Going low sugar/low carb!
I've been doing great the gym and have definitley noticed my body changing and have lost almost 10 pounds in the last couple months. However, I know my big area for opportunity is my diet!! Since I have PCOS, I really should be low sugar/low carb anyway. To set myself up for success, this weekend I plan to do some prep…

Is this plan a good one? Weights/Cardio for weight loss
Hi all. Some background. I have PCOS, 28 year old female. Currently at 240 (ouch), wearing size 16/18. Would like to get down to about 150 weight-wise or at least size 6/8 since the scale isn't everything (see! I have learned from lurking! :-) ) I get to the gym about 3 days a week, 4 if I am being an over-achiever. I wear…

WHERE do I start!?
Goals. Not resolutions. Goals which are measured and more focused to accomplish. My goal: Lose 100 pounds. Yikes. i am 28 years old. PCOS. Disgusted with myself (physically). I have no confidence. I look at pictures of me after I had lost 50 pounds, and I think, wow that girl was HOT, what happened to her?! I want that…

BodyRock.TV/Zuzka Light for weight loss?
I have tried... and tried... to enjoy going to the gym. But I HATE it! Cardio on the elliptical is so boring, and lifting weights gets so repetitive, plus I feel like I need to be there at least 45 minutes to get a decent workout in. Between work and chores on the ranch after work, I just don't have that time. So, I have…

What strength training/Lifting Program do YOU use?!
Looking for some input! I like to switch it up so I don't get bored. I have been working out for about 4 weeks now, started Jamie Easonm's LiveFit this week. I have heard though, that full body lifting plans can be better? Anyone want to share what they use? I am looking to drop at least 50 pounds of fat, and get some…

discouraged... PCOS weight loss
I have been working out (mostly weights with some cardio) and counting calories for 5 weeks now. I am down 3 pounds, and when I took measurements a week ago, a total of 7 inches. Are these good results?? I feel like they aren't for 5 weeks. I reined in my eating habits- typical day (i generally have 2-3 "cheat" meals a…

Lifting but scale isn't budging
I have been working out regularly for a few weeks now- 4 days a week, the first 2-3 weeks I was doing 20-30 minutues speed/incline intervasl on the treadmill, last week I started following Jamie Eason's LiveFit program. My clothes do fit differently, I hadn't been tracking inches but I took measurements last night to start…

Jamie Eason LiveFit?
A friend of mine was telling me about it and I decided to start following her exercise plan. Anyone else out here doing it or have a success story/before after pictures from it? I am on Day 2 of Phase 1, since I have been going to the gym regularly for about 4 weeks, I am following the strength training exactly but adding…

Staying on Track when CRAZY busy
MY schedule is nuts right now. We are shorthanded at work, just myself and one other employee, so we are working 50+ hour weeks, and don't even get a lunch break. I have been working out a few weeks ago, have seen some progress but I know my downfall is my eating. I leave for work at 7, get to the gym around 5:30, am there…
