I wonder if Victoria Beckham keeps her weight low because of her pcos. I'm curious to know how she was able to get pregnant 3 times!

i would guess she keeps her weight in check because she is a celebrity and always being critiqued regardless.
and as someone who can afford expensive fertility options, that would be my guess for her three kids.

I heard that Posh Spice changed her diet because of her PCOS and got pregnant because of the diet change. Based on what I remember reading about her, I don't think her symptoms were as severe or numerous as those suffered by most women with PCOS.
I was able to talk to kate gosselin via email right before the show became really popular. We talked about how doctors didn't believe that she had pcos because she was a size 6 at the time. She was really nice to reply to my emails. Too bad all that changed....

I read somewhere that victoria beckham had pcos. In the article, she was complaining about her irritability and said it was because of her pcos. In other articles/TV, she was reported to have lots of acne to the point of being teased in school.
Other celebs I've heard who have pcos: Jules Oliver, Emma Thompson

I read Victoria Beckham's autobiography just because I wanted to see what she is doing right with PCOS since she looks great and has children. Her first child was unexpected she said. She did say she eats when she gets pregnant but otherwise is very strict. I am not sure how she got pregnant the other times.
She seems to be very disciplined. She was a little bigger when she started the Spice Girls and that is when she was diagnosed. Maybe she has more of a LOCAH variety since she has all boys possibly because of more testosterone in the womb. She also has no hips or boobs (minus the boob job) of course she has no fat either. Anyway I see her as an inspiration as someone who can keep the beast under control. She is beautiful.
she's a good inspiration, but I think to skinny...but women are beautiful at every weight so don't push yourself to hard to look like her, for most people, I know me for sure we don't even have the bone structure to pull that off! And Im fine with that!

It's good to hear that she admits to being very strict with what she eats. Nothing worse then this celebrities who say they don't do anything to get their bodies.
