Hi, I've got PCOS, been TTC for 5 years, was very big at first, but since losing 7 stone, my cycle has started to come back, not fallen on yet but I still have 2 stone to go before I can go back to the docs for clomid, here's hoping for my miracle. SW is working for me, so I'm sure it'll work...

It depends on your NHS trust, some its 34 or under others its 30 or under, I've got an arbitrary target in mind which takes me under 34, your doc can tell you the rules for the PCT in your area. Good luck x

Hi, once diagnosed if you're TTC and not succeeding they will start you on Clomid to trigger ovulation, before further help. If you're not TTC then I'm not sure what treatment they offer and I've never had anything offered to help my symptoms (extra hair, skin tags, no periods, and so on) hope...

Hi Jemima Doll, I've been TTC for nearly 5 years, have PCOS, so we know our issues. Been on various diets over the last 10 months so I can get NHS help, I've lost 7 stones so far, with 1st 12 until a BMI of 33 so I can return to the docs! My cycle is returning with the losses but no luck falling...

I totally understand, I am also TTC, 4 years and counting, can't get NHS help until my BMI is lower, which it is now luckily, but I have an arbitrary target to reach before I can make the appointment, 11lbs to go! X

Hi Alice, just found your diary, I started at a similar weight to you, just a bit earlier in the year, you are doing really well so far, congrats on the four stones off! Look forward to reading more of your journey! Nat x

Hi Sam, welcome, I'm new to the site too, apart from reading it for a couple of months first, I have been dieting a while now and can recommend Slim and Save, if you've done LL then I think it'll be a decent switch, the food packs are much better than I expected, its pretty cheap, esp the...

Well done having a plan and sticking to it, in fact I may do that myself, thanks

I really liked he crisps, tried them with my free points, but definitely a treat only, they were quite filling though! Salt and vinegar were the best for me.

The diet completely messes with you periods, I don't have much of a cycle as I have PCOS and that hasn't changed much alas as I really need them, but its very common for them to increse particularly at the start, its to do with the storage of hormones as you lose fat. HTH X

I had this on loads of diets before, sabotaging before I'd really begin, I honstly don't know why I did it, maybe it was getting my head properly in the game. I decided to go drastic with this diet and it changed me mentally, and I've stuck to it apart from planned breaks, so no idea why I...

Hi Pink, its very possible to lose 7stones in 28 weeks, I have acheived that but it does get harder the longer you are on it. Having a strict target has really helped me, and planning breaks if you cannot avoid real food at times, such as holidays, helps you plan to get back on it straight away...

Hi Sonja, its mostly about mind over matter, it is hard, especially after a while on plan, but play with the packs, try different recipes and try not to think about it too much. Good luck x

This is tough, cake maybe, or bread and cheese- I love carbs and 7 months without many has been tough- looking forward to a week off at Christmas, will try and maintain though

Hi Lucy, they can replace your 4th pack as a protein option on lifestyle, 4 babybels with 200g of veg, they aren't a dairy replacement. Hope that helps
