That is awesome. It seems like from what I have heard from others it is normally easier to conceive the 2nd time with PCOS and a lot of the time they conceive naturally with baby #2.

Thank you everyone for your responses and giving me some more options to think about. I am going to make an appointment with my OBGYN in February and see where my hormones and everything are at and see where to go from there.

My two favorite teas are Private Selections- Acai, Pomegranate & Blueberry Green tea & Tazo- Organic Apple Red. I started getting tea so I would stop drinking coffee now I am just drinking coffee in the morning and tea in the afternoon lol

I just use guacamole. I normally get the 100 calorie wholly guacamole packets at the store and just use one of those as my dressing. I don't even buy salad dressing anymore.

I guess it is the magic number. lol My goal weight is 125 also. I am 5 6 and just feel that that would be a good weight for my frame and height. If I end up not at that weight but feel good where I am at due to having more toning I am fine with that too :)

Wow you look great!

Hi Chanae. I think the most helpful thing you can do to lose weight while having PCOS is cut out the refined sugars and carbohydrates and exercise. :) I also used to take BC and Spiro but am trying to get pregnant now so I got off of both of those.

I think you can have everything in moderation. Maybe just try to substitue some of the ingredients for healthier choices or have a smaller portion than you would normally have. I am constantly making cakes and cupcakes as my side business and it is hard to resist eating what is left. So, if I am really craving something I…

I feel you guys! When I was younger I only had a period once every 6 months to once every year. Then I started birth control and spironalactone and it really helped me get regular.I was on it for 10 years. Now I am off the pill and spiro and trying to get pregnant. I was so afraid when I first got off the pill and spiro…
