I was in the gym probably 4 or 5 times a week, so lots of exercise. I lost the weight with a low carb, low fat diet. I had absent periods when I began taking 1000mg of metformin and within 3 weeks I had a period. I started ovulating and was pregnant after nine months. I really think the type of diet did the trick.
With my second pregnancy though the above didn't work and I needed clomid.
