Introduction Text I found out the hard way that I have PCOS, which interestingly is excacerbated by being overweight, but actually causes the body to put on weight. (So what came first, the PCOS or the weight?) PCOS is a preexisting condition, but shows more symptoms at any particular stage/time. This condition is also called "Insulin Resistance" syndrome. Right now, my doctor is concerned because my weight and other factors is putting my body in a "prediabetic" condition - which will definitely cause problems down the road. So I need to get into the right BMI, and significantly change lifestyle and diet. I've been put on medication for the PCOS and hope to make enough changes to eventually get off the medication.

- Change diet significantly: low glycemic index foods, limited sweets and high fat foods each day. - Lose about 40 lbs. - A lifestyle change by making healthy food and exercise as part of a daily routine.

11/2: - Incorporate daily ab strengthening exercises into routine. 15 mins daily. - Sleep 8 hours each night. 10:30pm-6:30am. --------------- 1) Eat low glycemic index breakfast every day 2) Incorporate low glycemic index veggies into lunch and dinner. 3) Exercise for 60 mins durations at least 3x per week.
