Today we're covering a highly requested topic: weight loss in PCOS!  Specifically, I'm going to cover why it actually is harder to lose weight and what can be done. 

Today's discussion focuses on the interrelationship between PCOS, insulin resistance, and weight loss. You'll learn how insulin, a hormone that cues your body to store fat, can become a barrier to your weight loss journey. We're also shedding light on leptin resistance and its role in intuitive eating, which many with PCOS find challenging. 

In the latter part of our conversation, we delve into the roles of stress hormones, chronic inflammation, and insulin resistance in PCOS. Grasp how to strike a balance between activity and rest, understand the role of food sensitivities in inflammation, and realize the importance of breaking the leptin resistance cycle. 

You'll also learn why measurements and progress photos can be more effective for tracking body composition changes.
