WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST PROBLEM IN WEIGHT LOSS: demanding sweet tooth, getting enough energy and motivation to exercise, I also love to cook.
WHAT IS DIFFERENT THIS TIME THAT WILL MAKE YOU SUCCESSFUL: low-carb diet, finally finding out that I have PCOS. Most importantly, want to be able to have a baby, which PCOS and my weight is preventing.
ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE PEOPLE TO KNOW ABOUT YOU? I was just diagnosed with PCOS 2 weeks ago when I went to a fertility specialist to find out why I wasn't getting pregnant. Luckily I was already on the low-carb diet, so no major life changes other than having to take Metaformin and progesterone. Personally, for me it was a relief to be diagnosed. I was starting to think I was going crazy(er) because I knew something was wrong but no one would take me seriously.
I'm a mostly open person with a good sense of humor. I have a live and let live approach to life. I can be somewhat anti-social when I'm moody. I've had a hard life, but it gets better by the day as I learn to be healthier, emotionally and physically.
