PCOS and formulating a diet plan

[Lik3]

I have PCOS and I am having trouble losing weight because I have an issue with gluttony due to self control issues. Everyday is a struggle, yet I don't usually feel guilty about overeating. I do work on ways to improve my diet and I don't lead the most sedentary lifestyle. I am just concerned because I am also diabetic. I have no clue how much I wish to lose and how overweight I am. What plan should I be on or rather how should I formulate my plan?

Have you talked with your doctor? Probably that is the first step you might want to take. My doc sent me to a nutritionist at one point to figure out how to address my eating and health. I'd start there, because we can tell you all kinds of things, but you need something taylored to you.

Thank you. I weighed 310 and since I want to weigh 200 lbs. The truth is, I haven't weighed 200 lbs in years. I realize that I have gotten so fat that 200 lbs is small for me. I'm not complaining and I never complained about being fat, but that doesn't mean that being overweight doesn't have its drawbacks. I don't feel judged because of my weight, but my health has gone down overall partly because of it and also the PCOS. So far I have lost weight, but I am on what they call a plateau. I hope to see my nutritionist soon.

Have you tried a gluten free diet? I've read from different sources that it helps people who suffer from pcos. It could also help you to lose weight.
