Welcome to the Circus

Well, I just joined this site after being somewhat of a stalker and floating around threads gathering info for the past year or so. I felt it was time to get some outside support for my PCOS because well support helps, even if its just a blog no one reads
Anyway, let me tell my story about how I got here. AF (I picked up the lingo fast) first visited me when I was 9. I was way developed and from there well, I was never regular. I was put on bc when I was in hs. I stayed on until I was a freshmen in college. I was so active at that point I had slimmed down and was having regular cycles. Then I went back to school and gained the weight back and then lost it again by becoming active and having a really natural diet. I worked at the now defunct Wild Oats. Then I met my DF who introduced me to Mexican food. It became a staple of our diet and I stopped doing yoga. Needless to say people began to inquire if I was preggers but no I had just blown up and AF disappeared. I became obsessed with my weight but thought I could lose it with just exercise like I had done all the previous times but to no avail. I stopped smoking ciggies in Nov 07 and I figured if I could do that then I could conquer my weight and pull AF back into my life. Well, I am some lbs lighter and she hasn't returned. I was on bc but got off because I have been having wierd allergies to things. Now using cndms and Femcap for BC. Not into having kids currently but would like to have fertility, I don't know if that is strange or not. Anyway, I have been on WW for about 4 months now and it has been a real struggle to lose 10+ lbs despite some serious working out and eating right. I am getting my metformin today and I am going to try in the middle of a meal and try to stick to the healthier food to try and avoid the intense side effects. I will let you know how that goes and if it picks up my weight loss. This condition is so strange. Some of us want periods. Some of us want no periods to indicate were pregnant. Some of us just want to not have embarrasing facial hair and feel like a normal woman. I have already been through many of these stages. I just want the stage where I feel like I am a healthy me
