Hey girl ! PCOS and insulin resistance right here! I'm no expert, but what I found works for me is following macros with them adjusted for my IR. so mine are at 40%protein 35% fat 25% carbs. Also I added weight training in and noticed that's helping a lot!

I have PCOS and insulin resistance. I do flexible dieting, with my macros adjusted to account for my IR. low carb high fat high protein. When I switched to this and added weight training I started seeing results. :)

Hey ladies!!! Fellow PCOS and hypo girl here! Add me :)

You can disagree with me all day long. I don't care. My point is, everyone has there opinion. The OP wanted opinions. I highly doubt he wants to see you picking apart everyone's responses. And instead of sitting on here doing that, offer up your suggestions. It's not the place to be debating. Leave your response to the…

He asked what was HEALTHIER. Leaving it open to interpretation. He didn't ask for a debate between diet and regular. Or what had fewer calories. He didn't specify a goal or reason behind wanting alternatives. People on these threads with their attacks and arguing is ridiculous.

You can do this!!!

Clarification. If you are SOLELY basing it on caloric benefits, yes. Diet is a better choice. HOWEVER, Research has shown artificial sweeteners affect blood glucose levels and with long term consumption, your body starts to treat it like actual glucose. Thus, losing the benefits of having no calories by increasing your…

The only difference is no calories. If you do your research and not laugh at an educated answer, you'd see the same.

Hey girl! I'm with you! I started my journey in February! I'd love motivation and encouragement and to share encouragement as well!

It took me a long time to find what worked for me, and I sill work at it. But number one, see your doctor and get tested and find what you're…

Hey dawn! I just turned 30, and have been struggling with my weight since having kids. I never developed good eating habits or regular exercise so it's a hard change to make! It's so much easier with accountability partners!

Hey girl!!! I'm struggling with PCOS and need accountability too!

You can have great results with the challenge, if you go into it understanding it's a lifestyle change, not a fad diet. If you stick with the plan, and commit, you'll do great. I only did it because my husband really wanted to try it and wanted someone to do it with him. I am a pusher, so I committed fully. No cheating.…

Food Scale, weights, and SPARK!!!

I struggle everyday go maintain it! You can do it!!!

I like Spark. Doesn't give me caffeine jitters like a lot of others did.
