I felt this way as well with a friend of mine. I finally kept texting her and we hung out. We have both been thin together and thick. But if she is a true friend she will stick with you through thick and thin (literally). My friend admitted to me she was jealous and I said well don’t be jealous, do it with me and she still…

Hello Salina, nice to meet you! PCOS is something I was happy and sad to find out I had it!

I am happy to say that after AF being scares for almost…

I hate that they use it for a filler in EVERYTHING!!! I have PCOS and we should stay away from soy at all cost as it causes us to have HIGH estrogen. I am already looking for fat, carbs, and sugar. Now I am looking for SOY as well. You would be surprised at how much soy is in everything. This is why I had to start making…

Jerky!!! Stay away from the ones with high sugar like Teriyaki but Jerky is a good one, and peanuts as they are lower in good fat, sugar, and carbs.

DITTO

Vanessa WE CAN DO IT!!! I feel you on all the sings of PCOS it super sucks!! But we can kick its butt!!
