I have polycystic ovarian syndrome. If you're like me the worst thing about PCOS isn't the grapefruit sized cysts, or the periods you've been getting every 9 days since you were 11…it's the fact that you get fat eating broccoli on a treadmill and your BFF orders her Burrito Ultimo "enchilada style" while wearing skinny jeans…It's the fact that skinny jeans will just be an unflattering tapered-ankle thing of the past by the time you get even halfway to your goal.
Maybe you're not like me and the aforementioned as well as the unmentioned (infertility) is worse than being fat…this may not be the blog for you. I plan on irreverently, humorously and sarcastically sharing my weight loss journey as I run full speed (hopefully reaching my target heart rate) at the wall that is PCOS…But, before you go, take note: I did use the words "sharing" and "journey"…I can't be that bad.

Hey there, I just wanted to say I know how you feel right now. Its really really hard having metabolic issues. I also have PCOS as well as having Hashimoto's (Thyroid problem) I too am on a weight loss journey. I started off as a 5'4 female with 234 lb on my little frame I was a size 24 a year and a half ago. Its taken me 19 months, but I've lost 65 lbs and 10 dress sizes. My goal will be 100lb lost, so I have 35 pounds more to go.
You can and will do it! Way to go for being an inspiration to others like myself.
