edited October 2024 in Success Stories
I started my weight loss journey after being diagnosed with PCOS back in early January 2011. Since then, my Metformin dose has gone from 1700 to 850, and my blood glucose level is now at an 88 from being borderline diabetic. After losing the first 50 back at the end of August, I hit a wall but was determined to keep going. I set my next mini goal of 60 to be lost by my 31st birthday, November 12. As of this morning, I met my goal 8 days early!!

First pic -- October 1, 2010 -- few lbs less than my heaviest of 246.9
Second pic -- May 12, 2011 -- 219.6
Third pic -- November 3, 2011 -- 186.7!

    That's incredible! Just stay away from hydrogenated oils. They trigger PCOS big time. I miss Oklahoma.

    Fabulous transformation!!! Congrats!!! I took Metformin for a short time (I have PCOS and was trying to get pregnant) and it made me so nauseous. Hopefully at the end of your journey you will be off the med for good! Take care!
