I need help

So I was diagnosed with PCOS last month and my doctor told me to lose weight, and was all the help I got.

Since I have been trying to eat healthier and do more exercises however I don’t look at my Calories intake and only my lose in calories while I exercise. The reason for this, is when I start to look at the numbers I start to overthink and panic, then end up not eating for the day and the next. Which I know makes my weight loss journey harder.

What I’m asking is do you guys have any tips for me to help but without looking at the numbers.

I was in the same boat as you, need to lose weight but every time I would look at the numbers I would over think, now I have cut out all the crisps chocolate biscuits ect and eating more fruit, I have one healthy cooked meal aday and some snakes ie fruit, I also eat rivita with abit of cheese on top that is a good snake, for exercise i do a workout DVD every night i do it for 45min to an hour, as long as you just cut out the crappy food and stick with healthy stuff and keep up with your exercise you should notice a change oh and plenty of water aday, it all will take time, just dont look at the numbers, I am here if you need a chat I know how horrible these things are xx
