Hi :)
I have pcos and when I got pregnant with my daughters 12 & 15 yrs ago now my GP had prescribed me clomid as women with pcos seams to have problems ovulating and clomid this makes your ovaries release more eggs. has this been offered? have they investigated all other options ovarian...
hi, I have pcos and have been taking metformin 3x a day for the last few years. Im not sure if it helps with weightloss but it did help with my pcos symptoms.
Well only 1lb off this week, ive been doing lots of exercise and staying within my syns, I am a slow loser in general though. I do try and avoid the muller light yogurts and bananas as I feel they stop be losing even by just having them a couple of times a week.
How many syns do u have a day...
It depends if you think it will help you stick to plan in the week or not. It helps me because I know Im not going without.

i would do a workout, that used to shift a lb the day before lol or even drink coffee as a diuretic it will shift some water weight. But eating extra unless your subbing ss for other free food wont make much difference and maybe even make u gain depending on how much u eat
what do you make a lot of and freeze in portions?
I prefer to do red days as I can really bloat fast if I have too many carbs.
Ive been making chilli con carne with schwartz hot chilli pkt mix (5syns)and a large amount of extra lean steak mince.(free)

Hiya
I joined online as my local club wanted me to stay all the time and I just didnt have time.
As a online member do any of you know if I can still attend groups now and then if i need a boost or to buy hifi bars and cook books as the bookstore on sw website doesnt sell the bars
thanks ladies

I did the Cambridge diet for a few months last yr. I never realised how much I loved fruit and veg. Same with the atkins i tried..Couldnt stick to it for long In the end I just picked at everything and stopped losing weight.
most fruit and veg are free, depending on which plan your on depends which proteins and carbs are free. Did you get the green book at your meeting? you can phone your group leader if you need to.
Also dont worry about quantity - just stop eating when your full :)
Hi ladies :)

Had trouble concieving after coming off it and had to have fertility treatment. Diagnosed with pcos too...
Ive never eaten too many bananas whilst on any diet I dont know why but I always felt they slowed my weight losses down - alot of calories i guess compared to an apple
I did it years ago and lost weight really well but did find it hard to fit it in with my family and calorie counting has its drawbacks when u eat out or socialize.
I found that ww pro points after sticking to it for a few wks wasnt for me either and i actually gained 2 lbs. whereas before on...
wow Id never thought that. I guess im just too trusting that ppl are who they say they are. Its bit me on the ass before though and probably will again. But im not suspicious generally.
