What's the point? Lumping all women together? I know some who are, some who aren't. But it depends on emotionally or physically. What's the whole question?0

I'll write a shortened version of what didnt post originally -
I've been reading up a lot about how to lose weight the healthiest way and it seems like there's so much info out there about women's fertility being affected by calorie restriction, carb restriction, eating less frequently... Which are the ways to lose weight.![:\](https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/resources/emoji/confused.png ":\")
It kind of freaked me out a bit because I want to lose around 15kg. I know the way my body loses weight easily is by eating light during the day (fruit, nuts) and then having a larger meal in the evening. I googled it and it just came up with a load of PEO
Le talking about how their bodies had been damaged by calorie restriction, one woman even said that by skipping breakfast and eating light during the day her body went into menopause at 35!
Can anyone restore my faith in a woman's body to be strong and beautiful, and not self distruct at the slightest stress like a lot of people seem to think? 0 -

I just reposted. My original post didn't post for some reason. No need to jump down my throat, I am a woman and I am not insulting women, I was referring to a lot of stuff I've been reading which freaked me out as it made it seem as if I would damage my body/hormones by dieting.

My fertility actually got better with weight loss. So much so that I had a baby in January. Just sayin'.0 -

Anyone can write something on the internet, there's no IQ test or credentials required. You don't even need training to call yourself a nutritionist. I know women who've lost weight a lot of ways, some healthy, some unhealthy, some more successful than others. There's no rampant infertility spreading among them for their efforts. To the contrary, one of the main other sites I use re: weight loss is teeming with women who have PCOS and are suddenly popping up pregnant after being able to finally lose weight.0 -
*sigh* lol my long post didn't post for some reason, I just posted a shortened version as a reply. Was referring to hormonallymamapeach910 wrote: »Ummmm..... no way in hell would anyone ever call me fragile. Women are tough.
