Who knew that a week and a half could change my life...

6 months ago, I sat in my doctors office processing that I have pcos and it will be hard for me to have children of my own. ( I will not say I CAN'T have children because, God is bigger than anything a dr can tell me) Anyways, because I don't like to deal with my emotions in healthy ways and I am a people pleaser by nature, I ate my feelings and ate and ate and ate. Since I found out 6 months ago, I have gained 36 pounds. WHAT?! Yes, that is right, 36 terrible pounds! However, I have been in denial about it and using the health issues as an excuse. Until now. The only thing I can truly do something about is getting healthy and that is what I have done! On Sept. 5th, I started using Chocolate Vegan Shakeology, walking 2 miles a day (almost every day), and doing Slim in 6 work out DVD (5 days a week). The point is, I am moving, I am eating balanced, healthy meals. I feel good about myself and I am no longer hiding what I eat to deal with my broken heart. Instead, I am walking and writing out how I feel, eating fruit instead of icecream. My life is changing and good will come! Anways, the fun part...

I applaud your ability to recognize the issues, deal with the pain brought by your diagnosis, and to make smart, healthy changes to take better care of yourself. You are doing great and I wish you every success! God is good, all the time!! Stay strong and you will push past the obstacles. Your future children (should you have them naturally, IVF, adopt, etc...) will thank you!0

Way to take control! Im going through something simular as far as trying to get up after being thrown for a loop. It's not that we fall down, it's that we get back up!
God Bless!0 -

It is amazing what even a week can do! When I decided that THIS time was it and really got serious back in February, I noticed almost immediately how great I felt just changing my eating habits and starting to exercise very slowly.
Kudos to you and keep it up!0
