Fasting is the best way to cure PCOS. You can lose 1lb per day on average.

The only advice I can give you is to stay warm, nothing but drink warm water, rest and have happy thoughts. No mouth washes, chewing gum, vitamins or partial foods.

Muscle does not get wasted till you go in starvation. Body has a unique way of discriminating in what to use for energy.

Post fast diet will be equally important to stay healthy and disease free.

Good wishes.

dont lisent to your husband mine says the same - they don't understand the healing

happy fasting ! day 8 for me

and I've done a 36 day

at that weight I've heard of people going for even longer then 40 but listen to your body

also doing it just for weight doesn't work as well, incorporate whatever spiritual follow you have

400 calories a day for 3 months. Lost 10 pounds.

I finally had to quit because my teeth were loose and my hair was falling out. I did all this to prove to the DX that I needed help but he didn't care. I decided I was on my own.

Please consider that the medical community really doesn't know much about PCOS. The name implies it is an issue with the ovaries but it is not. The disorder is caused by the entire endocrine system not being able to sychronize.

It could very well be congenital adrenal hypoplasia. As the name indicates it is genetic.

But, back to the subject of fasting. If you do the 30-40 day fast you will need to protect and supplement your adrenals. They will crash and be difficult to bring back if you just fast.

I was very successful at my fast when I took adrenal complex with a desiccated adrenal. Lost 60 pounds....BUT, I felt so good I threw caution to the wind and went back to my normal habits. Needless to say I gained it all back. If I had kept the adrenal support up I would probably have not gained it back.

Like you, I am not a big eater. Our Pancreas works hard to produce so much insulin that it prevents any sugars from being in the blood and sends it all to storage fat. Our systems are unable to use stored fat to even things out without adrenal support. The objective should be to short circuit the overactive Pancreas and actually use the energy instead of sending it to fat. This is not the same as insulin resistance or Type II diabetes.

Your adrenals and all the glands of you endocrine should be properly using the fuel the body is given but it just doesn't respond correctly. The adrenal complex will also help with hunger

The bigotry and hatred we endure is just not fair.
We are subject to a myriad of diseases and disorders because of our condition. Including Lymphoma, heart disease, osteoporosis, Type II diabetes.

From experience I will tell you there are things you should NEVER take. Selenium, iron, DHEA.
You'll get a lot of argument about it but we ARE NOT the same as those with normal endocrine systems.
