Women have a lot of difficulty with, which is why i havent talked about it. There are women who have it so much more intense. Pcos, polycystic ovary syndrome, is a female hormone imbalance in which the ovaries may produce excessive amounts of testosterone along with possibly forming numerous small ovarian cysts. The condition can lead to weight gain, infertility, uterine cancer. The star saying changing her diet has helped her cope with the diagnosis. Growing up in new york she loved carbs, sandwiches, bagels. Since then shes worked with her doctor to come up with a diet to really help fight those pcos symptoms. Reporter according to the u. S. Department of health and human services, Healthy Eating habits can help alleviate pcosrelated symptoms. Food is fuel. Its also for enjoyment. Trust me, i love a good wine with pasta and pizza, its amazing. Reporter the star says she is now eating a lot cleaner. I think it just helps so many out there experiencing these types of symptoms or diagnosis and giving them hope that there are ways to manage it and feel like your best self. Lea says shes fortunate to be able to control her pcos with diet, because many women struggle with more extreme cases. A School Administrator in chattanooga came up with a pret unique solution to student tardiness. The mirrors were pained over. That administrator says students were spending too much time in the bathrooms of central high. A student posted a picture of the mirrors on facebook. She says being able to check your appearance is important to a students selfimage and confidence, and that paint that you see there on the mirrors has been removed. Interesting idea, but i dont think anyone would like that. I dont think so. And also we know that teens will do whatever they can to do whatever they want to do. Because if the teen took the picture with their phone they can just pull out their phone and check themselves as well. Right. You remember when we did that story a few weeks ago about a teen whose phone was taken away. Oh, and she tweeted. She tweeted or texted from the smart refrigerator. So kids are smart. Youre not stopping them. I think there are other things that maybe need to be done to say, hey, stop looking in the mirrors so much or checking your phone so much. Tell them theyre beautiful and perfect just as they are. And go steady. J. Lo opens up about her hotly anticipated movie. What shes saying about just how difficult it was to play a hustler. Tampons .

This morning on world news now, a sudden this morning on world news now, a sudden staff shakeup. President trump is now searching for his Fourth National security adviser after firing john bolton. Both of them with different accounts of the split. When a new adviser ipected to be announced. Also this morning the deadly bus crash with children on board. The driver behind the wheel believed to have had a heart attack sending a packed school bus into a ditch. How everyone is doing this morning. Remembering 9 11. Today marks 18 years since the attacks in new york, pennsylvania, and the pentagon. Were hearing from the family of one of the heroes whose work at ground zero cost him his life. The teenage girl whose memory resets every two hours. What she and her family are saying about their terrifying medical mystery. Its wednesday, september 11th. Good wednesday morning. Thank you for joining us. As we said, it is september 11th. A big day for remembrance here in the u. S. Its been 18 years since the terror attacks of 9 11, 2001. Its incredible, theres a whole generation that was not born yet when that happened back in 2001. So we will be commemorating that anniversary and that solemn anniversary today. We do begin with the latest shakeup at the white house. National security adviser john bolton forces out after repeatedly clashing with President Trump. Bolton was the president s third National Security adviser on the job for 17 months. He held hawkish Foreign Policy views that broke with the president on iran, north korea, and afghanistan. The president announced in a tweet that he fired bolton, but as abcs terry moran reports, bolton had a different account of how they parted ways. Reporter in a curt tweet, President Trump declared he was tting rid of his third National Security adviser. I informed john bolton last night that his services are no longer needed at the white house. I disagreed strongly with many of his suggestions, as did others in the administration, and therefore i asked john for his resignation which was given to me this morning. But bolton was not going to go quietly, firing off his own tweet minutes later, contradicting the president. I offered to resign last night, and President Trump said, lets talk about it tomorrow. And as the news broke, bolton reached out to fox news in realtime. John bolton just texted me. Oh. Just now, hes watching. Can you read it . Yeah. He said, lets be clear, i resigned. Reporter bolton also told abcs jon karl the president s story was flatly wrong, he never asked for me to resign, directly or indirectly. The sudden turn of events was a long time coming. Bolton is a famous hawk, an early supporter of the iraq war, and a strong advocate of regime change in iran. In both cases at odds with the president. John bolton is absolutely a hawk. If it was up to him, hes take on the whole world at one time. Reporter bolton was publicly skeptical of several of President Trumps big Foreign Policy moves like the ongoing talks with north korea. Do you take kim jongun at his word . The president takes him at his word. I know he does, what about you . My opinion doesnt matter. Reporter bolton was at work here in the white house. He even chaired a National Security meeting. And he was scheduled to be at a briefing on new counterterrorism measures, instead, secretary of state mike pompeo and secretary of treasury Steve Mnuchin addressed reporters. Both often battled bolton, especially on trumps effort to secure a peace deal in afghanistan. Did he leave the white house because he disagreed with you in particular over talks with the taliban . So last night the president asked for ambassador boltons resignation, as i understand it, it was received this morning. The president s entitled to the staff that he wants. At any moment. Reporter the president says he will name boltons replacement as National Security adviser next week. Republicans on capitol hill beginning to get nervous about the turnover. This will be President Trumps Fourth National security adviser. And one leading republican, ron johnson of wisconsin, chairman of the Senate Homeland security committee, said, i dont care whether its business or Foreign Policy, you do like to see stability. His advice, he said, instability is unhelpful. Terry moran, abc news, the white house. Our thanks to terry there. One of the challenges faced by the president s National Security team is eradicating isis. And were seeing the latest attack on the terror group. The u. S. Led coalition blasted whats being described as an isisinfested island in iraq, dropping 40 tons of explosives. Military Officials Say the air strikes targeted an area that had become a safe haven for terrorists. Isis fighters have been forming sleeper cells in the desert and caves after losing their strongholds in iraq and syria. President trumps Approval Rating has suffered a dramatic drop in our latest abc news poll with the washington post. Just 38 of americans approve of the president s Job Performance, down 6 since july. A majority of the people are worried about recession and many believe the president s policies will lead the country into an economic downturn. After a tight race, republicans have held on to a North Carolina congressional seat thats been solidly red for over 50 years. But dan bishops narrow victory in the special election could spell trouble for President Trump in 2020. Bishop, a starch conservative, defeated moderate democrat dan mccready by 2 points in the district trump won by 11 in 2016. The president campaigned for bishop on the eve of the election, and overnight he took credit for the win. The Trump Administration reportedly will not grant whats called temporary protective status to residents of the bahamas affected by hurricane dorian. That status applies to people who would face extreme hardship if they were forced to return to homelands that have been devastated by natural disasters or conflict. The death toll from dorian in the bahamas is at least 50 people. Also nba legend Michael Jordan says hes going to donate 1 million to dorian relief efforts. Jordan says the money will go to nonprofits which will have the most impact. Another person in the u. S. Has died after using ecigarettes. The woman in kansas died shortly after she began vaping. She was holder than 50 and had a history of health problems. The cdc and state Health Departments are investigating the illnesses related to vaping and havent yet found a clear connection. The cdc is working with the states to further refine what may be behind this, whats actually causing it. But the message i think for everyone to take home is that currently something has changed about vaping. Nationally, six deaths are linked to vaping and illnesses have been reported in at least 33 states. Half the 29 related cases in texas are teenagers. And again, this is something that seems like were talking about pretty much every day at this point. Right. Some sort of new reported illness. At this point a new reported death. Up to a half dozen at this point. Theyre still investigating what the cause is but its something out there. Again no clear link, but the investigation is still under way. A crash sent all the teens aboard a school bus in northwestern mississippi to the hospital. The bus taking them to school ran into a ditch about 60 miles from memphis and turned over. The 63yearold driver had suffered an apparent heart attack and died. All his passengers are expected to survive. Abcs Steve Osunsami has more. Reporter parents who had just put their kids on this school bus were frantic hearing from a crash got a overturned bus with children on it. Reporter the children were on their way to classes in benton county, mississippi, when Authorities Say the driver had a heart attack and students say he clutched his chest and slumped over, causing the bus to overturn in a ditch. The driver died. All eight children on the bus had to be hospitalized. None of them were ejected, but of course were bounced around in the bus and then had sustained injuries from that. Reporter the parents of an injured eighth grader say she has a broken ankle, leg, and jaw, but will survive. Just a little devastated, but at least the good lord was with everybody and had their hands on everybody and everythings going good so far. Reporter the driver who died had worked for the School System for five years, and the School District says he was a dependable employee. Steve osunsami, abc news, atlanta. Our thanks to steve. The Ride Hailing Service lyft is making several changes to improve rider and Driver Safety after allegations of Sexual Assault. All drivers will be required to take a course given by a National Sexual violence prevention organization. Also the lyft app will recognize unexplained delays in trips and ask if drivers and passengers need help with an option to get that help. Of course, as we mentioned today marks 18 years since the september 11th terrorist attacks. Those who lost their lives will be honored at new Yorks World Trade Center site along with the pentagon and in shanksville, pennsylvania. This is the first 9 11 anniversary since the death of former new york detective luis alvarez. While dying from cancer, he urged congress to extend funding for 9 11 First Responders and his brother talked about his fight to the end. For us, in a personal sense, theres a deep void. There was a lot of lou alvarezes. Anybody whos ever fought for this city, has fought the sicknesses, theyre all lou alvarezes, theyre all heroes. The Alvarez Family will be at the ground zero events and several others. Luis alvarez passed away back in june. The president will attend a memorial observance at the pentagon. Vice president pence will attend an event in shanksville, pennsylvania. As you mentioned, it really is, its crazy that its been 18 years and that there is an entire generation who at this point wasnt alive when that happened. And still is learning about that day. We often say never forget. It is more than a hash tag. People are making sure that generation that was not born then, a whole new generation, that they know about 9 11 and that we never forget men who lost their lives even years after those towers fell in new york city. So the tributes will continue. There will be a tribute and light tonight that weve seen so many times at ground zero. And thats part of the important work that luis alvarez was doing, to make sure that fund that congress did end up extending is still there for all those First Responders for as long as they need it.

Good morning, everyone. Thank you for joining us on this solemn anniversary of september 11th. We do want to talk about that later, but we begin with the growing health alarm over vaping and ecigarettes. At least six people have now died from lung disease related to vaping. The latest was a woman in kansas who had a history of health problems, but the problems worsened shortly after she began vaping. Most of those who have become ill from these products are in their teens, though. From abcs adrienne bankert.
