I am bi from virginia and ready to get back on track with my weight loss journey. I would absolutely love to have some bi ladies add me and maybe if you are in this area of virginia that would be amazing because we could be walking buddies.

Virginia here as well :wink:

This has so been my life here of late I just crave junk cakes, pies, chips, ice cream anything I can get my hands on! But at the same time a few hours later I am hungry again. I want to talk to my Dr. about it cause she is really supportive about me having PCOS but I feel so bad asking because I am just like is it because…

Sending good thoughts and prayers your way! Hope everything works out for the best!

I have been fat most of my life and I have had a muffin top also not because I wear clothes that are too small but because of a condition I have I don't know how to get rid of it but I sure as heck am trying! Thank you just had to vent a little! But something that isn't sexy in my opinion is negativity!!!

I get boils on my behind, inner thighs, breasts and on my private area also. I have hair on my upper lip and on my chin and my neck also. Which is a nightmare but I live with it nonetheless it has affected my self esteem but not my love life thank God for that!

This is amazing! I am blown away by your story so far! I just wish that I had read this when I first started here on my fitness pal. I can do it and I will lose the weight I want to lose is the way I need to be thinking like with pcos looming over my head I need to be a better and pickier eater!

I am having the exact same problem! I smoked off and on for about 15 years and then decided I wanted to quit smoking. Quit a month ago and crave sweets and other junk but I just don't know how to make the cravings stop. I have tried fruit and alternatives that are good for you like organic applesauce but nothing is working…

Congrats on the baby!!! I am a fellow PCOSer and was diagnosed when I was only 15 and am now 31 yrs. old lol! I never understood anything about pcos I live kind of in the backwoods of Va and from my experience with Drs. they never knew anything about the effects of having PCOS on the fertility side or the health risks…

There is hope for you yet!!! I have a gf that had her first child at 21 and the it took her 8 years to get pregnant with her second! She slimmed down not alot mind you but around 20 pounds which I know sounds like alot but when you want a baby it isn't that much especially with as much weight as I have to lose! I never…

Thanks so much for sharing your story with all of us! I don't want to end up taking metformin just because I am on enough medication as it is! Congratulations on your story and on your weight loss!

Thanks so much I am going to have to give this a go myself just to see if it might work!!! :happy:

As I am the bff that she is talking about I do exfoliate on a regular basis also but I have noticed in the last little bit that I have NC on my inner thighs, arm pits lol and around my collarbone region. Well at least where my collarbones are supposed to be lol! I just realized it was NC not that long ago I get these rough…

Personally I love shorter men! My bf is about 2 inches shorter than me and he is the most amazing person in the world to me! Treats me better than any other man I have dated! But that is just my preference just remember if people are going to judge you for that then they were never your friend to begin with! I have always…

The longest I have ever gone with out a period was around 2 years. I was at the time blissfully ignorant at the time until I talked to my Mom and the next thing I knew she had scheduled me for an appointment with my ob/gyn and when they done all the tests they diagnosed me as having pcos and then after being diagnosed put…

I am also ruled by even numbers lol! I can't have any of my food touching on my plate I don't care if it is all going to the same place! When I was little I loved the taste of leather and my Dad had a leather strap on his pocket watch(he lost the chain) and I used to think I was being real sneaky and would chew on it then…

5'9 221.6 lbs. Aero 17/18 Regular

That is so cute! I have the nickname Pooh ever since the day I was born! My Dad called me his little Pooh even before I had an actual name lol and I guess it has stuck for 30 years! All of my friends and family call me Pooh so that it is kind of precocious but it is me!

I also have arthritis, degenerative disc disease, scoliosis and a bunch of other crap! I was diagnosed at 18 am now 30 and am trying my hardest to lose the weight also I have been on here for 5 months and so far no weight loss! Not that I am not trying just a little harder to get up and get going everyday! Please feel free…

This is so very true my Mom had pcos also and she had me and my brother we were born a year and 2 days apart. I would suggest if you want more than one child you should try to get pregnant as soon as possible healthy wise because I have a friend here that I think has P.C.O.S. but Drs. around here find that that is just an…

Thanks so much for this I didn't now baby powder would help! I don't have a big acne problem any longer thank God but I do get the occasional pimple. I do have extremely sensitive skin though and used wax one time before and it burned so bad I decided not to do it again. It burned not because the wax was too hot just…

Hello everyone! I'm 5ft9 and am weighing in at about 231 lbs. Feel free to add me I am trying to get the better calories and stop eating so much junk some days I succeed and others I don't. I hardly excersize some days I feel like doing alot and others I don't feel like doing anything so just trying to get the eating under…

The longest I have gone without is 2 years! I didn't miss it at all but it scared the crap out of me at first because I was like where did it go and then I forgot about it for a while went to the dr. was prescribed something don't remember what now(was 8 yrs. ago) and put be on bc when bc tore me up I quit taking it. Have…

I eat everyday lol! And I am human also so feel free to add me! I also eat alot I love food!

Well I read all three of them and loved them if you're not into that sort of thing fine by me! I am also on a Lorelei James kick if you want to read some more books like E. L. James you should read those too! I will say this you should read the back to see if you are even remotely interested in it! It also says right on…

Hello everyone I am also new to this group...Thank God I found it I do belong to one other group that is P.C.O.S. based but don't feel as welcome there! I hope I do feel more welcome here! Hope to get some good advice on a few things but will worry about that later...I just thought I would introduce myself here first!

A1C most of the time deals with blood glucose spikes if you are eating anything witha high sugar content and bunches of it at a time you may want to space it out more through the day...Bananas are very high in sugar and can also cause blood sugars to spike while eating them if you want to seriously be tested for diabetes…

Yes I also have the facial hair problem too! It isn't very fun and my ex husband told me it made me look manly so I tweeze mine also but I gained alot of weight while with him also. Lost weight while working and now the weight is back on hoping on here I can lose some weight and it will get somewhat better like it did the…

I am around 5'9" also but my weight is hovering around the 220-225 lbs. range! I was constantly made fun of in school and I decided to make a change also! I am really trying to lose the weight around middle area but I will take what I can get. I hope we will be great friends and if ever you need someone to talk to I will…
