    I am also IR, I do a primal/ keto way of eating. It works great I think they only problem is people think of this lifestyle as a diet instead and when they go back to eating all the carbs they gain the weight back. The either eat the wrong carbs , too many, or did not transition off well if they chose not to this for a lifestyle. So my advice would be just make sure to plan what you want to do before you do it.

    that is a great question. Have you talked to your doctor about it? if you have PCOS, there is a very good chance you have IR. What kind of doctor diagnosed you, and who is treating you?

    I'm T2. I eat low carb and eat to my meter. If it makes my BG high, I don't eat it. Exercise really helps with insulin resistance. I try to do something after meals.
  • Im severely insulin resistant. I didnt stop eating carbs or things i liked i just controled my portions and worked out daily and i lost 70lbs in less then a year but one thing i did almost completely stop eating was sugar. but i eat alot of carbs. And was on medication to treat my insulin resistance
