PCOS and trying something new

Hi, I'm new to MFP. I have PolyCyctic Ovary Syndrome and I have about 25 extra lbs to get rid of. I was a weight watcher for 4 years and had to quit primarily because of the cost. I also left WW because, yes I can lose weight with it (I've lost 60lbs with WW so far) but it isn't the healthiest way. I would like to eat more natural foods. WW encourages a lot of instant and processed foods for weight loss. I would like to get away from that and eat healthier. PCOS is best treated with proper foods and exercise so I am going to try this. I am super excited and hoping this will work out for me. If there are any other newbies out there who need someone else to motivate them. I would love to hear from you.

I'm a newbie. I also have PCOS (& hypothyroidism). I did WW 2 years ago & lost 40lbs. I then got pregnant with my twins & had to stop the program. The cost is to much for us now so I'm doing it on my own. I have at least 65lbs to go. Good luck!0

I am also new. Just joined this week. I also have PCOS and need to loose over 100 pounds. I also have tried ww and after looking around this site and seriously thinking of getting rid of my online access to them. I haven't really been tracking anyway.
Welcome and good luck!0
