PCOS and losing weight... Anyone else on the same boat? Any tips?

Question

I have PCOS and I’m having trouble losing weight. I need to loss 42lbs but I’m aiming for 50lbs to start IVF... 
I would appreciate any helpful tips. 
I can’t do Keto though...
TIA!!!

Answer

I dont recommend any fad diets so I'm glad you're steering clear of Keto. I also have PCOS and this has worked with maintaining a healthy weight while weight training as well:
Dont drink your calories. Drink lots of water and try to get to where you drink your coffee black. Start with SF creamer and no sugar and work to black coffee. Snack healthily- nuts, fruits, veggies, etc. Eat lean meats and lots of veggies. Have a healthy breakfast every morning! Eggs, yogurt, etc. Meal prep to avoid cheating. It seems like a lot initially but it really isn't so bad! You'll feel so much better in about 3 weeks, if not sooner.
Cut out gluten and dairy where you can. I'm not gluten intolerant but I eat gluten free for the most part and it's made a huge difference. Cutting back on dairy also has its benefits. Stay away from sugar the best you can. 
Lastly, incorporate a workout. Start with walking, or working out at home to videos or whatever you deem interesting and keep it up. Eventually, incorporate weights. Hold yourself accountable. I personally prefer the gym but that can be difficult depending on gym access and other variables. Keep in mind that it does not happen over night and it can take awhile to see a difference so don't get discouraged. Good luck!
