Dear Angelique,
We met a few years ago and I have never forgotten you, your warmth your honesty, your resilience. You connect to and touch people in a very special way, as you did with me. Even in your pain and dark moments you are able to shine a beacon of light to so many. You share your grief and saddness and in doing so, we realise and re-connect to our own pain, our losses and vulnerability. In this fast pace of life we sometimes lose connection with our deepest needs and that which makes us human.
Thank you for your love, your humanity and for reaching out to share a very special part of yourself with us.

I wish you happiness,inner peace and so much more…

Such a touching story, brought a tear to my eye. I can relate to so many things you have mentioned in your story. Its only the last couple of years that i have managed to turn my life around and have a healthier body. I’ve lost 2st…a big achievement for me. I take one day at a time, trying to be a good role model for my family. Now im learning to drink so much more water and eating food that doesnt contain loads of sugar.

Dear Mary,

Thank you for your message. I am so sorry for your loss, I can only imagine how hard that must have been and still is for you and your family & friends. I am pleased that you have found the strength to to be able to talk about it now, it could not have been easy.

Eating a balanced diet rich in vegetables and good sources of lean protein and healthy fats would be beneficial. Avoid hydrogenated oils because they contain trans fats, and avoid added processed sugar & refined carbohydrates.

I have an underactive thyroid as well, I am about to post a blog on it so please check back later or sign up to my newsletter to find out when its live https://angeliquepanagos.com/newsletter

If you would like to see me for a consultation to work out a personalised programme please email.

Do let me know how you are getting on please and once again I am so sorry for your loss and I admire your strength.

Joy & Light

Your story is powerful and illustrates the resilience of the human spirit.my daughter aged 4 years drowned on 17th feb1972 accidentally. My mum was looking after my children while I was working when the accident happened.it was an extremely sad time for our families and friends.i am only now able to talk about the whole tragedy as I bottled it up for many years.i would like to ask you if there are foods which would be healthy for myself as I have been diagnosed with periferal vascular disease.i have arthritis and hypothyroidism.many thanks.

Dear Stella,

Thank you for your message and kind words. My heart goes out to you, reading your story I can understand how hard and frustrating it all must have been for you. I am so sorry you had to experience this, that last round of IVF must have been really traumatic. I am so pleased that you pulled through! You are so brave.
How are you managing the PCOS? I know from personal experience and from all the literature that sugar and insulin spikes are a major driver and contributor to stubborn weight with PCOS plus having an underactive thyroid does not help either.

Have a look at these blogs which may help you with the sugar addiction and weight. Additionally if you’d like please join my newsletter which has additional tips, blogs and recipes.

Hi Angelique – you are 20 years younger than me and am so glad that you are in a position to know how to deal with your problems. Unfortunately for me my husband could not father children – so we resorted to IVF which we did 4 times as well as other forms of donor insemmination. I had however, PCOS, a history of obesity in my genes. I developed an under active thyroid at 34.. My final IVF treatment I had when I was 36 and I ended up in intensive care fighting for my life as they had overstimulated my ovaries. I still fight with my weight and my sugar addiction.
