I was wondering if anyone has seen improved PCOS caused skin conditions with LC diet? Ex. improved dark spots, acne, skin tags, hirsutism.

Secondly, what is your regimine of moisturizing? What do you find works for keeping away wrinkles and acne at the same time? I have yet to find a combination of products that I really like.

Kay,
Thanks for the reply. I'm a little worried about my skin because I can see faint lines and still get occasional breakouts. Anyway, maybe all will go away in time with this new diet.

It would be great to know someone in this area. I hope the move goes well for you.

hi,
i tried to send you a privarte message but it didnt work. anyway, we have alot in common. i have had someof hte same problems in the past and they went away eating lc and eating flax. that was about 4-5 yrs ago and had no idea i was lcarb...i just started listening to my body and i quit eatin bread and started eating salmon and it turned out lcrb and i didn evenknow it. i would go to chipoltles ( god i miss that!) and get the fajita burrito and eat all but the tortilla because bread made me bloated. and extra guacamole!! and the weird thing was ( i was already thin...about 118 and size 4) and only lost about 4 pounds but was swimming in all my clothes. my ex husband and i could not figure it out?? went down to a very loose size 2. i also walked about 3 miles every day rain or shine....anyway, im fat now and feel yukky so want to get back to that way of feeling...i felt great. periods were a breeze..no PMS...try to send me a pm and see if i can retrn it...and i will giv eyou my number...dont worry , you will start to feel good ( and look good soon) and my skin was really healthy looking. i am 36 and i have never been guessed even 30. it really does work...let me know how to reach you. what part of cols do you live in? i was in old worthington and then dublin and now will be in upper arlington ( by the wild oats)...take care, i DONT want to make this drive.....YUK!
