So I had a massive set back this weekend,
:-/
I ate far too much,
I felt lethargic, rubbish, and generally down in the dumps because of it,
I like slimming world I love it infact but because I have PCOS it's not the best for me,
I decided to research best possible diet and I bought a juicer yesterday,
I'm gonna try paleo again, coupled with juicing,
High proteins, no sugar, no carbs, no dairy
I need to start repairing the damage to my body, I want kids soon after I get married and at the moment I'm no where close,
What I will do, is post pictures of my 'meals' basically everything is green haha!
I'll be living off high protein foods such as chicken, turkey, which I'll buy from the butchers, I can't have supermarket bought products, apparently they contain lots of nasty chemicals, ?
Organic fruit and veg, that I'll start buying from the greengrocers, in large quantities,
Quinoa, ginger,
So, this is what I'm faced with this morning.. I'm gonna make a ginger tea and juice some greens, Urgh lol god help me! I've been reading over the paleo books, and lots of good recipes in them,
It's just when it comes to weekends, I'm worried my friends will be just like 'oh go on let's just have this take away' and I just need to learn to say, well actually no,
This isn't a diet, it's a lifestyle choice if I want to 'cure' my PCOS, everything I am eating now, including the things on the slimming world are bad for my condition, and I can feel it!
It's time I start telling people about what I have, because it is actually quite serious if I carry on with my old life :-/
I don't want to end up with diabetes, and an amputated leg all because I caved in and ate the pick and mix

Calorie Counting
I really have problems with juicing and gave my juicer away - I hate to see all the fibre going in the bin I blend everything very finely now so I eat it all or make soup with the greens.
I can't stand cooked beetroot but I do like it raw grated into salad - same with carrots - cooked, they both have a strange texture.
Quote - "I like slimming world I love it infact but because I have PCOS it's not the best for me" - when I was on the SW boards before I came back to calorie counting, there was a girl on there who did SW because she had PCOS and lost the weight and became pregnant. Will have a look where her diary is.

Yeah,
But it's not just about losing the weight,
It's about reducing my risk of diabetes, and turning some of the side effects of PCOS on it's head,
PCOS means you become insulin resistant,
It's not processed properly and your body produces too much testosterone, which in turn doesn't release an egg from your ovary and it become a cyst,
Losing weight will work, but long term, expelling sugar, carbs and dairy from the diet will really help with PCOS symptom,
You could get pregnant while your lost weight, but the symptoms may still be present, and that highers the risk of a miscarriage,
I think I'm just gonna juice once or twice per day, I didn't really like the taste, as I'm not allowed a lot of fruits because of their sugar content,
I'm eating alongside juicing, and I might use the pulp to make some sort of a soup,

I made cake out of it until I could not eat any more of it
As a veggie I eat lots of greens (and other veg) and found Kale and Brussels quite bitter when they were juiced unless I added lots of carrots but like them in soup or stews.
Do you drink things like Almond Milk and eat soy yogurts?
