    I have PCOS and during puberty I began to gain weight rapidly due to PCOS, however I'm losing ever so slightly. I need motivation! :( I have no confidence at the moment.

    I have it too! I was diagnosed 12 years ago.

    Ladies, weight loss is possible with PCOS, it can be done. I have done it! In 2006/2007 I managed to lose over 100lb in the hope of having children. It worked!! I now have 3 beautiful children, although unfortunately I also have the weight back too.

    My PCOS is terrible, I have all of the symptoms. I can't tolerate metformin and I can't use birth control due to blood clotting issues. Weightloss is the only treatment I can use, but it's not easy!

    I was diagnosed at 18 when I didn't get certain things every month and they stuck me on Metformin 3 times a day which is ironically also a drug for diabetes so if anyone wants to buddy me up thats great!

    I have it as well as all of you. It is so hard to lose weight. I have gone up and down with my weight now for years. I have PCOS as well as other health problems. I would love support and be supported by people who actually understand. So you all can add me! :)
