    About a year and a half ago, I had a job close to home and decided to walk there every day. It was only about a 10-12 minute walk each way, 5 days per week. I was SHOCKED when, after doing that for one month, I got my period (it had been 5 months since I had a period)... and even more shocked when I got my period again the next month! Even without changes to my diet (which is now my focus), the walking had such a positive impact on my circulation, hormones, and mood. Before that, I hadn't had a normal cycle in close to 5 years. I wasn't even feeling like a woman anymore.

    I would encourage everyone to just try to walk 20 minutes per day... walk it fast, sweat a teeny bit, and watch the changes happen! =)

    Hi to all fellow PCOSers, I hope you are all doing well. I am new to this and have only been doing it for maybe a month ( had to figure out how to work the site), but it has become a very useful tool. This is one of the hardest things I have ever had to deal with but I take it all one day at a time. I have diabeties and high blood pressure as well. I have found that a low carb diet helps me out a lot. Exercise is a great way to combat high blood sugar levels and high blood pressure. Please feel free to add me :smile:
