Loved the story and pics! I have PCOS too, diagnosed in the past few years. I've always been heavy but it got a lot worse quickly. Can't blame the PCOS on all of it Reading stories like these is always a great inspiration and kick in the pants.0

I try to keep my carbs under 100g a day and I usually net 1500 to 1600 hundred but I'm not super strict on that, sometimes more, sometimes less. Thank you!!0 -

Oh man, I am grinning from ear to ear today! Thank you all so much for the support, everyone! I didn't expect to get this much attention, and I surely never thought I'd be inspiring anyone, and I DEFINITELY didn't think so many people would approve of my fashion sense! :laugh:
You guys all rock, and you can all do whatever you put your mind to, especially if I can!0 -
Oh, I forgot to add... I got a new fancy scale today as well that measures a bunch of things, like body fat %, bone mass, muscle mass, total body water and weight and according to the scale (which seems very accurate and had very good reviews) my body fat percentage classifies me as overweight, no longer obese. (So screw you, BMI!) Woo!0

I have PCOS, glucose intolerance/insulin resistance. It sucks. Congrats!!! I was down 50, then got upset after gaining 12 lbs in 2 days on vacation, and.. well... lost it. I'm back now, and working on reaching my goal.0

You look fantastic! I have PCOS/metabolic syndrome/insulin resistance, too, although I think it has improved quite a bit since I've lost weight. I had VSG surgery in November and I'm down 53 lbs. Still have 30-ish to go. My surgeon and metabolic doc have both told me to be VERY careful if I don't want to get pregnant b/c losing all this weight will definitely increase fertility since we have the above-mentioned conditions! Crazy, since I had to have IVF to get pregnant in the first place due to my PCOS! In any case, you're doing awesome!0
