Trouble TTC

PCOS Ladies

I just got period #2 without meds after 14 years and I have lost a total of 15 pounds so far! Apparently walking was all I needed all this time!

    That's awesome!  Congrats!!

    I'm not going to lie, losing 20 pounds is when my cycles went from regular to... WAY screwed up (well that and I was 4 months of BCP).  And it was weight I needed to lose.  I lost another ten and now have been stuck at or around the same weight for almost 6 months.  It never goes up or down more than 4 pounds, no matter how hard I try or what I do.  Even with an average daily deficit of -1000 to -1500, it doesn't move at all. 

    Granted, my body is fighting hypothyroidism, PCOS, connective tissue disorder, and steroids, plus almost 2.5 the normal testosterone.  I'm just happy I haven't GAINED weight at this point.

    I have to know what your video in your siggy is from.  I'm dying to know what she is saying!  LOL
