My endocrinologist has put me on Victoza. She says it is supposed to reset my body and hormones. My pancreas is producing 3 times the amount of insulin that i need and it is going to burnout. I have lost a couple of pounds (1 month so far), and I know that once I get my diet really dialed in it will help even more. It is…

I think this is a great idea. Its always good to have supportive people around your area. What are your goals?

If you look into it.....things with artificial sweetners are actually worse for you and they make you crave sugar more. They are delicious though.

I am just starting to get my homones into balance and my diet under control, I used electrolysis and it works, I figure if I am spending the money to get waxed might as well spend it on something that will end up being permanent. Just remember that not everything works for everybody.

I have had PCOS for about 10 years, I was diagnosed in high school and I after battling with many different types of treatments and medications I've come to the conclusion that it is a good diet (low carb or paleo/primal) and lots of cardio and weights. Metformin made me horribly sick and I've always felt better after…

I have been on and off Paleo for a couple years now. I am going back on and am going back for good! I am actually going to be cooking paleo meals for others to help keep me on track. Good luck. I hope that we can share many meals on here. Good luck!
