  • Thank you, I'm working on trying to make an appt now. I'm also working on a list of questions. Do you have any ones that you think I should ask?

  • So I was starting to look into doctors near here that I could see. We don't have any endocrineists, but there is a woman's health Dr that looks promising. Two of the thing's she deals with is sexual distinctions and infertility. I want to find out more about her first and also start a list of questions. Do you ladies have…

  • I'm SO glad to know my diet is fine!! I have learned so much in the past 4 years and have slowly tweaked/modified it to try and find what works for me, and I think I finally have!

  • Thank you again everyone for your help! I have never tried inositol, but will look into it. I also was taking supplements then stopped, now I'm starting to take them again. I was hoping I wouldn't need to since I ate just a broad rang of stuff and so many veggies ... I was almost prediabetic, I was just a point away (or…

  • Thank you. What is ketosis exactly? I only eat good carbs. The only carbs I eat is in the form of apples, mango, fermented steel cut oats, one small or half a banana, black beans, and quinoa. I make sure to pair them with protein and also use them in 'safe' amounts at a time so as not to spike my blood sugar. I make sure…

  • Thank you all for you advice. The dr did want to put me on meds, but I didn't want to . After hearing of all the side affects, I want to treat it as naturally as possible. My dr said I wouldn't be able to lose any weight without them but II have lost 34 pounds! I know I'm at a higher risk for cancer if I don't get my…

  • I don't eat vegetable oils or margarine. Just coconut oil, olive oil, and really butter. I'm hoping to try MCT oil sometime soon. Also, the XO is for Trim Healthy Mama crossover. Meaning you have more then 5g fat. For a pure E you stay under that number that way your body focuses on burning just the carbs. That's better…

  • This was my day today It was a little different as I'm trying a trim healthy mama fuel cycle and they say eat a couple good complex carbs before starting. I'll post a couple of my other menu's as comparison but I don't have the actually counts as I wasn't doing MFP then so hope you all can kind of figure it out. When I was…

  • Thank you so much for your suggestions! I do already eat high fat, and my carbs are normally right around 40-100 right now. When I was low carb I made sure they stayed under 50-60. But when I was low carb I was getting tired faster and wasn't losing anymore. I'm very confused and frustrated as I can't figure out what my…
