I also ran across low carbing by accident but found stories of people with PCOS and Hypothyroidism losing weight with it. I started crying when I read the information. I've had PCOS and hypothyroidism for 7 years and would work out 6-7 days a week and eat around 300-500 cal. a day without being able to lose much weight. Needless to say this gave me hope! I started with a nutritionist in April and lost 35lbs but stopped losing. I read CAD (The Carbohydrate Addicts Diet book) and found that for people with insuline resistance you have to save your high carbs for once a day. It's starting to make a difference. I'm soooo glad to find LC and this forum, I was on my way to being anorexic to try to lose some kind of weight when I feel I've been saved!!! So there IS light at the end of the tunnel!!
