Im back on my diet today after being diagnosed with PCOS last month.

Im doing Slimming World as its basic healthy eating. My doctor has given me 6 months to lose weight before they will issue meds to help ovulate etc

for all you ladies, I just want you know, if you have PCOS(which I do, too!), and are trying to lose weight because you are TTC, I am proof that it IS possible! I lost 50lbs before my LO, and I almost immediately got pregnant! So KEEP AT IT!! Its works!!

people

Katie - in hoping to get to the gym on a Friday night and once at weekends. GO for an hour walk at weekends with Lo and do exercise DVD twice a week - if I even achieve half of that at the beginning I'll be happy.

I want to lose another 71lbs so it will be a slow road

So what are all your plans for this week ?

I would say it took me about 8/9 months to lose the 50lb,and I did it on weight watchers and working out about 3-4 days a week, and LOTS of water!

Same here...except I actually did ovulate last month he told me. So now I have to go in on CD 21 for the next 3 months to get progesterone levels tested to see if I am ovulating more often than not and then he said they will take it from there.
