how your body works. I hate it during that week but I know that if I do everything like I'm supposed to, I'll still lose at the end of…

Kraft makes a new fat free cheese that is super low cal. It tastes a little bit different but to still hit your calorie goal and have cheese at the same time.. totally worth it! B)

It's great to hear a story like this. I found out I have PCOS in early December - my main goal is to get healthy enough to have babies with the love of my life after we get married. Good luck with everything!

Feel free to add me anyone. Was diagnosed with PCOS in December. I'm going to be talking to my OBGYN about Metformin when I go back for my check up next week

congratulations!! and great job on the weight loss! :)

I just found out that I have pcos, this past week. I'm at 240 and have been heavy most of my life. SInce I found out I have pcos I have been doing a lot of research and a lot of what I found is that weight loss does help. My OBGYN put me on birth control for the mean while to help control the symptoms but in the future I…

I have normally gone vegan/vegetarian while trying to get healthier. So this is a whole other ball park for me.

Our goals are definately very similar. My first goal is to be 202 by June, that is -50 lbs from my start weight. After that I will set a new long term goal. We got this! I added you! good luck

Everyone can add me as well. I have lost about 10 lbs but still have 100 to lose. :)

I want to lose at LEAST 50 lbs in 2015. That is my first goal at least ;)

ahhh that is so exciting!! congratulations! I can't wait for that moment that I can put a large shirt on without it suctioning around me

Hello Everyone! My name is Megan, I am 22 (23 in 22 days!) I have been heavy for the majority of my life, but this past winter was the highest weight I have ever hit, with the scale reaching 252! I have lost about 15 pounds in a month and a half. I hope to lose 100 lbs total by June 16, 2015 (my 23rd birthday). Good luck…

Hey! I'm 22.. close to 23 anyone feel free to add me, would love to share this journey with other people my age :)

That's an awesome idea! I'm going to try it out this week :)
