"Plus-Sized people aren't hugboxed enough here" | r/PCOS

>As someone with insulin resistance, I support this message. Currently in a plateau myself that's causing the scale to creep up so obviously calorie deficit clearly isn't enough for me, especially as a larger person.

If the scale is creeping up then you aren't in a calorie deficit

>Bruh I'm eating 1100 cals a day and working out 3x a week, and it took me 4 months to lose 4lbs and I've gained back 2 like what is this shit 😭

Probably didn't include the Starbucks drinks and weekly "cheat day" into the equation

>Thanks for saying this. I'm so sick of people claiming that as long as calories in are less than claories out you will lose weight. It's just not true because the PCOS adapts and decides how many calories our mitochodria are goinig to burn but we're still expected to function at 100% even if our brains are in the process of switching themselves off from a lack of calories and nutrients.

Ah yes, brain switch themselves off the second you aren't consuming over 3000 calories a day.
