As a PCOS girlie, some days are rougher than most. Just existing is annoying because you can be doing everything right for your body but your body is just - 'lol fvck you'.

The 141 guys + LV would be the kindest partners in trying to be supportive BUT PRICE,ALEJANDRO & RUDY.

I just know they're going to do their research on what this is and how best to help you out.

You have debilitating period pain?? they're stocking the strongest painkillers of your choice. You're insulin resistant?? they're finding out good recipes that don't mess up your sensitivity. You have to do slower workouts, they're working out with you at their pace but it's together.

I love when people do more than throw you a 'just eat better and work out' kind of vibe without finding out more but these men?? I genuinely think they wouldn't go off superficial knowledge, they'd attempt to understand better especially if you're a s/o or someone close to them.

oh goodness — i absolutely agree! i don’t have pcos but from what i’ve seen and heard, i know it’s damn near living hell; you guys are very much heard, loved, & seen ❤️‍🩹💐.

& yes yes yes, all three of them give off major husband energy. like you mentioned, they would actually take the time to do the research on the condition instead of half-assing like most do. if you have any other medical conditions (diabetes, anemia +) they would most definitely take their time to do research on those as well! *sighs* they would be so freaking sweet & helpful.

special shoutout to rudy: for some reason, i feel like if he weren’t in the military, he would definitely be in the medical field — he definitely has aunties who either were or are nurses and i see his grandma / nana having a whole book of mexican holistic remedies!!

EVERYONE DO A 4 DAY FAST (or more)

I recently finished my longest full fast (84hours), and it was the best decision I've made, so I want to tell you a bit about how it went and what I've noticed since finishing it.

I had binged the night before I started, so the next morning I wasnt hungry, and didn't feel like eating until late afternoon. I drank a lot of water (~3.5L throughout the day) to prevent hunger, and went to bed early so I couldn't eat. I got a bit hungry around lunch time on the second day, but after that I can honestly say I didn't feel hungry for the rest of my fast. I was surprised, I'll admit I'm one of those people with a bottomless stomach, and I'm terrible at knowing when I've had enough. It's amazing how quickly my body adapted from visibly shaking from sugar cravings to looking at or smelling foods and feeling absolutely nothing. After the second day I had normal energy and was able to do the odd workout and keep going for walks. I was thinking clearly and productive. The only issues I had were a) finding something to do to fill the time and b) the intense nausea I would get at night time from taking my vitamins without food. This was only an issue if I took longer than usual to fall asleep, so exercising before bed helped. I didn't feel hungry when I ended my fast- I am diabetic, and my blood sugar level dropped and wouldn't have risen unless I ate. I was worried eating anything would kind of 'open the floodgates' and I'd binge again, but actually this didn't happen. I went to my dining hall the next morning because I was a bit peckish, had a piece of bacon and half a hash brown, and then threw out the rest of my food because my body told me it had had enough.

Since ending my fast, I don't have sugar cravings: going cold Turkey really worked for me. I eat semi-regular meals, but I'm never really "hungry", so I don't worry about binging. I'm also fine with throwing food away: I think letting my body know what real emptiness feels like helped it learn when I've had enough, and fasting in general just killed any personal connection to food that made me feel bad about not finishing it. I lost about 4kg in my fast, which honestly isn't my record, but I've kept it off since with pretty normal eating habits (2 to 3 meals/ day with no snacks). Personally, I love that now my body physically revolts when it doesn't want food, and when it does, it doesn't demand it.

Moral of the story: do a fast. I would've loved to do a week, but just do however long you can and know it will help. The first 2-3 days will be the hardest, so remove all temptations and see how you feel from there, and you will be surprised at how easy it is. If you have any questions or want any advice you can comment/ message me and I'll help. I know fasting isn't new but I just feel so completely satisfied with my experience and want to help my disordered babies out <3

[suzieb-fit]

So yeah, I'm still pretty mentally traumatised over the blender thing. I cannot describe the sheer hell of the experience itself, never mind the hysterics, blood, hysterics, panic and the rush to hospital etc. immediately after.

Anyhooooo......onwards to a new day.

Getting dressed for my little walk was fun 😂. Half an hour in the beautiful morning sun.

Sipping on my sea salt and ACV water.

Home for breakfast.

Day two of my HBD thing. It doesn't particularly recommend fasting, but that's still in my life, unless told otherwise. I still follow the other lifestyle stuff from different sources. I just like to branch out and try new things. Ever evolving....

So this is my second (and last) day of veggies only.

Breakfast was cooked avocado, mushrooms and green pepper. Salt, pepper and herbs.

Black coffee (ugh) with cinnamon, sea salt and nutmeg.

Herbs and spices are definitely recommended for the programme.

After that, it was time to simply chill.

No workouts. Just my usual half hour morning walk earlier, and another one after a bit of a read.

I need self care. Plus I'm type one diabetic, and the current "veggies only" phase is causing my blood sugar to seriously drop. I've reset my insulin pump to an extremely low basal dose level. That's all I can really do

So that's another reason to stay away from anything too active right now.

Although, that changed significantly a little later, so I then had to increase my insulin dose. Meh. It never shows any consistency, lol.

I went out for another walk after lunch, which felt like the best thing to do.

An hour, this time.

Lunch was the rest of the soup I made yesterday. Added a few chopped mushrooms.

Dinner will be another big salad and the other half of avocado.

Phase two starts tomorrow. Two weeks for this one.

Three meals, five hours apart.

This is where protein comes in. Plus one daily apple, and a few fruit options to include with meals. Only one choice for each, and a small amount.

Still no dairy or fat, apart from whatever natural fat is in the protein.

I'm doing ok.

Fatty liver anon here. Did they say why you have it specifically? Its very rarely caused by just being fat, it's usually health issues that can also make you gain weight. If it's alcohol related that's an obvious fix (harder in practice of course), if not there are a few different routes to go down

I'm 5'6 and 240lbs (gained 70lbs so far intentionally after gaining 35lbs from pcos, learning you can't just lose pcos weight with diet and exercise, and realising just being a feeder wasnt what I needed) and while they did say it can sometimes help to lose weight it's more about the pcos which caused insulin resistance and high cholesterol (for other people it can also be from diabetes, underactive thyroid, high blood pressure etc).

As I said I take inositol for the IR but I did also make a lot of lifestyle changes. I've had improvements whilst also lowering how many simple carbs I have and eating more complex carbs and fats instead (dairy isn't great for insulin resistance so I eat so many avocados, nuts and other plant oils as well as oily fish), taking those little cholesterol drinks containing plant sterols, and upping my fibre a lot with both oat bran and psyllium husk. I swim, go on walks, lift weights, and do some of Dr la thoma's YouTube functional bodyweight workout videos+stretches (being specific cause I do rate them for fat people, shes tiny but most are about functionality and ability over athleticism— We aren't in her mind but it's adaptable and useful) for general health/wellbeing and to hopefully keep the visceral fat % and liver fat lower as I gain. I also take milk thistle tablets because some studies show it's good for repairing and protecting the liver. I can't say what specifically has helped the most but I'm keeping it all up because it's working, you'll probably end up doing some experimenting. It sounds overwhelming written out like this but it really wasn't

They said I should try weight loss as well of course but I explained "it would be bad for my mental health so tell me what you'd tell a skinny person" and they dropped it. They tell me I'm obese every time I see them of course because I'm fatter every visit but accept it's not the sole or best treatment option. If you have an ED history they can be more understanding about avoiding WL. I'm personally willing to do anything except lose weight unless I get big enough that I can then lose the 5% recommended (visceral fat goes first, or so they say, and that's around what people can reliably keep off) and still feel good about my body.

One nurse tried to say something about me being on testosterone and only stopped when she realised the gel doesn't metabolise the same way, I'm sure you know what they can be like just don't be surprised if someone decides to blame T. Trans broken arm syndrome strikes again.

Sorry this is long and very ()()()(), I hope it's helpful enough to compensate.

This is wildly helpful! My doctor hasn't even called me since testing, this is just what I've seen from the results of the ultrasound and MRI, but I do know that at the time my liver values were evaluated they did discover I had an underactive thyroid. I've been placed on a synthetic thyroid hormone for the last month or so. Hopefully that helps? I also know that prior to my diagnosis I was eating a ton of sugary foods and carbs, so I've been trying to cut those and eat a more mindful diet. I'll look into the supplements and videos you mentioned as well! Thank you so so much for all your advice!! 💜💜💜

What are the Causes of Late Periods? A period is a natural part of a woman's life, and its arrival, or lack thereof, can be a source of curiosity or concern. While a late period might send your mind racing to pregnancy tests, there are numerous reasons why your period might be behind schedule. Let's discuss the world of menstrual cycles and explore the top causes of late periods.

Pregnancy: The Obvious One

We can't ignore the most common reason for a missed period – pregnancy. If you're sexually active and haven't used contraception, a late period could be the first sign of a bun in the oven. However, it's important to note that pregnancy tests might not be conclusive in the very early stages. For accurate results, wait at least a week after a missed period before taking a test. You can also visit or take an online consultation with our specialist doctor Geetanjali Thakur , the best Gynecologist in Karnal.

Hormonal Harmony: When Things Get Out of Sync

Our bodies are like intricate orchestras, and hormones play the lead role in regulating our menstrual cycles. When these hormones get out of sync, it can lead to a late period or even missed periods altogether. Here are some common hormonal culprits:

●     Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS): PCOS is a hormonal imbalance that affects ovulation, leading to irregular periods or their absence.

●     Thyroid Issues: An overactive or underactive thyroid can disrupt hormone production, impacting your cycle.

●     Birth Control: Starting, stopping, or switching birth control methods can disrupt your cycle for a few months as your body adjusts to the hormonal changes.

●     Perimenopause: As you approach menopause, your estrogen levels naturally decline, leading to irregular periods or their absence.

Lifestyle Choices: Big Impact on Small Cycles

Our daily habits can significantly impact our menstrual health. Here's how some lifestyle choices can cause a late period:

●     Stress: Chronic stress wreaks havoc on our hormones, including those regulating periods.

●     Weight Fluctuations: Dramatic weight loss or gain can disrupt ovulation and lead to irregular periods.

●     Excessive Exercise: While exercise is great for overall health, excessive workouts can put stress on your body and cause missed periods.

●     Diet: Crash diets or restrictive eating habits can deprive your body of essential nutrients needed for a regular cycle.

Medical Conditions: When Other Factors Come into Play

Certain medical conditions can also affect your menstrual cycle and you should search Gynecologist dr near me and get the best solution, here are a few examples:

●     Chronic illnesses: Conditions like diabetes, celiac disease, and autoimmune diseases can disrupt hormone regulation and lead to irregular periods.

●     Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID): This infection of the reproductive organs can cause irregular periods.

●     Uterine fibroids: These benign tumors in the uterus can sometimes cause heavy or irregular periods.

When to See a Doctor

While a late period is sometimes nothing to worry about, there are situations where it's best to consult a Gynecologist near you. Here are some red flags:

●     You miss multiple periods in a row (especially if you're not pregnant or breastfeeding).

●     Your periods are unusually heavy or painful.

●     You experience abnormal vaginal bleeding.

●     You have sudden weight loss or gain.

●     You suspect you might have an underlying medical condition.

Taking Charge of Your Cycle

Understanding your menstrual cycle and its potential disruptions empowers you to make informed choices about your health. Here are some tips for keeping your cycle on track:

●     Maintain a healthy weight.

●     Eat a balanced diet.

●     Manage stress effectively.

●     Exercise regularly, but don't overdo it.

●     Track your periods using a calendar or app.

●     Talk openly with your doctor about any concerns.

Remember, a late period doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong. However, if you're concerned, don't hesitate to consult a Gynecologist near me. They can help you determine the cause and recommend the best course of action.

Additional Considerations

Fitness for seniors

As we age, our bodies start to experience more health problems and get weaker. But that doesn't mean that senior citizens need to sit still.

In fact, staying active and fit is one of the best things they can do for their physical, emotional, and mental health. Many senior citizens may think that they're too old or too frail to exercise, but that's not the case. There are many low-impact activities that are specifically designed for seniors, such as walking, water aerobics, chair yoga, and tai chi.

These exercises can help improve mobility, flexibility, and balance, reduce pain and stiffness, and prevent falls. One of the best benefits of fitness for seniors is that it can help prevent and manage chronic diseases such as arthritis, diabetes, and heart disease.

Exercise can also improve mental health by reducing stress, anxiety, and depression, and boosting mood and self-esteem. But where should seniors start? Before starting any fitness program, seniors should consult with their doctor to ensure that they are healthy enough for exercise. They should also start slowly and gradually build up their endurance and strength. It's also important to stay hydrated and stop any exercise that causes pain or discomfort.

Seniors can also benefit from working with a personal trainer or joining a senior fitness class. A personal trainer can create a customized workout plan that fits their specific needs and goals, while a fitness class can provide a supportive and social environment that encourages regular exercise.

In addition to exercise, seniors should also focus on a healthy diet and getting enough sleep. Eating a balanced diet that includes plenty of fruits, vegetables, lean protein, and whole grains can provide the nutrients needed to fuel the body and reduce the risk of chronic diseases. Getting enough sleep can help seniors feel rested, energized, and ready to tackle their daily workouts.

In conclusion, staying fit and active is essential for seniors to maintain their physical, emotional, and mental health. With the right exercise program, seniors can improve their mobility, flexibility, and balance, prevent and manage chronic diseases, and boost their mood and self-esteem. So if you're a senior or know someone who is, encourage them to start moving and enjoy all the benefits that fitness has to offer.

The Ultimate Guide to Losing Belly Fat: Strategies for a Trim and Toned Midsection

Dreaming of a flat and toned stomach? You're not alone. Belly fat is a common concern for many people, but with the right approach, you can achieve your goals and reveal those sculpted abs. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore the best strategies for losing belly fat, including the use of belly fat burners, effective dietary and exercise practices, and lifestyle adjustments to support your journey to a slimmer midsection.

Understanding Belly Fat

Before diving into the strategies for losing belly fat, it's essential to understand the different types of fat and why belly fat can be particularly stubborn. There are two main types of belly fat:

Subcutaneous Fat: This type of fat lies just beneath the skin and is often referred to as "pinchable" fat. While subcutaneous fat can contribute to a protruding belly, it is less harmful to health compared to visceral fat.

Visceral Fat: Located deep within the abdominal cavity, visceral fat surrounds vital organs such as the liver, pancreas, and intestines. Excess visceral fat is associated with an increased risk of various health conditions, including heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain cancers.

Best Strategies for Losing Belly Fat

1. Incorporate Cardiovascular Exercise:

Cardiovascular exercise, such as running, cycling, swimming, or brisk walking, can help burn calories and reduce overall body fat, including belly fat. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity cardio or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity cardio per week, supplemented with strength training exercises to build lean muscle mass.

2. Focus on High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT):

HIIT workouts involve alternating between short bursts of high-intensity exercise and periods of rest or low-intensity activity. HIIT has been shown to be particularly effective for reducing abdominal fat and improving overall fitness levels in a shorter amount of time compared to traditional steady-state cardio.

3. Incorporate Strength Training:

Strength training exercises, such as squats, lunges, deadlifts, and planks, can help build lean muscle mass and boost metabolism, leading to increased calorie burning and fat loss. Aim to include strength training workouts targeting the major muscle groups at least two to three times per week.

4. Adopt a Balanced Diet:

Focus on consuming a balanced diet rich in whole, nutrient-dense foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats. Minimize intake of processed foods, sugary snacks, and refined carbohydrates, which can contribute to belly fat accumulation and overall weight gain.

5. Monitor Portion Sizes:

Practice portion control to avoid overeating and excess calorie consumption, which can lead to weight gain and belly fat accumulation. Use smaller plates, measure serving sizes, and pay attention to hunger and fullness cues to help regulate food intake.

The Role of Belly Fat Burners

Belly fat burners are supplements or compounds designed to enhance fat burning, particularly in the abdominal region. These products often contain ingredients such as caffeine, green tea extract, and forskolin, which are believed to increase metabolism, promote fat oxidation, and support weight loss. While belly fat burners may offer some benefits, they are not a magic solution for losing belly fat and should be used in conjunction with a balanced diet and regular exercise for best results.

Lifestyle Adjustments for Belly Fat Loss

In addition to diet and exercise, making lifestyle adjustments can help support your efforts to lose belly fat:

Get Adequate Sleep: Aim for seven to nine hours of quality sleep per night to support hormone balance, metabolism, and overall health.

Manage Stress: Chronic stress can lead to increased cortisol levels, which may contribute to belly fat accumulation. Practice stress-reducing techniques such as meditation, deep breathing exercises, or spending time in nature.

Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to stay hydrated and support digestion, metabolism, and overall health.

Conclusion

Losing belly fat requires a multifaceted approach that includes regular exercise, a balanced diet, lifestyle adjustments, and potentially the use of belly fat burner supplements. By incorporating cardiovascular exercise, strength training, and HIIT workouts into your routine, adopting a balanced diet rich in whole foods, and making lifestyle adjustments to support overall health and well-being, you can achieve your goals and reveal a trim and toned midsection. Remember to be patient and consistent, as losing belly fat takes time and dedication. With the right approach and mindset, you can say goodbye to belly fat and hello to a healthier, happier you.

Incorporating Supplements Into Your Routine Will Maximize Your Health Benefits

In order to maximize your health and well-being an appropriate diet, and regular workouts are vital. Even the most nutritious food choices may not be sufficient to provide your body with the nutrients it needs. This is where supplements can be helpful. In this post we'll explore the benefits of incorporating supplements into your daily regimen and ways to aid in maximizing your health.

Food Gaps to Fill

With a nutritious diet, it's hard to absorb all the nutrients your body needs to perform optimally. There are ways to fill in nutrition gaps with supplements. These will make sure that you receive all the nutrients, vitamins and minerals. essential nutrients.

For example, many people struggle to get enough omega-3 fatty acids that are essential to the health of your brain and heart. Supplements with fish oil can be the best way to make sure that you're getting sufficient amounts of these essential nutrients. Vitamin D can also be useful for those who do not receive enough exposure to sunlight. It is crucial to improve bone health and immunity.

Improved Athletic Performance

Supplements can be useful to fitness lovers and athletes who want to improve their endurance and recover. Creatine, as an example, is a popular supplement to increase muscle strength and bulk. BCAAs (branched-chain amino acids) can also lessen muscle soreness and aid recovery.

The nitric oxide and caffeine boosters could also help to improve the endurance and performance of exercise. It's essential to note that supplements are not a replacement for a healthy lifestyle and routine of exercise. In order to maximize the benefit of supplements, they must be taken in combination with a healthy diet and regular physical activity.

Supporting Brain Health

The support of brain health and function can be accomplished with supplements. Examples include omega-3 fatty acids and specifically DHA which are vital for healthy brain function and have been found to boost cognition and memory.

In addition, supplements like ginkgo biloba and phosphatidylserine can aid in improving cognitive performance and reduce symptoms of age-related cognitive decline. The supplements boost blood flow to brain cells, and enhance their overall health.

Lowering Irritation

Inflammation is a normal response in the face of infection or injury however, chronic inflammation may contribute to a variety of diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes, and autoimmune conditions. Vitamins like turmeric, ginger, and omega-3 fatty acids may help lower inflammation as well as promote general health and well-being.
