Am I I.R. because I'm fat, or am I fat because I'm I.R?

I have lost a lot of weight doing weigh down diet(basically it's eat whatever you want, but just when you are hungry). But gained it right back. i've started atkins today on the advice of my ob/gyn. my question is this: because i have pcos, will i ALWAYS be predisposed to insulin resistance,or is the I.R. just because I'm fat? Dr. Atkins seems to think the I.R. is because I have always eaten too much sugar. I could live off of sugar. When my husband and I go out to eat I only eat dessert. So I'm a little worried about this diet, but I am scared enough to stick with it. I don't want diabetes or heart problems.
