I still think I may go the surgery route sometime this year... once the recession starts to tide over. Honestly, I hate taking birth control and metformin. and all that.
But the best thing that worked for me was cutting out any and all sugars and fake sugars. That includes "crystal lite" which every trainer, dieter, whatever tell you that you can drink to replace water.. but with PCOS.. you can't. It still triggers/floods your insulin.... But the best thing that works for me was waking up every morning and doing my metform + a shake with citrus/raspberries/blackberries. Raspberries and blackberries have a high level of fiber... as well as being low in sugar.. mixed with the concoction of the cinnamon to regulate the blood sugar levels.. and the 25-40g's of protein.. (depending on what ya used)... It would keep you full all day.
CONGRATS on 90lbs!!
Are you doing a breakfast, sarah? My one goal right now is to get right back into doing the shake every morning... then lunch and dinner being sugar and carb free... unless it's whole wheat... with the GI diet.. it said for every 15g's of carbs.. you need 7 grams of protein... so I'm going to make it a part of the lifestyle...
My biggest excuse is lack of routine.. I'd always fit in the gym.. but not fit in the time to figure up everything.. I get frustrated and wish I could be like a normal chick or dude.. and just count the calories... not have to balance all the other shit out too..
But yay.. When you get to 100lbs.. you need to post
