Hi everyone, just thought i would introduce myself.
I am 23 years old, was diagnosed with PCOS at the age of 18 when i finially decided to go to the doctors about the fact i had not started my periods and had excess body hair.
I currently weigh 19 and a half stone and the doctors will no longer help me.
When i was first diagnosed i was informed i have the worst case they have seen in some time, my hormones are all over the place, i am covered in spots, i still have insulin resistance after trying many different pills and i have a full beard, hair all down my back, my chest, stomach, legs, toes, feet, bum....basically everywhere. Lucky for me i am a red head and most of my hair is fair so not incredibly obvious.
Well me and my partner want a baby now and we cant even get help until i am atleast 13 stone.
I really want to lose weight for myself as well as being able to get pregnant. I am a very insecure person so i guess weight loss would benefit my partner too.
anyways, i am basically here to find some motivation and find out what you have all done to aid weight loss. This week i started going to the gym and pool 3 times a week and tomorrow the diet begins but i am willing to listen to any advice and try anything.
id also like to know does the hair start to disappear when you lose weight because that is also one thing i really want rid of...it makes me feel masculine =(
