If you’re a long-time reader of my blog, you will probably know that I had been diagnosed with PCOS a few years ago, and really went in-depth with how PCOS was affecting my life, but also how I was approaching the whole thing with positivity. You can read my story here, read my most popular piece here, and read my favorite piece here, if you want the long story. Long story short, I was diagnosed with PCOS, gained a LOT of weight, and was trying desperately to…
