Red face I am 4'11" and 166lbs I need some support and guidance
Hi all,
I am 4'11" and 166 lbs. My goal is to reach 115. I have had a hard time with support, I am new to this website so I don't know much about it. I have PCOS and I am trying to stay low carb. A wedding is in the future in 1 year and 3 months, and of course I would like to look good. However, that is not my only motivation I want to feel great. I would also like to try to prevent diabetes and reduce my chances of having high cholesterol, heart problems and so forth. These ailments run in my family. I am 28. Is there anyone that would like to help be my support? :

Welcome mickletoe!!! I had to come in and say hi, because I rarely see anyone as short as me here! LOL!!

We're so similar! I'm 4' 10.5", 29, and my starting weight was 155. I've always suspected I had PCOS, but never gone to get diagnosed. Watching my carbs is the only thing that's really worked well for me.

Kudos to you for starting your journey, you're going to look fabulous for your wedding!

Come see visit us in the 20-somethings forum! http://www.3fatchicks.com/forum/20-somethings-56/

Hi Mickletoe and

It sounds like everyone has already given you lots of suggestions for groups here at 3fc. I suggest finding a spot to call home. I find the support here essential in my continuing success. I post daily.

Best wishes!

Ames Sounds like a plan. Yes we can do it. Thanks debbie, tonyia and aluxa. I will look into finding a spot to call home and I am feeling blessed to have so many people giving support already.
