Losing weight. 1 Stone!

Hello,

My name is Kathryn and I was recently diagnosed with PCOS (Polycystic Ovaries). I need to lost 1 stone to be a healthy weight to manage the condition. I'm 22, live in England and am looking for a few people to be friends

I am 22.

I would like to maintain weight too. I was wondering if anyone knew of a good diet for people with PCOS or just had some helpful tips on will power?

Thanks!
Kathryn

Obviously I don't have PCOS being a man and all that ;-) However there are a lot of people here who will hopefully be able to give you more specific support. Have a look in the groups as I think there are ones for PCOS.

Meanwhile you may find this link useful. Good luck

Hi and welcome to the forums! Definitely read the 'sexy pants' link so thoughtfully provided by _Zardoz_. Also try "in place of a road map": http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/975025-in-place-of-a-road-map-short-n-sweet

With reference to PCOS, I'm not diagnosed myself, but I've got a lot of the symptoms and have found a lower carb approach to dieting very helpful.

There's several groups dedicated to the condition - just go to "Groups" (http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups) and type in PCOS.

I think the most active one is: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/3070-p-c-o-sis

Hello! Lovely to meet you. I've not got PCOS myself but do take medication that causes weight gain so I know what it's like when medical factors seem to be against you. I'd like to add you, if I can. We can motivate each other!
