natalieThis is such an annoying disorder!!! Anxiety, weight, hairy, acne, fatigue!! YUCK!!!! I’d like to add to the other suggestions and that is Yasmine BCPills. I wonder if you also have PCOS. I believe I have both PCOS and LOCAH. I’ve only been on treatment for 2 months with Dex & Yasmine and I’m feeling better, not perfect, but I have lost 3 pounds!!! Also, as Kristy mentioned, I try to eat more often and always have a really good breakfast. I’ve noticed over the last few weeks, my portions are smaller, I get fuller faster. An average day for me is: 2 scrambled eggs, 2 whole wheat toasts for breakfast. At around 9;30 or 10:00 I eat an apple and some cheese. Then I eat lunch around 11:30 or 12. I have whatever leftover I have in the house, but my favorite lunch is a Zesty chicken bowl salad at Taco Bell (minus the chicken, add lettuce). Then I eat a snack around 3-4:00p, maybe a salad and a cookie, fruit, a 1/2 PBJ. Then dinner. I usually have some kind of treat in the evening as well. The last couple of days it has been a couple pieces of little Halloween candy.
I really believe that us with LOCAH, we mostly have low blood sugar, etc., and really need to eat 5 times a day. Good luck!!
