Welcome!
I'm happy that you were able to get your diagnosis pretty quickly from the time you started to gain weight to now! You can definitely work on just losing a little bit of weight, rather than a whole lost (and probably years of frustration to that!!).
I think you're in the right place, too, so stick around, read and learn more on PCOS.
Were you also tested for Insulin Resistance? And if you were, what were the results?
IR diagnosis will lead you to eating differently than someone who doesn't.
Were you prescribed any medication?
Exercise and eating healthy are really the only way to address the weight issue. You just have to figure out what "eating healthy" means for your body. Some people go vegan, others are low carb, others take on Weight Watchers, and stuff like that. You have to figure out what works for your body chemistry, since PCOS can manifest in so many different ways making one eating plan better than another.
I'm currently doing low carb, whole foods, almost vegetarian the majority of days of the week.
