I was just diagnosed with Pcos last month since then I went from 135lbs to 124lbs I was told we could either drastically lose weight or gain weight , my hubby told me he notices how skinny I got and now I'm a bit self conscious , I've always been a skinny girl but I haven't been this weight since freshman year of high school ( 7 years ago) I'm not sure what to do , I don't wanna get too skinny but I'm not sure where to start pictures above are before and after . #pcosrny #pcosweightloss #pcos #pcosjourney #pcoscommunity

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) affects many women and can lead to significant weight fluctuations. Weight management can be particularly challenging due to the hormonal imbalances associated with PCOS. It's important to focus on a balanced diet rich in whole foods, low in processed sugars, and regular physical activity. Engaging with the PCOS community through forums and support groups can provide valuable insights and encouragement. Techniques such as mindfulness and cognitive behavioral therapy may also help manage stress, which can exacerbate PCOS symptoms. Don't hesitate to consult with healthcare professionals for personalized advice tailored to your situation. Understanding your body and what it needs is vital in navigating the challenges of PCOS and maintaining a healthy weight. Empower yourself with the knowledge and support you need on this journey.
