in Trying to Get Pregnant

Are any of you on a certain diet or were told my your OB's to cut out certain foods to help with this?

    Doesn't GP say that you have to google everything first?

    Hi!  I kind of addressed this in your other post about your plan. 

    But, the #1 thing is carbs.  With that, I have cut back and almost eliminated pop.  I've lost 12 pounds since December.

    There are many PCOS'ers on the Trouble TTC board as well.

    I am well aware that many people say to google, which I have done. In my opinion, it is better to hear success stories from women I am familiar with rather than stories or advice I randomly find on google. That is my preference.

    The good thing is that I have been working out for a while and eating better (with some lapses). The most difficult part for me is cutting out sweets. I absolutely love sweets, but I think being diagnosed with PCOS will help me with that. It's must to keep myself at a good weight and for a better chance of becoming pregnant. Thanks for your input!

    I was just diagnosed yesterday.  He stressed the carbs/sweets HAVE to go.  Basically the sweets cause insulin to work too hard which then makes other hormones go wacky.  And wacky hormones aren't good for TTC. 

     I don't remember the book specifically but there is a sugar addict book that I've heard is good.  I used to work at a doctors office and one of the MD's there told me if I gave up salt for 90 days my tastebuds would change.  She also said you can do that with sugar but it's harder because people crave sweets, it's in a lot, and it takes longer for the buds to change.

    Sweets were super hard for me and I still sometimes just crave it and give in just a little..but I have learned to nurish my sugar craving with yogurt, fruits, or sugar free things.
