Getting my Health on Track

So since I have gotten married I have gained around 40 pounds and no matter what I tried I could lose the weight. I tried working out, counting calorie, and nothing worked, I was so frustrated and so after several doctors visits we figured out the problem and it wasn't my fault I couldn't lose weight. I was told that I had polycystic ovarian syndrome, which was also most likely the causes of my miscarriages. What usually causes the cysts on the ovaries is having high insulin levels that cause your progesterone levels to be low and your testosterone levels to be high. So finding this out was good and bad. It meant that I could get put on a medicine called metformin that would make my insulin less reactive to my sugar levels. Which in turn would regulate out my hormone levels and slowly make the cysts disappear, and will help me to lose weight. So thats the good, and the bad is that Correy and I could have a long road ahead of us, with fertility treatments in order to have kids.

So this Christmas, Correy and I stayed home with our puppies and had our own little Christmas. It was really fun. We stayed up all night Christmas Eve and opened all of our presents at midnight. Except for the puppies, they had to wait till morning. I finally got my Snuggie! And our big gift, I gave to Correy but it was for us, is a trip to Southern California, we will spend three days at Disneyland, a day at Magic Mountain and a day at the beach. We are so excited and can not wait to take our trip the beginning of April.
