Yeah. I have a wonderful list of medical conditions on top of my mental health issues (what happens when you neglect yourself). I have type 2 diabetes, pcos (and a non-functional cyst), a pituitary adenoma, and a few other things. But even with all of that, all my docs think I'm ok.

I will def talk to my ob/gyn about metformin. I only have seen her once trying to figure out the cyst. My fiance and I have been trying to get pregnant for 7 years (yes, 7). So I am taking what my primary doc says with "a grain of salt", but words still can be painful.

I also have about 100 lbs left to go. My best advice to you, mags, just move around for X amount of time. Do chores, can ride a stationary bike, walk around your house, dance, etc. I don't push myself to walk fast, but I make sure I'm moving for the time period I set for myself. One day we'll get to our goal weight, and that day doesn't have to be tomorrow!
