High carb diets tend to be very BAD for woman with PCOS. You might want to rethink your dieting to a LOW carb higher protiene diet plan.You might actually loose weight by doing so and not feel hungry all the time. Also ask your doctor if he knows anything about treating PCOS with insulin sensitizers such as Metformin.Insulin Resistance is the underlying cause for PCOS and thats is why insulin sensitizers work for most PCOS patients along with a low carb diet. You don't have to have high sugar to be insulin resistant.You can find more info at http://www.PCOSUPPORT.ORG Dona
