Guest guest Posted January 19, 2005 Report Share Posted January 19, 2005 >Maybe I can start a vegetarian support group for women with PCOS. That would be a great idea. I'm lucky - I neither have it nor have close friends or family with it - but I can well imagine the terrible problems and heartache involved :=( It's a bit specialized for this group as it is set up, I suspect , although putting PCOS in the subject line would let others who weren't interested skip the message. But how about this, until you set up a group, just in case you want to discuss things that are wayyyyy off the topic for vegetarians and slimming and and and - like how to get pregnant, etc. LOL, how about going to the following: VegSlimCafe/ I have just set it up as an off-topic place where you can talk about these things - or anything else at all - to your heart's desire. Certainly there will be people who don't have, say PCOS, who might want to join in because of daughters, etc., who have it. Others might just want to be informed. As for other topics, it's a good idea to *not* have to go offlist for them - just say 'I'll talk to you on vegslimcafe' - just sign up. Right now it's set up so anyone can join and is unmoderated. Just trying to help . . . Good luck! And best love, Pat ;=) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 19, 2005 Report Share Posted January 19, 2005 PCOS has many symptoms similar to PMS. Also women with heart disease and diabetes would also benefit from it since PCOS contributes to those illnesses as well. Thank you so much for the link. I have been totally animal free for 1 entire week and am just now beginning to have some energy to get a few things done. I think I had to flush some of that bad stuff out of my body. What do you think? I was 1 pound heavier on the scale this morning. I would also like to chat with others here who have 50 or more pounds to loose or who have lost a considerable amount with this lifestyle.

Yes, that's what I'm beginning to understand from you! >Thank you so much for the link. No trouble. Just need someone to join in there to talk about these things with you, that's all LOL > I have been totally animal free for 1 entire week Congratulations! That's great - you must feel proud of yourself! And you've lost weight too - double congratulations and a big hug. >and am just now beginning > to have some energy to get a few things done. I think I had to flush some > of that bad stuff out of my body. What do you think? Could be. People say that. It's a long time since I ate non-veggie food, so I don't remember - and in any case I came to vegetarianism gradually with many stumbles along the way ;=) > I was 1 pound heavier on the scale this morning. That often happens. It'll go again. >I would also like to chat with others here who have 50 or more pounds to loose or who have lost a considerable amount with this lifestyle. Okay, guys, let's hear it!!! It's show and tell time! ;=) Best love, Pat ;=) > > > > Kirsten > > > > > veggiehound [veggiehound] > Wednesday, January 19, 2005 3:21 PM > > All PCOS and interested people/ was RE: > Becoming a new vegetarian Michelle > > > > > >Maybe I can start a vegetarian support group for women with PCOS. > > That would be a great idea.
