The Holidays

Happy Holidays to everyone!

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving🦃. Mine was good but also challenging, as I've said before I don't eat meat so I had to find something different to eat, I ended up eating Salmon, with stuffing and mashed potatoes. I wanted to write a blog post because this year with the holiday season approaching, I find myself not having as much holiday spirit as in years past, I think it's because this time of year is all about family and loved ones, and as much as I love the family I have, I adore my niece and nephews but I can't help but think about how Mark and I don't have a child to celebrate with. I'm working towards that goal with my weight loss and working with my OBGYN to conceive a child but I can't help but think that it will never happen for us. We are also looking into adoption but that can be a long and expensive process. I also can't help but worry and wonder what Mark thinks about not having a child yet. When we where first going out that is one thing we talked about and I know he really wants to have kids. I often wonder what is going on in Mark's mind when it comes to talking about kids and interacting with children. These are just some of the things that run through my mind through out the day and when I'm laying down trying to sleep. Oh the joys of PCOS. I just wanted to get some of these thoughts out of my brain, so I figured what better way then to write a blog post about it. I also want anyone who might be thinking the same way I do, that they are not the only one. Thanks for listening <3 I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season. I will be posting all of my activities through out the season and will have some happier posts within during the month of December!

Time Flies!

Hello Loves💕   I know it has been a while since I have hopped on this blog and written a post. I truly apologize for that, but in all honesty I have not been in the mood to write, right now we are working on my weight loss, so we are at kind of a stand still with what we are going to do next medically to TTC.   I will say that for the past nine months I have been getting my cycle regularly, but unfortunately it has not been enough to have us conceive.   In December I will see my OBGYN again and that is when we will decided the next steps to take, one of which is to try Clomid. I was really hoping that the weight loss would be enough and we would have conceived by now.   It's really been hard for me these past few months, thinking about how I  should be pregnant or have had a child by now. To be completely honest it has been really testing my faith. I've been looking deep within myself and as much as I don't want to praying about it. I know I normally don't ...

New Year New Me

Just like everyone else I wanted to start 2018 out right, so I planned on working out more, eating right and everything in between. so far 2 weeks into the new year and I've all ready lost motivation. That is one of the unfortunate things about Poly Cystic Ovary Syndrome, one week I'm all gung ho about getting fit and healthy and the next week I have no motivation at all. I go back to eating things I shouldn't and not exercising like I should. I wish there was a way for me to keep the motivation going longer then a week or a few days. Latly I've been feeling unmotivated in a lot of different aspects of my life. I'm hoping this is just part of the winter blues&#128577;. If anyone knows of ways to stay motivated, please let me know!

PCOS and Me

Again I want to start off by saying I am not a professional in any way! I am just a women wanting to tell her story. Today I will share my medical history for those who are interested. I was not all ways over weight. As a child my parents did everything they could to feed us healthier food, I didn't have a lot of junk or sweets. My mom was telling me the other day that, no matter what they did I just kept gaining the weight, I was hungry all the time. Fast forward to 6th grade, I was seen by an endocrinologist, and was tested for Thyroid issues, everything came back negative. Even from the start my periods have all ways been irregular, I would get them fairly consistently in the beginning, but they would last a little longer then average. All this time my mom still concerned about my weight gain, but to no avail. I was basically told to watch what I eat and eat healthier. Fast forward again to high school. In high school I did the Weight Watcher program with a relative of min...
