Hi all, recently diagnosed with pcos and always struggled to lose weight. Now realise the two are linked.

Has anyone lost the weight and kept it off. If so, tips please!

TIA x

It's all linked to insulin resistance. Have a look at the Keto diet, there are groups on FB for Keto and PCOS, helping with weight loss, symptoms and fertility.

My dd has been recently diagnosed with this, and facing the same issue. She, on the suggestion of her go, made a food diary for her to look through and see what she could tweak. Basically she has to cut out added sugars and cut down on her carbs. The rest of her diet is pretty good.
Hope that helps & good luck!
