Hi ladies,
I haven't been around here much. Im going to see a dietician tomorrow to talk to her about what I should be eating and what I shouldn't be. Last two weekends I had deep fried food which was also high in sodium and did NOT feel good at all

I know I shouldn't but at times its hard not to. Ive also been having a lot of acne lately. Im hoping once I talk to her tomorrow she can set me in the right direction! Its tough but Id rather not be in pain and when I eat when I shouldn't it goes STRAIGHT to my belly and stays there its like the weight just piles on as I eat it.

Yeah, I went to see a dietician last week. There are a LOT of things I need to change with my eating habits. We are going to concentrate on a few things at a time so as to not overwealm myself. I have fat on my stomach that honestly looks like I am pregnant, and since I am trying so hard to get pregnant it's kind of discouraging. I also hope that by eating better and exercising more my body will be able to get pregnant.
Let us know how you made out with the dietician. Do you think your visit was helpful?

Hi there,
That is exactly where my weight is in my belly...
She gave me a lot of info but basically told me I have to eat a diet of someone with Diabetes... its going to take SOME adjusting to for sure! Ive already cut out chips, deep fried food (except for the odd time) however I now have to cut them out completely. Along with a list of other stuff. If you look up Diabetes Diet you will find a lot of info. When we were trying to get pregnant in 2005, my Dr basically told me if I wanted to get pregnant I HAD to lose weight, so I joined WW and it helped a LOT! I still cheated a weeeeeeee bit towards the end, but before that I lost 25lbs and thankfully a couple months later while on Clomid finally got pregnant. Still took us 16mths but it finally happened. I do believe the weight loss helped. As when I got pregnant with our DD, I hadn't had a cycle in 3mths but that month we got pregnant had dropped a lot of weight... bam pregnant TOTAL surprise! Anyway we aren't trying to get prego now. However Im now finding out how Im going to have to deal with PCOS AFTER having kids. Im the same age as you, we also got married the same year as you did (saw in your siggy). It is SO frustrating, if you can lose weight it will help! Good luck!!!

Ooops I didn't say, yes it was VERY helpful to go see the Dietician... Although I initially felt discouraged and cheated (of not being able to indulge in chocolate or cookies) this is reality... and if I want to be healthy and feel good I need to do this!

I've heard some good things from her in relation with fertility issues. I had Dr Singh till I was referred to the SOFT Clinic(London) and Singh was stupid, he basically just did the preliminary test and referred me away.

OMG not him hes terriable!!! i had a nurse practisioner?? shes great shes the ony who referred me under dr mayo. yeah ive been diagnosed. shes just putting me on the bcp until im ready to have kids which totally sucks becuase i forget to take it everyday. i wish there was something else i could take. i hate meds.
