Is Berberine good for weight loss?
I have been researching supplements or drugs that could help manage my PCOS, and I've heard positive things about Berberine, does anybody have any experience with it? I am 26, was diagnosed with PCOS in 2020 but I've had it way before that, and contrary to most cases, I was actually pretty healthy and really fit. I blame it to the constant stress and my prolonged exposure to abuse lol, but the outcome is still the same. Fast forward, I gained weight but it's so hard to try and shed just a pound. I am married, and my husband and I gained a lot of weight in the past year, and we are doing calorie deficit with light workouts and we are walking after having dinner. It's been a month and my husband has already lost about 7 pounds, and I am still stuck in the same weight, eating less than him and walking more than him... It's frustrating, and I understand we all have our own journey but it's impossible not to compare myself to him. I am happy for him, but what about me? 😭
At this point I am willing to try anything, because I see no progress and I'm so hungry all the time, so it really makes me think that it's all for nothing...
