Introduction
Losing weight can be a challenging journey for anyone, but it can be even more difficult for those with underlying health conditions.

The Struggles of Living with PCOS and Hashimoto's
Living with both PCOS and Hashimoto's can make weight loss seem nearly impossible. PCOS, or polycystic ovary syndrome, can cause weight gain and make losing weight difficult. Hashimoto's, an autoimmune disorder affecting the thyroid, can cause weight gain, fatigue, and a slow metabolism. The combination of these two conditions can create a challenging weight loss journey.

Despite the challenges she faced, this Reddit user was determined to take control of her health. She started by making small changes to her daily routine, such as eating more protein and less sugar, and taking her medications correctly. She also started incorporating exercise into her daily routine, such as walking and strength training. Through her dedication and hard work, she was able to lose 35 pounds in just 9 weeks.
The Importance of Celebrating Small Wins
Throughout her journey, this Reddit user emphasized the importance of celebrating small wins. She noted that weight loss is not a linear process and that there will be ups and downs along the way. By celebrating the small victories, such as losing a pound or being able to do an extra set of reps, she was able to stay motivated and continue on her journey.
Take Control of Your Health
This Reddit user's journey is a testament to the fact that no matter what health conditions you may have, you can still take control of your health and achieve your weight loss goals.
