PCOS Diet Recommendations?

Going to try to improve my diet and exercise as I wait for IVF #1.  Anyone have any success stories to share?  Any recommendations for books or websites?

From what I have read, whole foods, minimally processed foods, steer clear of wheat...lots of veggies, protein. 

Thanks!

Re: PCOS Diet Recommendations?

  • I went on a low carb/low glycemic index diet. It did not actually help my PCOS but it did help me to lose the last 10 lbs I was trying to get rid of.

  • I'm a week and a half into the EZ Diet which was created by an RE. You can google EZ Diet and ivf to find it. I'm four pounds down and I feel pretty good if only because eating this way lessens the metformin side effects.

    I haven't heard about this diet. Does he have a book?

    ETA: Oh, nevermind, I found it online. It's just the one sheet of paper, right?

    Yup. I think the briefness of it is the "EZ" part.
