I have been struggling with PCOS for 15 years and was diagnosed with diabetes 6 years ago. I am 46. I am seeing a doctor every 6 months but she pretty much just checks my numbers. This is why I think I need to see someone about my diet and weight. I am seriously hoping if I get down 40lbs more, which would have me at my suggest weight, that my health would be better. I was disappointed because I was doing vegan till six and I believed eating at my best. I was feeling great and energized and then my numbers were terrible. I'm not feeling as down anymore because I have already decided to go forward with seeing a nutritionist, I have kept a food diary for the last month which I think will help us figure out what the heck I'm doing wrong. I have 3 kids under 5 and I need to be alive and healthy at least for the next 30 years so I have no time to sulk lol.
