Day 1
Weight: 158lbs
Waist: 32in
Hips: 42in
Thigh: 22in
Supplements: 2000mg/50mg of 40:1 ratio Myo and D-Chiro Inositol, Folate, D3 (all one capsule, henceforth referred to as Inositol+), 750mg Berberine
Diet: unchanged
Thoughts: I definitely snacked too much today, but I didn't feel as hungry as I usually do. I think once I'm taking the full dose of my supplements as I'm supposed to, my appetite will be reduced which will benefit me significantly.
Feeling pretty down about myself though. I wish I had more self control to not snack throughout the day.

I've completely fallen back into binge eating sugar everyday and I've gained all my weight back that I lost at the beginning of the year, so naturally I am feeling as crap physically as I used to again. I'm determined to change this. I can't keep hurting my body like this, hurting my heart, my ovaries, my esophageal lining, my back, my brain. Sugar fucks it all up.
✔️ Three days down without eating chocolate at night (my biggest struggle)
✔️ Three days no purchasing family size treats. Eg. blocks of chocolate, party packets m&ms, etc
✔️ Three days no trigger foods
To go:
🔲 One savoury/salty snack per day MAX
🔲 Lower carb high fat high protein meals
🔲 No sweets at all during the week, one single serving per day MAX on weekend
🔲 No binge trigger foods EVER

Back up to 280. Disappointing. Been going through some stuff.
Have been on metformin xr 1000mg daily for almost two months, and I had my first period in FIVE YEARS this month! I am so excited. I love that metformin is working for me. Now if only I could get my literal binge eating under control.
I swear to God I'm a compulsive over-eater. I'll eat like thousands of calories, sometimes FIVE sandwiches in the period of just a couple of hours. It's so expensive. I hate it so much. It's definitely binge eating disorder, no doubt a carryover from my bulimia days. I am in therapy, but I am embarrassed to talk to my therapist about it. Maybe I'll write that in as my desired focus for my next session with her ahead of time so that she knows to ask about it.
I started weight watchers today.
I am excited about it. I am hopeful. If I can gain ten pounds and get my first period in five years anyway thanks to metformin, imagine the kind of success I could have if I changed my relationship with food!
Chronic pain has been chronically painful. This has been limiting my physical activity. I am STRONGLY considering purchasing an elliptical since my complex hasn't re-opened the fitness center yet. I need to move more. I am too sedentary. If I moved more I might hurt less, and wouldn't that just be ideal.

We’re talking about ‘PRE-DIABETES, PCOS & REGAINING YOUR POWER’ with musical inspiration from Angie Stone.
Pre-diabetes means you have blood glucose levels higher than usual but not high enough to be called diabetes. Prediabetes makes you more likely to develop type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.
PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) is a condition that causes an imbalance of female sex hormones. As a result, women with PCOS often don’t have menstrual periods or only have periods on occasion. It is the number one cause of female infertility. PCOS causes insulin resistance, the hallmark of type 2 diabetes.
Singer Angie Stone is a Grammy-nominated singer, songwriter, producer, actress, and mother. She was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes in 1999. “I was always on the go, and thought I was too busy to develop something like this,” Stone said. “I thought at the time that diabetes went along with bad habits, but I was the last one in my family to eat junk food.”
She didn’t realize that she was a perfect candidate for diabetes: She had a family history of diabetes and was fighting weight problems.
“I came to accept my diabetes when I realized just how many people around me, even in my own family, were living with diabetes," she says. "It gave me back a lot of courage to see all these people just like me, going places, involved in normal things, and I became determined to learn what I needed to better manage my diabetes."
Guests: Poet Lorraine Brooks, PCOS Diva founder Amy Medling, Dr. Beverly S. Adler PhD, CDE, Dr. Sara (Mandy) Reece PharmD, CDE, BC-ADM- PCOM, Patricia Addie-Gentle RN, CDE, Jeff James, and Mama Rose Marie.
Throughout this podcast, we will feature songs from ‘Stone Hits: The Very Best of Angie Stone’ courtesy of SONY Music.: https://www.blogtalkradio.com/divatalkradio1/2018/05/08/diabetes-late-nite-inspired-by-angie-stone

I had to 💩 first thing in the morning so I decided to weigh myself, aaaand…
I was 340! A whole 1.2 pounds down from Sunday.
Also I have taken my blood sugar the past two mornings. Tuesday’s reading was 86, today’s reading was 88 (and that was after being persuaded to have some ice cream last night).
I hadn’t taken my blood sugar since March, during which time my readings were consistent in the high 100s each morning. My OBGYN said my labs indicated I was insulin resistant, which can be par for the course with PCOS. I’ve been making an effort to track my calories and exercise more the past couple of weeks so it is really nice to see another measure of health improve.

Who Am I, and What is PCOS?
My name is Neva. I'm an American woman in my twenties. I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 19 and have struggled with the condition ever since.
PCOS, or Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, is a condition that causes women to create higher levels of androgens than normal. This can lead to irregular and/or painful periods, acne, excess facial/body hair, weight gain, insulin resistance, and ovarian cysts among other things. It increases the risk of diabetes, endometriosis, infertility, miscarriage, and other conditions and diseases.
My symptoms are mild compared to some, and I count myself lucky it isn't worse, but even mild cases are difficult to manage. My main struggles are with acne and weight gain, and weight gained due to PCOS is very, very difficult to lose.
I hate BMI. It's outdated and doesn't account for muscle mass or body type, but doctors still use it. My BMI says I'm obese.
I don't believe in BMI, but my waist measurement says I'm fat, and that I will believe. On the scale alone, I'm about 25 lbs from where I'd like to be.
I've been on Metformin for years. It helped at first, but since having my child, it's done nothing for me. So I'm starting this blog to chronicle my journey as I switch from Metformin to other supplements, as I try to change my diet to one that's healthier and more protein focused, as I try to find ways to increase my daily exercise.
This is a journey of trial and error. I don't know what will work. I don't know how often I will post. I don't know how long this will take. But I will start at Day 1 and keep marching forward.

Ok so this is just totally me complaining but maybe some other chronic pain havers can understand where I'm coming from,, I'm so! Sick of being told "just exercise it'll help <3" when I say i have chronic pain. Because you know what! Sure! Maybe it could help! But my baseline of pain makes that sort of movement unbearable. "Just push through it!!" If you felt like your entire body was on fire, would you want to be told going for a run would help it? No!
I just. It's very frustrating hearing that sort of thing, because while yes, sometimes moving can help, I'm someone who, despite having a fibromyalgia diagnosis, has zero treatment(because canada wait lists for referrals is atrocious ..). It'd be a different story if I maybe had meds that got rid of some of the pain and then I could help the rest with exercise, but currently? I can't even sit for extended periods of time without feeling like my back is collapsing in on itself. But yeah, sure, I can totally go on a run and fix all my pain!!/s
#not to mention another thing i get suggested is to lose weight#i have. pcos. which a symptom of that is difficulty with weight loss. ive TRIED.#chronic pain#fibromyalgia#chronic illness#also not to mention!! how many people assume fibromyalgia is fake!!!#like girl i went to multiple doctors!! had multiple tests!! leave me alone!!

The courage to try again.
This post is the restart of my PCOS journey. I felt like I fell off the rails a bit and just let myself have whatever whenever and skipped meals again.
So this is my starting point and I’m hoping this little blog spot will keep me honest and encourage me to push past the tricky parts and maybe even help someone who sees this later.
I’m not going to lie and say I didn’t spend 20mins looking for the pro Ana pages I used to scroll as a teenager hoping to find that perfect diet that will make things quick. But that’s not something I want to glamorise as a “quick fix” mentally ever again I feel like I’m in the right headspace to seriously change my habits and make progress.
So here’s the go
Medications
- Metformin (Daily)
- Ozempic (Weekly)
I’m still unsure of ozempic I know metformin will probably make me shit my pants at some point as I’ve tried it before and felt like my insides could explode but we are slowly increasing the dose so that doesn’t happen again but ozempic I’ve been on almost a year (as prescribed by my endo) and I haven’t seen much results although I’m not on full doses yet/haven’t made many changes to habits.
Starting measurements
Height: 170cm
Weight: 150kgs
If anyone ever sees this and has any meal/food suggestions or helpful suggestions in general I’m open to it.

✨💗 Introduction 💗✨
Hello Tumblr, I am a twenty-two year old Australian looking for mutuals who are wanting to better themselves physically and mentally alongside those who already are on this path :)
♥ I recently was discharged from the APU of where I live (Acute Psychiatric Unit - aka the psych ward) and so I wanted to create a form of digital wellness outside of using physical planners/notebooks/journals but also to be able to have some form of interaction with the world that isn't as comparative as things like Instagram.
♥ I have PCOS alongside a whole array of 'issues' but, I am wanting to better myself, I enjoy weightlifting and getting in plenty of protein! I will be uploading meals, prep and many things alike.
♥ I am engaged and currently planning my wedding for next year :)
♥ I have always enjoyed gaming, I played the PS1, N64, Nintendo GameCube and various other consoles growing up - I still play PlayStation and Nintendo, I've started playing PC since I got with my partner and will soon be building my own PC! I love nature, whether I am walking around in it, photographing it or admiring it. I love reading books of all kinds though, when it comes to films and alike my interests are a little more narrow but, I always take recommendations! I have an avid love of gardening, I adore all plants edible or not and I really love insects too! I enjoy writing, art, photography, cooking and a vast amount of other things.
♥ I have an ASD assessment next month which I am incredibly nervous about and not just because it is $1600 out of pocket with no rebate.
♥ Lastly, feel free to ask me anything or to drop a comment, I'll be around also, my username is indicative of my favourite Macca's sundae! :)
- 💗✨
