@raevenbee It’s a loooong story haha. I went to a new OBGYN in 2018 for a procedure, and he was the first person to tell me that PCOS resolves in 80% of women (don’t quote me on the statistic) by age 30. Idk if this is bs.
But for me, I started getting a regular period unprompted at around age 26. Had never had one before that unless I used birth control, which I couldn’t because of the side effects. My other problems persisted - depression, extreme hunger, weight gain from binging/restricting.
I’m a personal trainer but have always struggled with my weight/binge eating. After years of going in circles (like, 15+ years) I cut out all alcohol, started eating more (and tracking it, and incorporating all the foods I loved but healthier so I wouldn’t have cravings), started lifting more (but not excessively), and started doing low intensity cardio instead of balls to the wall cardio.
I did less, ate more, and stopped drinking alcohol. I don’t eat dairy or meat except for fish and eggs, and I barely eat gluten. I went from 180 lbs at my heaviest to currently 128 lbs which I’ve maintained for just over 7 months now. This is just my story but after thinking my body was broken most of my life I feel pretty good
