PCOS and Eating Correctly

I have been diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome and know that it is fairly common in women, especially - but not limited to - overweight women. I am looking for support and ideas on how to eat with PCOS. What has worked for you? What flares up your symptoms and what doesn't? I look forward to hearing from all of you. Thanks again!

    I was diagnosed as PCOS as well awhile back, and found that lowering my carb intake and watching my sodium intake helped a lot.

    (As it turns out, I was misdiagnosed, and had Cushing's Disease, but that's a whole other debacle.)

    Good luck!
