Great job. I have struggled with PCOS for years. I was put on metformin when I was 22yrs old. I recently had a hysterectomy and had to be put back on metformin. I lost 80 pounds and then gained 20 back. Now I am trying/struggling with the medicine and lossing weight. I commend you for all your hard work. It has really paid off. You keep going. You are fantastic!!!0

Hi - I wanted to share my story so others in a similar position know it can be done
I weighed 173.1 kilos/380 pounds in august 2006. I have PCOS and was obviously very unhealthy, I struggled with life and was really if nothing changed looking at life confined to my home.
I lost my weight by counting calories, exercising 4-6 days per week (primarily cardio/les mills classes with a minimum 1 PT session of resistance per week)
This is me in April 2006 at 173.1 kilos/380 pounds
December 30 2008 at 150 kilos/330 pounds
April 2010 at 120 kilos/264 pounds
Me now at 90.7 kilos/199 pounds
I hope my pics inspire someone If anyone wants to add me for continued support/motivation (I still wanna lose another 40 pounds) fee free to add me
CONGRATULATIONS. You look truly amazing0 -
Great job! That's very inspirational. I've seen a lot of women with PCOS on these boards, and so many of them seem disheartened because it can take longer to lose weight with PCOS. I hope they see your story.
My doctor keeps mentioning WLS, but I keep telling him I'm doing just fine with low-carb (I have insulin resistance) and exercising. I can't wait to get my BMI under 40 so he'll stop mentioning it.0 -
Well done you, I have PCOS as well and it's a bloody nightmare, I have been counting calories for the last 3 weeks, having between 1200 and 1400 a day and have been doing 3 Zumba classes a week since Christmas, I seem to be toning up but have only lost about 5 pounds so far grrrrrr.0

5 pounds in 3 weeks is really good, especially with PCOS. I lose about one pound per week even though people who weigh as much as I do tend to lose 2-3 pounds per week. It's frustrating, but you're doing great!0 -
You have done so well, you look great! Congrats on your loss so far and good luck with your journey!0

I'm inspired. James0

Truly fantastic and inspirational! Fellow PCOS-er, finally decided to step it up and get healthy myself a few months ago. Thank you for showing what hard work and determination can bring. You look fabulous! Good luck on your last 40 lbs!0

You're amazing! I've never been diagnosed with PCOS, but doctors have suggested I have it and told me to wait until I try to have kids one day to deal with it. Either way, I know how difficult hormonal imbalances can make life in general, not to mention losing weight. You have made incredible progress. I hope you are beyond proud of yourself! I hope your general health continues to improve, as well. PCOS ain't fun!!0
