So, just last summer i was diagnosed with having PCOS, at the age of 29. Very disappointed it took this long for it to be diagnosed. But now I'm trying to
decide on a diet plan that will actually show me results(I'm at my highest weight and getting more and more depressed). All suggestions are welcome ! I have had success with the atkins diet, however it seems like just a temporary thing, as its almost impossible to stay on that diet long-term.

Re: Best Diet for PCOS ?
Hey! I'm 33 and have PCOS. I've struggled my entire life with staying in shape and it wasn't until after I had my second daughter (who is now 10 months old) that I was introduced to the 21 day fix program. I've completed 3 rounds and it's completely changed the way I eat (and look). It's awesome that all of the workouts are 30 minutes or less and are extremely effective, but the eating portion is what made a HUGE difference for me. I also replace breakfast with a smoothie each morning using Shakeology. I originally purchsed the two together as a challenge pack from my then coach, and I still drink it daily. However, the 21 day fix workout/eating program is sold by itself and is worth its weight in gold.
It's not a huge amount of weight, I know, but for someone struggling with PCOS, it was a nice confidence boost.
