Thanks for the post, and you look AMAZING!!

I am currently taking metformin, I've been on it for about 2 years with no weight loss.
It does help with my acne and regulates my periods a bit, so I'm happy about that.

I am on a new program of high protein and low carbs and cutting calories.
I'm hoping that once I lose the weight, my body and hormones will readjust and I will no longer need the metformin.
We will see!

Congrats on your amazing progress!

Awesome! I too was on metformin and was one of the unlucky ones that had 0 weight loss, haha I have all the luck! I too am finding it best to have higher protein and lower carb combined with calorie counting Good luck to you!

Yay! Not that I'm happy you didn't have weight loss with Metformin, but I thought I was one of the few who didn't. It's nice to know it's not just me!!

Awesome! I've been dealing and not dealing with PCOS for most of my life, though no one figured it out until I showed an article to my OBGYN who realized that's what was going on and ran the necessary tests to rule it in. I'm at the beginning of the journey, again, to lose the weight. I've lost my pregnancy weight but still need to lose my moving to a new place and eating garbage weight. MFP keeps me motivated to make better choices and work out more. Right now I'm doing cardio and/or strength training about 5x/week and cooking/prepping more food at home to keep me on track. Down 11 pounds, and striving for 30ish more.

We're guessing PCOS has led to both weight gain and hair loss. I'm hoping to get my sugar in balance and regrow the hair while dropping the lbs. Thank you for posting this as I don't see many success stories that look real.

Congratulations and keep it up!
