Hello All

I've just joined this site and I'm relieved to have found you all. I have PCOS and have been trying for a baby for a year now and have also been trying to lose weight but I have tried so many different things and have not managed to shift much. I'm starting to get discourged but in the same breathe and really getting anxious to fall pregnant.

any help or advice is really appreciated

Hi and welcome butterfly

have you tried any weightloss groups? Some of the others go but I'm just too much of a cheapskate!

As for advise, all I'm doing is trying to eat less junk and reduce portion size. Its not going very quickly, but in the past I've found when it has, it all comes back!

Hi lovely,

I'm doing Slimming World and have up weeks and down weeks. I tend to lose weight every other week so I'm expecting to gain a bit this week as I lost 3lbs last week.

The best advice I can offer is to think whenever you're about to eat something if you'd prefer to eat the thing or get pregnant. It's not foolproof obviously and sometimes I forget and eat without thinking but I've lost coming up to a stone and a half since May.

You also need to look at it long term. I used to be the same and give up if I wasn't shifting weight quickly but sadly 'cause of the PCOS it's just not going to go quickly.

I generally check B&B every day so if you want some support PM me and keep letting everyone know how you're doing. It's always great top get support from the girls on here!



xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

new girl here


hi everyone.
well i am trying to loose weight too.
so heres a bit about me.
i weighed in last week at 15 stone, i am 5.3 tall.
so have lots to loose.
having a lap done on 1st september as i have a polyp in my womb and endometriosis, and they are pretty sure i have PCOS too.
according to the scan i had and my symptoms too.
i am always hungry, and i mean alway.
i love fat coke and wake up craving it.(not good)
i always fancy something to eat, and tend to go in trends with my food
one week it will be one food then i will go off that and move onto a different type of food.
this seems to have always been the case with me thinking back anyway.
i am very lucky to have a 3 year old boy, but assume i did not have all these problems when i fell pregnant with him and i had lost weight when i conceived so maybe thats how we got him, but by the end og the pregnancy i weighed 18 stone, due to me eating too much and having spd and was bed ridden for the last 6 weeks.
so been to the consultant last week and he told me to loose weight.
so i am trying again, this is the story of my life, loose weight gain more weight.
but i am 36 now and really wanted another child and to be able to run and play with the one i have too.
being fat is no fun hey!
so it looks like the only way i might have a chance of another child is to loose weight, so here goes.
i am doing it at home.
changing the way i eat and what i eat.
trying to cut out the sugar and stopped the fat coke (ouch)
i have read that a low gi diet is the way to go with pcos ?
what you guys think about it.
anyone want to be buddies, i need all the hlp i can get.
thanks for reading
x
