Hey!
I'm Ashley. I'm 20 and I have PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Disease) and insulin resistance and I'm trying to lose 60 pounds. I really need some more friends for support. And because having friends is always awesome. It'd be also be really cool to have some friends dealing with the same stuff that I am, but you can add me regardless of whether or not you have PCOS. I'm friendly and I will be supportive in return. Thanks! :heart:

    My name is Betsy, I'll be 20 in exactly 17 days, and I have PCOS. I'm trying to lose 20-30 pounds before it gets worse. I'd love to be your friend. :)

    Hi there! Have you ever seen the GoKaleo blog? http://gokaleo.com/ She is awesome and she lost over 100 pounds with PCOS. She has a ton of great information that you may find helpful.

    You can do this!

    I have had PCOS since I was around 20 as well, so over 20 years. It's definitely tough to lose weight. I need to lose 85 lbs. at least. Anyone can feel free to add me.

    Diagnosed with PCOS about 12 years, I was insulin resistance, taking metformin, no menstrual cycles (unless with pills) until now! I no longer take pills :)

    You can do it!!!! I still have 36 lbs to lose to achieve my goal weight. Keep positive.
