Hi!!

I’m Kelsey!
#1 - I’m from Pittsburgh, Pa!
#2 - My biggest goal right now is jump starting my healthy living journey. I have been in a slump since I was diagnosed with PCOS 2 years ago. Now I am ready to finally tackle this and feel my best!
#3 - So I don’t love cooking - food is one of my biggest struggles - but I do love making stir fry!

#1 - My name is Anna and I am from Northern Virginia! I’m almost 26 and was diagnosed with PCOS in April of this year.
#2 - mine would be get get my period back on a regular basis (currently have it about every 50 days) and maybe loose some weight! Also want to just be on a consistent workout plan, I have tried so many times to get into shape but just fall off. I also used to be a runner so I would love to start running again in a way that is safe with PCOS :)
#3 - pierogi are my favorite home cooked meal!

Hi! My name is Hannah!
I’m from Massachusetts.
My biggest goal is to consistently get workouts in! I really want to lose weight and just become a healthier version of myself and gain my confidence back.
My favorite home cooked meal is Pasta alla Nerano (pasta with fried zucchini). I love to cook and bake!

Hi my name is Nikki I am from Massachusetts
My biggest PCOS goal is to treat my insulin resistance and be consistent with weight loss and work outs, I just want to feel better in my own body
My favorite home cooked meal is chicken carbonara…yummm

Hi I’m Kylie from Texasssss (imagine William Shatner’s voice in Miss Congeniality)

My biggest goal is to honestly just get healthier! I’m tired of making excuses and truly ready to fight this diagnosis!

My favorite home cooked meal is a yummy gluten free chicken spaghetti or spaghetti with meat sauce!

Hey all!

Kate here from Canada- near Toronto.
I have been going through PCOS for about a year now. Working on health in general- and trying to get pregnant.
I also hate cooking, but I love to have a chicken pot pie when I need some comfort food.

Hi lovelies! So glad to be here!
My name is Sam.
1-I’m from Colorado but am currently living in West Texas while we travel for my husband’s job!
2- My biggest health goal is to get my insulin resistance under control and lose some weight. It’s been a huge struggle the last 3 years, lots of different diets and workout plans with no results, and I just don’t feel good inside of my body- I’m ready to get back to feeling good. I’m hoping that being on semaglutide along with having some guidance here will help!
3- Lately, my favorite meal at home has been salmon in the air fryer with rice and creamy cucumber avocado salad! Breakfast for dinner is always a winner too:)

Hi everyone!

My name is Rachel, I’m 26, and I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 18. My older sister has also been diagnosed with PCOS (she’s how we discovered my diagnosis), and my mom says she “most likely has it”, though she has never been officially diagnosed.
1. I’m from Richmond, VA!
2. I want to get into better shape mentally and physically. I want to be more comfortable in my body. I had great control over my PCOS in college, as I was very active, and I want to get the motivation back!
3. My favorite home-cooked meal is beer can chicken! The beer helps to keep the chicken moist, and you can add any sides you feel that day since it’s such a versatile way of cooking chicken. I’m also a HUGE fan of blue crab (home cooked by my Meemah) and most seafoods!

Hi everyone!!
I'm so happy to be here surrounded by lovely supportive women!
My name is Ella, I'm from Toronto but I'm currently living in Ottawa and I was diagnosed with PCOS about 1.5 years ago.
My biggest health goal is to fuel my body properly, keeping in mind hormone and vitamin imbalances. Favourite home cooked meal is a kale, sweet potato and cauliflower soup from the oh she glows cookbook. So good!!!

I'm late to this party, but I'm introducing myself all the same!

1 - Hi! I'm Erin and I've lived in Delaware my entire life - I'm 46.
2 - I've never been formally diagnosed with PCOS but have most of the symptoms. I've just never pushed for the diagnosis because by the time I knew what it was, I was done having babies, etc. However, I've struggled with my weight since I was in high school. I've done all the diets, all the workouts, all the fads blah blah blah. I found Mounjaro in Sept. 2022 and have gone from 244.6lbs to 165lbs (give or take 5-6lbs depending on the day of course). I'm happy at this weight, but really need to get better about the workout part of this.
3 - I LOVE roast beef in the crock pot - it's probably my fave meal because it's delicious and easy. LOL
