Katy,
I went on the atkins diet for 4 weeks, lost 10 pounds, and once I went off it , I gained 15!!! Anyway, because I gained 20 pounds in a short period time (while dieting and starving myself), My doctor made me see a nutritionist and the nutrtionist put me on a diabetic diet w/ the 'food exchanges' and I've been losing about 1.5 pounds a week. Who'da figured that sensible dieting actually works
?
I had always hated sensible dieting in the past, because I loved the results from the quick weight loss, starve yourself fad diets. Now w/ PCOS i know those diets don't work and work against your metabolism.
God Bless!
