Why does weight loss with PCOS often feel like a battle against your own body? Get ready to unlock the answers as we dissect the complicated relationship between weight and PCOS. With the latest insights, we strip away the myths and focus on the complex dance of metabolism, hormones, and genetics. Discover how abdominal fat is not just a matter of aesthetics, but a central player in the inflammation and insulin resistance story. We'll guide you through a balanced dietary approach, emphasizing the often-underrated roles of fiber and protein in blood sugar control, and how this ripples out to affect your metabolic health.

We'll discuss set point theory, which suggests your body has a comfortable weight it stubbornly clings to, and learn the strategies for real, sustainable change. We'll discuss the vital role of metabolic flexibility, offering practical advice on how strategic fasting periods and meal structuring can enhance insulin sensitivity, an important factor in managing PCOS. Plus, hear our thoughts on the exciting potential of GLP-1s to support your weight loss journey while navigating the nuances of cravings and appetite.
