This October I was honored to be presented with the Outstanding Nutrition Entrepreneur Award from the Academy of Nutrition of Dietetics. There are over 80,000 registered dietitian nutritionists (RDNs) in the United States and I am very proud to accept this award for my work with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
I was officially diagnosed with PCOS in 1997. My body journey from then to now has not been an easy one. I’ve been through most of the same challenges that many of my fellow PCOS Cysters have experienced: weight fluctuations, hirsutism, mood swings, skin discoloration, and more. I know how it is to feel like you are at war with your body, always trying to manage consistent body challenges. However, I want to tell you that Body Peace is possible. It is quite possible to build a loving relationship with your body at any given moment, even while you may still be learning to manage the symptoms and challenges of PCOS. I know it is possible, because I’ve done it and I’ve supported several other women in finding Body Peace in their lives as well.
Do you feel like you have the most sensitive bladder on the planet? Maybe you have frequent urges to urinate (even during the night) or experience pain when you do? You may have a condition known as Interstitial Cystitis.
I am flattered and honored to receive the Ricardo Azziz PCOS Challenge Advocacy Leadership Award! PCOS Challenge created this award to recognize an individual who has demonstrated extraordinary dedication to advocacy and public policy efforts that expand access to resources and support for women and girls with polycystic ovary syndrome.
