Starting Over

hi Im Melissa.
I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was in 8th grade. About 14 yrs old. I am 33 now. I have tried several times to lose weight and have been unsuccessful. I came to a point where I just decided I wouldn't try anymore.

I am here now because when I first met my fiancée i told him I wanted to lose the weight, but never had the support I needed at home. I felt like everyone I knew was always trying to sabotage my efforts. He promised me he would help me get back on track.

Well here I am because about a week ago he told me that as part of our New Years resolution we are going to start getting healthy. And we are doing it together. It was his idea to use the My Fitness Pal app. I was skeptical at first, but he has been a great help. He tracks all his food and does the recipee builder too. For the first time in forever, I believe I have the help and support I need to get the weight off and keep it off and hopefully reverse the Pcos.

    Sounds like an excellent plan. It is wonderful that your fiance is so supportive. Also, there is lots of great info and tips here on how low-carb and high-fat helps so much with alleviating the PCOS... Wishing you luck as you go...
