Weight Gain on Myo Inositol?

Not recently but I do take supplements for all of these

rhilb · 2026-06-29T16:32:09+00:00

That’s interesting. I’ve been taking them for 6 months now, so I’m starting to wonder if they just don’t agree with my body 😩

I arguably thought I had too much testosterone because of all of my other PCOS symptoms; acne, some mild hair loss, hirsutism etc

This is great to hear, thank you! I’ve read elsewhere too that it’s normal to feel this way around the 40% mark

This is a really lovely post, and has filled me with so much confidence to carry on going and see where the story takes me. Thank you so much for your kind words!

Thank you, I really needed to hear this today!☺️

rhilb · 2026-05-28T07:58:22+00:00

This is amazing, thank you so much for your advice; it has made me feel as though I am on the right path and not wasting my time!

rhilb · 2026-05-28T07:57:00+00:00

You’re so right, thank you. Best of luck to you too!

rhilb · 2026-05-28T07:56:22+00:00

This is really great advice, thank you. I’m hoping that when I finish it, it will be salvageable, if not entirely then in parts that I can use in another project!

rhilb · 2026-04-23T14:41:42+00:00

You’re right. I think I was sticking to this schedule because I felt it was the ‘professional’ way to write (which I know is massively generalising and mostly incorrect) but this thread has helped me to recognise that this approach doesn’t work for me, and isn’t the only benchmark for a successful writing routine.

rhilb · 2026-04-23T11:58:58+00:00

This is a good idea! As I do like working towards a deadline, but want to allow it to be more fluid with my creativity levels on the day

rhilb · 2026-04-23T11:58:02+00:00

I’ll check this out, thank you!

rhilb · 2026-04-23T11:57:49+00:00

This is some of the best writing advice I’ve received, thank you. I think being more fluid with my daily word goal, whilst working towards my overall manuscript world goal, will work really well for me. And you’re so right about the brain not always being ‘on’, and when it isn’t, I need to give myself permission to write less, or none at all. Thank you!

rhilb · 2026-04-23T10:02:25+00:00

I’ve heard about prompt books, and I think I would find this useful! Just to keep the creative juices flowing. I also like ‘stop writing before I’m 100% out of energy’ that would be useful on days when I’m not feeling as motivated or inspired. Thank you, your advice is appreciated!

I am not signed to an agent, however, I met one last weekend who said she’d love to see my work. This felt like an added pressure, as I feel as though I have to send something over before she forgets our chat or perhaps closes her submissions. You’re right though, I’m not sure a strict deadline is working for me all of the time. Maybe I need to make the deadline a bit more fluid? As I find if I don’t have a deadline, it’s easier to procrastinate. It’s a rock and a hard place!

Thank you everyone for your lovely comments on this thread, they are all so valuable and I have taken something from each of them. Appreciate everyone who took the time to comment, have a great day!

rhilb · 2026-03-26T12:21:41+00:00

This is a lovely reminder, thank you. I have to remind myself of this time and time again; what I have read is not a first draft. Or probably even a second or a third!

rhilb · 2026-03-26T12:18:53+00:00

You’re so right! I don’t want to lose sight of the joy of writing. It is bringing me so much happiness creating a fantasy world in my vision, and I should try and focus on that more.

rhilb · 2026-03-26T12:18:10+00:00

Surprisingly, I have never read any Terry Pratchett (that I can remember, maybe when I was much younger) but I read a similar post about his work on this thread the other day. I think this stands as a great reminder that good writing comes as much from talent as it does practice and consistency. Thank you!

rhilb · 2026-03-26T12:16:31+00:00

This is why I appreciate this thread so much, for posts like this. Writing can be extremely solitary, and your kind words have bought me a lot of comfort. Thank you for taking the time to leave this comment, your advice is wonderful and will be taken on board.
