I was recently diagnosed with polycystic ovary disease. To help with the symptoms, I need to lose weight. I know that this means I need to change my lifestyle - the way I eat and how active I am. I don't have a lot of money and I live in the city. My apartment is fairly small. These aren't excuses, just information to give you an idea of my situation. I don't need anyone saying mean or obvious things like "don't eat as much" or "get off your ass" because that is in no way helpful.
Basically, any advice anyone could give about how I can lose weight, either to do with eating or physical activity, would be very much appreciated. Thank you. (link)

i have pcos too. and im a veg. what i have been doing for the last few months is cut down to like.. half sized meals. i dont knwo if you eat alot of like morning star (or other already preped vegterian foods) and stuff like that but its not the healist for you. so take one day out of the week and MAKE the food yourself. soemtimes when you pick the right thing to cook this saves you tons of money. i do it with lasugna.. because i can freeze it and make it how i want and less salt.. and bigger quanity it saves me bunches. for good things liek that try www.vegweb.com (thats vegan but you can always add things to be vegeterian). if you live in a city alot of malls have been known to have "walkers" you can usuaaly go to the secirty office or soemthing and eitehr get a little card or jsut tell them who you are and that way you can walk inside so you dont have to walk or run in the rain with creepy people.
(they ask you to let them know so they dotnt hink some speed walkers are walking back and forth all day long) also a big thing with PCOS is inches not just weight. i think its 35 and 1/2 inche waist and down is best for it. also if you are going to do any kind of walking or jogging it is best to do carido (get your heart rate up) for about 20 minuutes then walk for 5-10 then speed it up again for 20 miutes. repeating that should help. once a day, 2 times a week... however often is best for you that will do the job over time. anyways. i hope those are some okay simple ideas so i hope that helps
