hi there lovely ladies!
ok this may seem a bit of a rant, but I am so frustrated!
I an 23 and was diagnosed with PCOS 2 years ago, i am on the pill, and was simply told by my doctor, exercise more and eat right (which is a bit suss as you'll see below), i can deal with the dieting, i can deal with the random periods and i can deal with the excess hair (my mums italian so it was kinda on the cards already)
but i cannot deal with the weight!
i'm not obese and considered a curvy girl by my friends and family, which is nice. but i am a circus performer, at circus school, and we get weighed and measured at the beginning and end of every term, as a positive, "look how well i'm doing" thing and every time the others get weighed and measured they are loosing weight and gaining muscle, and when i get weighed and measured NOTHING CHANGES! i do at least 4hrs of high intensity exercise 5 days a week and nothing happens. and i'm worried i'll get a talking to about my dedication to the course if something doesn't starts happening soon.
i keep to a low gi diet... with the occasional chocolate bar... it's my weakness
none of my friends understand what i'm going through and just think i'm lazy.
i just want to look good in lycra like all the others, and not be told, "it's ok cause you're funny..."
anyone else going through something similar? anyone have any tips?
