    @mgobluetx12 what is that you are doing? I have tried everything and just recently go diagnosed with lupus 4weeks ago. I have had pcos for about 3 years. I can't loose weight for nothing. I recently see the scale keep creeping back up. I can't do keto it makes me so sick anything that will help me I would appreciate it!! Thanks!!

    @starjewel16 I have researched the link between pcos, endometriosis, and lupus and there is a significant link between them. I recently had a hysterectomy due to pcos, cysts, fibroids and I was hemorrhaging every month for about 12 days. I didn't start showing signs of lupus until 3months after surgery. I did some research and found that women with lupus in a study I think it was like 40% of them had pcos and endometriosis! I was shocked. plus pcos runs in both sides of my family! Insulin resistance also. its crazy...

    I’m now on a plant based meal lifestyle and it’s subsided most of my PCOS symptoms. I’ve lost a little over 30lbs since making these changes. However,every body is different. Maybe try experimenting with different foods and your macros to see how you’re body responds. Good luck!
