About

I am a current sufferer of Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). After many years of dieting, exercising, and doing whatever I could to try to lose weight, I realized that I needed some help. I've struggled with weight all of my life and nothing ever seemed to work for me, despite hours at the gym, healthy eating, and determination. I joined Dr. Bernstein on January 5, 2010 when I finally realized that I needed help in order to feel better and manage the symptoms of PCOS.

In the 100's again!

Well I'm happy to report that I made it out of the 200's successfully and am now in the 190's! My current weight is now 199.8 and as of today (1 month since my start date), I've lost 18.6 lbs!  the most weight I've ever lost!  I still have a ways to go but I'm just happy I got out of the 200's! 

I'm also happy to report that I'm only on 1 anti-depressant now and am feeling 100% better from how I felt before.  I was on 2 before but went off them as I no longer need both.

I've never felt happier and I'm almost ready to take my clothes in - I'm trying to go as long as possible so I don't end up wasting a tonne of money on new clothes when I'm just going to grow out of them right away!

Well, I'm hoping for another successful weigh-in on Friday.  Now that I'm in the 100's, I see the light at the end of the tunnel.

less than 70 lbs to go until I go on maintanence :-).

Thanks to everyone who has been supporting me on this journey so far!  A special thanks to my husband who has been such a great supporter and keeping me motivated on this diet...oh and spending all of our money for me to do this diet!  I could not keep going without the support of my family and friends.
