Thank you so much for sharing your story. I've got PCOS too; been overweight since I hit puberty but I wasn't diagnosed until college. I've felt that same guilt, that same frustration, especially when I eat so healthy and exercise so well! I decided to focus more on being healthy instead of reaching a target weight ('cause let's be real, I may never go below 180 on my 5' 0" frame no matter how hard I try), and although I still have days when I hate my body for acting like it does, it's helped a lot with my perspective. You matter not because of what you look like, but because of who you are. I wish you all the best on your health journey and plead with you not to lose heart; healthy looks different on everyone!

Hello there! I found your blog through a link on Relevant Magazine's website. Thanks so much for writing this! It reflects what I've been thinking for a while now. It just breaks my heart when I see my friends become so wrapped up in their dating status that they lose sight of the whole point of life - pursuing Christ and making his name known. It's really encouraging to see another young woman out there who cares more about her relationship with Christ than whether or not she has a man in her life.
