Hi Tracey and Toryah good to have you here please join in the more the merrier!!

Hi Tracey and Toryah

It seems we have something in common:- I was born and grew up in Nottingham but now live in Leicestershire. I was diagnosed with PCOS back in 1997. I was prescribed Xenical last year but the side effects were so bad I decided to give it the elbow. It would be great if you could give me advice on this 'low carbing' I don't know anything about it. I'm currently at ww and shedding 1lb per week... any help would be much appreciated.

Delany...nice to meet you :)

Im new to notts and finding it hard to get used to it, not knowing anyone makes it quite iosolated :(

Anyway low carbing is great for women with PCOS so i have heard, i have been low carbing for a couple of weeks now and i lost 6 lbs in my first week :D I bought a ook about low carbing...'The new high protine diet' by Professor Charles Clark and it taught me a lot about low carbing tips and tricks...really what i do is cut out ALL big carbs (bread, potatoes, pasta etc) and then resitrict the little ones...parsnips, beetroot etc...the book tells you how much carb is in most things :)

Good luck and feel free to pm me :)

Take care

My first day back today after the long summer hols!! It is an inset day today then back to my normal teaching assistant duties tomorrow. i also start my new job tomorrow working for the union as education convenor in the afternoons, hopefully i will be so busy I won't have time to eat (ha ha !!)

Heres to getting back into a routine that is good for me and everyone else in the family!!

TQ :wave:

Thanks for that info Toryah - going to look out for that book. 6lbs in your first week eh? definitely worth a try then.

Good luck TQ!!
