    thankyou so much for posting!! you look amazing!!!!

    i've just started out here and it's making such a difference that there are real people with real journeys, it's already helping me to believe that i can do it.
    i'm having a rubbish time with my drs, they can't decide if it is endometriosis, or just a hormone imbalance and just want me to take teh contraceptive pill, which just makes me put on weight and get hairier, their response is, well it's not life threatening. so i'vve been stuck forever since the birth of my youngest son at this weight, and what's worse, apart from the personal trainer i had and acupuncutrist noone ever thinks i'm trying to do anytyhing about it !!! xx thankyou so much for posting!

    Thank you for sharing your amazing story! I've got PCOS as well, your story gives me so much motivation! There is so much misinformation out there about what to do and what not to do... I am thankful I was finally diagnosed, it's made me understand my body a lot more. Before diagnosis I had doctors and dieticians tell me I was lazy, the obesity alone was responsible for my lack of periods.... Finally I came across a doctor who put all the symptoms together and did the relevant tests. Cysts - more than 20 each side. Blood tests, hormones and insulin resistance point to PCOS... Since eating a more diabetes friendly type diet my blood sugar has stabilised, less mood swings and fatigue... Woo hoo!

    Thats another thing I forgot about, thank you for reminding me about those mood swings! LOL those were horrible . It was like PMSing x30 haha, my husband is so much happier now lol
    And sometimes doctors dont like to look at the whole picture, they like to blame obesity on just being lazy. Its hard for someone who doesn't know they have PCOS to put two and two together and fix their eating habits etc etc. I am really glad you got diagnosed and you are beating the odds!

    you are truly an inspiration. It is so hard to lose weight with pcos and you did it in spades!!!! I am so proud of you... WAY TO GO!!!

    for me, i've never had a period without medication to help. All my doctors told me i just need to lose weight and that just made me feel so inadequate. i also deal with all the pain, mood swings, no period, acne problem, losing hair, excess hair everywhere else, stretch marks, bloating, insulin resistance, ETC (and boy does the list go on). so, im here for support whenever you need it :-)

    i really believe losing weight and staying there will benefit PCOS-er's.... so im trying = Im struggling but i refuse to give up this time!

    I've always felt so alone dealing with pcos and its many stupid symptoms. but after joining MFP and especially adding you, i've somehow found a whole community of support and a fountain of information!

    I hope that I can have as much success as you one day.

    KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK! see you at the finish line = a new, healthy, and happy life :-)
