The Programme, week 2: Jo's comments
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.I'm feeling really positive and excited. We've discovered that I have polycystic ovaries which explains several problems I've had. It feels like a real breakthrough - a Eureka moment.

For the diet, I have to ration my carbohydrate intake and eat more protein. That's difficult as I'm a bit of a carbo queen. This morning, instead of cereal, I had an omelette with some vegetables. It feels strange and is a challenge in the kitchen, but if I can get to grips with my weight then I'll be delighted.
I've done a couple of half-hour power walks this week and some strength and core work. I'm aching a bit but in a good way. I'm also going to try skipping. I'm enjoying it - it's just a question of getting a routine to fit in with work and my son.
