Another side note........Our hearts are more important than our bodies. I used to say to people who made fun of me..."I may be fat but you are evil....and I can lose weight.....Get lost major loser....:laugh:

My heart goes out to you. My EX husband is a total jerk, I am quite certain that is why he is EX and not CURRENT. He abandoned our marriage of 21 years telling me I was too fat and because I had fibro he didn't want to take care of me later. He cheated on me at the same time. Now fast forward 2 years...I am remarried to a…

I am very discouraged with my fibro. I have so much to do and feel like I don't have time to be down and in a flare all the time. Yet this is my lot right now. I know in acceptance lies peace. I have trouble accepting it. At 45 years old, what does the future look like with pain? I need to lose weight and exercise hurts.…

I just want to say how sorry I am that mangers treat workers so poorly. I would want to eat bad too!!! People are so toxic these days, is it any wonder we FIGHT off wanting to eat out of emotions?? For sure not. You are all wonderful...keep your chin up!:flowerforyou:

thank you for sharing the dangers of the pill and migranes with aura's. I did not know of that. I don't have migranes myself, but I would not advise someone with them to take the pill then.

Spironolactone and Birth Control if not trying to get pregnant
-
In my opinion, it is best to stay on the birth control pills to regulate periods. Unregulated periods over long time can cause uterine cancer. I would definitely encourage you to see both a gynecologist and an endocrinologist and let them get you to a place where you have regular cycles and proper medication.
-
I forgot to share that I don't recommend you dose change yourself. I would see my doctor and be monitored. Good luck :-)
-
yes, I take 2000 mg per day in 2 doses. It helps considerably
-
I would give it 6 months to a year and stay with it. I have zero problems with it been on it for 14 years at 2000mg a day

I have had great success with both medications I have absolutely no hirsuitism. In fact it works SO well I don't have to shave my legs very often...nice bonus!

All you are feeling is valid and normal. I promise it gets better. If you never get the baby GOD will fill your life with something precious still.

I understand...yesterday I over ate and KNEW I was doing it and DID NOT CARE. Overwhelmed with stressful situation and I didn't care if I ate myself into the grave yesterday. I have used food to comfort my feelings since I was 12 years old. I am 45. Will it ever end?

I am 45 years old with PCOS. I hear your heart. It is very very hard to travel through infertility. I promise it gets better whether you have a baby or not. I did not get the baby. I found life to be very enriching in other ways and now I am a step mother to one daughter after remarriage. It took YEARS for me to accept…

I have been on 2000mg a day of metformin for 10 years and it has worked well. Take it with food.

Thanks for this post it helps explain what my problem is. I hate having PCOS by the way :sad:

Stuck in a pattern of emotional eating. Was proud of my 11 pounds lost since I started. Now I am up 7 pounds. VERY discouraged. I have SO MUCH weight to lose, I was on a good pattern and due to a major trial going on in my life, I am not making good choices. I know this works. I hate it when I fall off the program.
-
Thank you for that list!!!!

I am an emotional eater. I want to eat when I am sad, happy, excited, depressed. My eating cycle began when a boy broke my heart when I was 13 and I have been doing this ever since...I am 45. Last year was the worst.. My husband of 21 years cheated on my then abandoned our marriage. I threw up for 8 weeks and lost 40…

I do!!! I sent you a friend request

Good Job, very inspiring, makes me know I can do this...I have lost 9 pounds and have about 150 more to go, but it helps a lot to see success this way........Best Wishes

Mike, Church is a great place to be. I met my new husband there...made all the difference in what kind of person I married the second time. You will be happy again...maybe happier than before.:flowerforyou:

Mike, Hang in there. I was divorced in 2011 and I won't kid you, divorce is very traumatizing. My ex husband left me because he wanted a thin, young woman. I am now remarried to a wonderful man who accepts me right where I am at. If someone cannot love you thin, fat or inbetween they are not worthy of you at all. Try to…
