Hey guys. I have PCOS..the lovely insulin resistance..and hypothyroidism. So with that said, I have trouble losing weight, too tired most days to exercise, and always feel yukky! I am trying so hard to get out of this "rut." I'm very motivated to begin a lifestyle change. I need friends and inspiration..please feel free to add me..and send me advice. Thanks so much. ☺

    I am a type 1 diabetic in stage 3 kidney failure. I also was injured in September and have been off work ever since. Due to my injury I have had 4 surgeries, 1 in November and 3 in January. I take large amounts of medications and also feel yucky all the time so I know what you're going through. I have been a yo yo dieter my whole life. About 5 years ago I lost 90 pounds in about 10 months. I have gained a lot of it back. We can do this! !!!

    Thank u so much for sharing ur story. I am so sorry that u have had to face hard times. I have also been a yo-yo dieter and I am determined to change my lifestyle instead of "dieting."

    That's how I lost my weight last time through lifestyle changes. I have kept up with a lot of those changes, but I have went back to some old ways as well. But back at it and looking forward to restarting my journey!
