Let's see, for me...it was about 110 lbs gained within a year. At first I just though i was eating the wrong things...you don't really seem to notice at first because it happens so gradually....but, then the clothes got tighter....and tighter. Got to a point where I thought I just needed a diet. So, without having any idea as to what was happening to my body I started a diet. Rice, small amounts of pasta, crackers, salads, carrots, 1/2 a bagel for breakfast...etc, etc...all the things that a woman like myself (with IR) should NOT be eating...so the weight kept coming. Prior to all this...yes, I was at a normal weight for my age & height....all symptoms (for me)seemed to happen between the ages of 16-18. Prior to that, however, I was only having a period twice a year. Once I reached 18, periods stopped all together.
