Smile Another Newbie

Hi! I've been looking around the site for the past week, but this is the first post.

I was diagnosed a couple of months ago after I questioned my GYN. Someone on another group was recently diagnosed and I was curious. I was very surprised that a lot of the issues I thought were attributed to stress (weight gain/difficulty losing, wacky periods, acne, etc) could actually be something else. When you combined the hair (chin, stomach, toes), skin tags, spots and irritability, I thought that I hit the jackpot. My husband was thrilled that there may be a definable issue and he laughed that I had too much testosterone comparable with his minute levels.

I've been placed on Yasmin and I noticed that the IR diet has appeared to be successful with other cysters. Hubby picked up the book on Friday and I'm ready to give it a shot. I started on Saturday.

I'm 37 and 260lbs. I'm looking to lose probably 100 lbs to spend more healthy times with my adoring boys.

Any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.

Chris
