So my name is Brittany, I live in Alaska with my amazing hubby, and our husky and cat. I have been TTC for 2 years and was just recently diagnosed with PCOS. I started my weight loss journey about a month and a half ago at my heaviest of 265lbs. 

My doctor put me on Metformin (a low dose of 500mg for now). I have been doing the P90X3 workout videos in the mornings before work. I thought I would hate them because I'm not a fan of excercising but they are actually pretty great. My husband and I also just invested in a really nice treadmill, because it was a better fit for us than a gym membership (Seriously the only gym in our area wanted $600 a year for 2 people ouch). I have been following the couch to 5k running program, and am currently on week four. I can sorta run for 5 minutes straight without dying which is huge for me! My goal is to be able to do a color run in Anchorage in June. I mean seriously can you ask for a better first 5k than one that is full of rainbows and glitter!

My diet has changed drastically as well. My doctor recommended a low carb diet. I don't have a set amount that I follow but I don't eat grains or potatoes and my only sugar and carbs come naturally from fruits and vegetables. I don't do any sweeteners not even honey or sugar substitutes. 

So far I have lost 15lbs! What I have gained is even better though. I now don't feel as winded doing everyday activities, I have more energy, I actually look forward to running, I might even be able to run away from a really slow zombie lol, and I feel much stronger. I actually feel more confident now as well, and even though I'm still far from looking skinny or fit I plan to buy a bikini this year for the first time ever (a high waisted one) because #effyourbeautystandards!

Anyways that's me, I look forward to meeting you and sharing our journeys together!
