If you’ve got PCOS—polycystic ovary syndrome—and you’re like most women who do, your first symptoms probably had to do with monthly cycles or problems getting pregnant, and that’s what many doctors treat first.

You've probably heard that weight is all about "calories in, calories out" throughout your weight loss journey. This theory is based on the idea that you're bound to lose weight if you burn more calories than you eat.

Weight care isn’t an elementary school math equation. Yet diet culture tells us that it’s all about the energy in (number of calories eaten) minus the energy out (calories burned). And guess what? It’s a ridiculously outdated concept!

Wouldn’t it be something if we could lose weight as easily as we lose our keys? We’re often sold quick-fixes and follow fads that don’t last and promise results that don’t deliver.

Of the estimated 5 million American women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), between 40 and 80 percent find weight management a challenge. What gives? Well, as you know, PCOS is a hormonal disorder—and hormones affect many systems in your body, including those that help regulate body weight.

We make sacrifices every day—whether it’s sleeping a little less, so we have time to grab coffee on the way to work (a contradictory behavior many of us are guilty of), skipping dinner with friends to spend time with the family, or nixing our online shopping habits to save money. But when it comes to weight loss, we tend to view the sacrifices we make as majorones. (Yes, even if it’s something we really want.)

Starting something new can be scary—and that can be especially true of beginning a weight care program. (In fact, there’s a word for that very real fear of something new or unfamiliar: neophobia.) Is it normal to have some worries? Absolutely! Should they hold you back? Absolutely not!

Shaun Santiago’s weight has been an ongoing battle for almost a decade. It fluctuated for years—he’d lose weight, only to gain it again. Before embarking on his long-term weight care journey with Found, the 48-year-old’s cholesterol was high, and he was pre-diabetic.

You’re probably familiar with the old saying about “fighting with one hand tied behind your back.” Well, for a long time, that’s how society has been fighting obesity–treating it like a simple matter of having the willpower to eat better and move more.

American history is filled with experiences and narratives from minorities who suffered prejudices as they fought to gain acceptance and, ultimately, freedom. And although we’ve come leaps and bounds in our inclusion of gender minorities—like the Supreme Court’s decision to recognize same-sex marriage in 2015—we have a way to go.

In the 1990s, the idea of a transgender person was not a reality, and if it was portrayed in the mainstream it was made out to be odd or resembling some sort of circus act. Americans have come a long way as issues like being fired from a job or facing direct violence because you’re transgender have decreased immensely, but not totally.
