    That has to be incredibly frustrating. If you are willing to share more and open to suggestions, I know there are many who would be happy to share their experience and suggestions. If you're just looking for emotional support, that's also something good to establish. Doesn't always stop the unsolicited advice, but may help some to bite their tongues.

    Something that could be helpful (if you want advice) is to make your food diary public so others can take a look at what you're eating and what you are logging for exercise and make suggestions for changes. That can sometimes feel a bit vulnerable, so another option is to friend request people you feel give good/balanced advice and make your food diary visible to friends.

    Another thing that could be helpful is to share what medical care you are getting for the PCOS and search the community posts for PCOS. I have a daughter the I suspect has PCOS and I've read some of the posts to try to get some insight, so I know there are some there.

    The most encouraging thing I have read is that even a 5% reduction in body weight can have a positive impact on PCOS symptoms. I know that may not sound encouraging when you've tried everything and can't seem to lose the weight, but I am optimistic that the group on here can come up with one or two things you haven't thought to try and they could make all the difference.

    Hugs and best wishes.

    This is a thread about PCOS from the "Most Helpful Posts" section:

    http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1448249/diagnosed-living-with-pcos-read-me/p1

    I don't personally have PCOS, so I haven't personally tested the recommendations there. There are comments on the thread from other women who do have PCOS.

    Hi hun :)
    I have a friend who has PCOS and has been told to “shift” the weight so she can go on to have ivf…and she says she just can’t do it…
    I don’t know a lot about how pcos affects weight but try the calorie counting and log everything you eat :)

    Remember the weight won’t go overnight and don’t give up :) xx
