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.

Stayed the same but burning extra well

Well I stayed exactly the same weight as Monday.  But the Nurse said it's due to the heat and that most people coming in for their weigh in's at the clinic are retaining water and not losing as well. I'm not worried as I lost well over the weekend and it matters what I lose over the course of the week.  I will catch up on Friday and hopefully be in the 150's by Friday or Monday!

On Wednesday's I bring in an evening urine sample from Tuesday night.  I am usually just barely tracing but my sample from last night was burning extra well and I was a 2++!  I'm usually just barely a 0.5++ in my evening urine samples.  So not sure what is happening there but I'm very happy!

It's my wedding anniversary today.  Usually my husband would take me out for a nice dinner but this year we are substituting a movie instead.  It's so hard to not be food centered when everything in life is about food!  When there's something to celebrate, we celebrate with food.  This is what I'm going to struggle with and I have to figure out a way to get around it!
