Well I am getting ready to leave to go to my first endo appt. I am getting a diet plan today....and I dont know what else he is going to want me to do. And then tomorrow I have my ultra sound with my DR. Just wishing for some good luck. Hopefully no bad news. Thanks ladies....and I hope you all have a great Thursday!!!
Melissa

Well what can I say about this appt. Well I know that it gave me a migraine. I had to wait 2 hours for this DR. I was so mad and tired. He said that he didnt wanna give me any meds yet because he wanted to test my testosterone levels and I have to do a 24 hour urine sample thingy. So I go back in 3 weeks. He also put me on an eating plan....
Calories per day 1,200 Carbohydrates
Starch (15 gram carb servings) 5
Fruit (15 gram carb servings) 3
Milk (12 gram carb servings) 2
Veggies (5 gram carb servings)* 6
Meat & Meat Substitutes 4 Fat 3
That is what my meal plan says. And I have to walk 45 minutes a day. So what do you ladies think? He told me that I can only have 75g of carbs a day but by the plan it is definatley more. Maybe he was just talking about the starch.....oh man I dont know. Man this day couldnt get any worse. Thanks for listening ladies.
Melissa

Did he tell you good starches from bad starches or good fats from bad fats? I've never seen a diet plan like you have posted. Cysters usually eat more veggies and meats than starches if they want to help their symptoms.

NOPE....he didnt tell me anything like that. And all I can do is cry because I dont know what to do. There isnt even another endo or anything in my area.

The doc who originally dxed me didn't give much direction at all in regards to diet. By the time I found my gyn who dxed me I had been on a good lower carb diet for several years. He, like the other docs, just said it sounded healthy and since it was working to stick with it. I think most docs don't have a lot of dietary knowledge especially in regards to hormone problems. Every cyster is different it seems in what they need to reduce their symptoms. I decided I didnt' want to do adkins or south beach, so I found what worked for my body.
I avoid the following foods:
soy
table sugar
HFCS
potatoes
rice
white flour
caffiene
I don't eat a lot of:
pork & pork fat
I eat a lot of:
veggies
fruits
dairy (full fat)
meat
nuts
berries
olive oil
whole grains (trying to cut that out since I'm intollerant of grains)
This works for me, but every cyster is different. Some have given up grains all together, others limit fruit intake, others balance their sugars with their proteins.
Thanks for the advice but I just think that I am going to give up. I keep getting the run around with these Doctors and I really dont understand how in the hell I am suppossed to lose this weight. I have tried a numerous of times but nothing works. Who knows. Thanks again for the advice. Maybe I will try it.

hey melissa..
i know how are you feeling.. three monthes ago i was in the same situation.. back home from the gynoendo and so angrey and sad i didnt know if cry or scream so i did both!
i agree with Jashobeam.. every cyster has her own rules to deal with pcos and no one knows our body like ourselves..
for me for example i know that its better if i do very low carb diet and that i have to drink a looot of water.. that i must pack my lunch every evening or i will end eat crap.. i know this is no useful at all but i just wanted to show my support.. if there is anything i can do please ask!
((((hugs))))
