Thanks! I asked to join the group!

Hello, i'm in the same boat. It even says it on my profile haha! I am 26 and my husband and I have been TTC for 10 months. I just found out on Aug. 24th that i have PCOS. since then I began a super strict diet and am down 20 pounds already (in less than a month!). Feel free to add me and you can check out my diary to see…

Sorry! I just saw your reply! I'm from America so I don't know how many kg 16 pounds is.... but I've lost 16.2 pounds since August 24th. It is harder for women with PCOS to lose weight. We just can't have cheat days ro anything like that. Stick to low carb (its the best with PCOS) and you will regain energy, lose the…

Hello! I have PCOS as well and am currently TTC. Low carb is best with PCOS. Staying away from fruits is best too with our insulin resistance. In addition to that, my doctor also has me doing dairy and soy free, only lean organic meat, and no sugar/sweetener/honey for hormonal reasons. I am allowed to eat berries since…

I always look up the menu online before I go to the restaurant. That way once I'm there I don't need to look at the menu and I can just order. I look at the nutrition info and just choose what fits best into my day then. :) Also, Hello my name is Mallory. I am 26 and I just found out on august 24th that I have PCOS. MY…

Hello! I'm Mallory! My husband and I are currently TTC. I was diagnosed with PCOS on August 23rd. Since then I started on a VERY strict diet and I am already down 12 pounds! Looking for cysters who are TTC as well :)

Hello! Diagnosed with PCOS one week ago and already down 12 pounds since starting my new diet that day. Message me and I'll let you know what diet the doctor has be on. Cysters all add me! :) We can do this together. Remember then end result is the best prize EVER (a baby)! :) We got this!

Hello, I was diagnosed on August 23rd with PCOS. My doctor immediately put me on this diet: Lean meat only and have as much of it as you'd like. Basically chicken and turkey only. LOTS of veggies, but no starchy veggies like corn, peas, potatoes, etc. NO fruit except for berries because they're good for fertility. NO…

Finally someone that understands!!! Thank you for your comment. You're situation is exactly like mine! I'm going to add you as a friend. I unfortunately I think he would have to create an account to be able to use MFP. Maybe seeing it down on the app will help him realize that it's not enough? I don't know about protein…

Sounds like a good plan! Thank you!

We plan on him going to the doctor once he gets better health coverage in November. Until then, this is all we can do. Thank you for your kind advice! I'm going to try to bulk up his dinners.

Since he started his job as a mailman he has lost 25 pounds... since December. This isn't a normal weight for him. He is eating less than before because he doesn't have time at work to eat anymore. He knows this is a problem but he just can't handle big meals. I'm not looking to get stomped on... I just wanted advice.

Yes. He picks out the protein bars. I'm going to stop nagging. Thanks for turning the tables, that helped... I wouldn't want him nagging me about losing weight. Sorry... I'm just very frustrated with it all. I'm going to ask him about the nuts be he normally doesn't have time during the day to snack. I have signed him up…

SOMETIMES I can talk him into a PB and banana milkshake at night but it's usually not fruity enough for him so he turns his nose up lol (He says the PB overpowers everything). I told him to eat a spoonful of PB and he thought that was gross (WEIRD it's one of my favs haha probably why I'm the one trying to lose). GET THIS!…

Ok I was asking for help and obviously this DOESN'T help the situation. BYE. He's my husband and I care about his health. It is my problem.

I'll check out the carnation breakfast.... Doctor isn't an option but will be once work benefits kick in in November.

I worry as the days get hotter getting into the summer that he will feel week out in the hot weather all day long. He has been getting sick easily too.
