PCOS Weight Loss
About this episode

#280: After struggling with cystic acne, fatigue, cravings, painful periods, and more for over 15 years, Grace was finally diagnosed with PCOS in October 2023. 

In this episode, she joins the podcast to share how everything changed after finding our page, going gluten and dairy free, starting Ovasitol, and incorporating slow weighted workouts.

Less than a year later, Grace is feeling the best she ever has—with more energy, better periods, and less bloating—and now she’s pregnant with a baby girl due in May! 🥹

Her story is the reminder we all need: healing with PCOS is possible, and you’re not alone. 💛
