>I am interested to know about the 40-30-30 diet and to learn about Metformin/Glucosphage. I am 33 years old and have PCOS. I have been trying to get pregnant for 7 yrs now. I was on 'ovulation induction' treatment for 6 months but although it made me ovulate, I didn't conceive. As I need to loose around 90lbs, and have only come across this site, I am jumping in at the deep end and asking for help. I am doing my best to cut down on my sugar/fat intake but I don't know if I'm doing the right thing. I would appreciate any advice.
