Women with PCOS RE: Low Glycemic Index
So I'm newly diagnosed with PCOS. Had been trying to lose weight for about 6 months, exercising and eating between 1200-1500 cals per day and exercising about 3 days a week with only a 10 pound loss.

But now I"m stuck at 286.... have been dieting and exercising (albeit not enough) and had only lost 10 pounds in a 5 month span. What did you guys do,…

Fatty be gone!
Hello everyone. I'm hoping with all of my might that this will be the way to keep myself healthy. At 25 years old, I am currently 286 pounds and feel constantly tired and sore. My big wake up call came after watching my friend give birth to a gorgeous baby girl. I saw the pictures of me holding that tiny baby and knew if I…
