PCOS Diet Guide: Weight Loss & Affordable Options


Question
I was diagnosed with PCOS when I was 21, I'm now 31, although I have searched endlessly I cannot find a diet that suits me or helps me loose weight.  I've tried every diet going and nothing has worked.  Could you advise me on a suitable diet please?  I am on a low income, therefore have not been able to purchase the expensive books written on this topic.  I'd appreciate any help you can offer me.

Answer
Many women with PCOS find that a low carb diet helps with weight loss and insulin resistance. One of the big ones is the Atkins Diet. I would recommend looking for one of the low carb diet books on ebay, half.com, or a local bookstore used. You can usually purchase these kinds of books used for a few dollars versus regular price at a bookstore.
