    I also have PCOS! I was dx in 2000, 6 months after I married. I threw out the birth control pills that day, my doc put me on Metformin, and we began our journey to conceive. Both times we conceived my kiddos, I was losing weight and was 211 pounds. Crazy, right? Have you read the Insulin Resistance Diet book? It's pretty informative. It just teaches you how to balance your carbs and proteins so that your blood sugars don't spike then crash. This has helped me greatly... When my blood sugar crashes, I tend to become aggressive hungy. LOL! Add me! I'd love to run this race with you!

    I was diagnosed more than 20 years ago. I have always been active and had a good diet...too bad nobody ever mentioned that I should have been eating low carb! I discovered that on my own by tracking my food and watching what different choices did to my weight.

    I just want to tell you all that becoming diabetic is NOT inevitable with PCOS/Metabolic Syndrome if you take care of yourself. My fasting blood sugar is currently 70, A1C is 5.0.
