Hi there!!! I am new to the atkins diet. I was diagnosed, finally, with PCOS about a year ago. I am so mad that all my doctor did was prescribe meds!!! He never told me that I was insulin resistant and could benefit from a low carb diet. I have been researching about my medical condition for the last several months and found that Atkins is helpful in helping women with PCOS lose weight. I have struggled with my weight all my life. Two monts ago I was 221. I worked like mad and at nothing to get down to 213. I just started atkins 5 days ago and I am already down to 208!!! Five pounds in five days. That is amazing. I am really encouraged at this point.
