I was wondering if anyone of you knew of a cookbook I can purchase or foods I shold be eating more of since I have PCOS. I've read on some of the bulletins and on soulcysters that we should be eating a more low carb diet, any suggestions???

I have known I have PCOS for at least 10 years or more now.  I've always found a low carb diet worked best for me (prior to surgery that is).  However, I have been following a plan that my surgeon's nutritionist gave me for the last 5 or so days and I've lost 5lbs doing that diet.  It's a low fat diet.

If you are interested in the plan I'm following you can find it on my blog.

Best of luck to you!

The Insulin Resistance Diet book (can be found on amazon) is pretty good. Basically it recommends eating only complex carbs and when you do, pairing them with a protein. I got it a few years ago for like $8 I think on amazon. I was diagnosed with PCOS 6 years ago.

My OB/GYN put me on The Sugar Buster's Diet and it worked like a charm!  I started having regular periods and some initial weight loss from it.  The book explains the theory behind the diet (low carb) and also includes recipes!

Good Luck!
