Can people with pcos lose weight?
My weight has been a big struggle ever since I was diagnosed with PCOS. No matter what I try, it feels impossible to lose. Can people with PCOS actually lose weight effectively, or is it a lifelong battle?

Losing weight with PCOS can be extremely difficult and trying dangerous crash diets can complicate your health further. I messed up my metabolism trying to starve myself. Please consult an endocrinologist first to check your insulin levels.
Dekho, weight loss with PCOS is slow but totally possible. Stop looking for shortcut weight loss tea or powders. Stick to a basic calorie deficit, lift some weights, and be consistent for at least six months.
I have both thyroid and PCOS, so my weight loss is painfully slow. What worked for me is getting regular thyroid profile tests and following up closely with my doctor to keep my hormone medication optimized. Don't lose hope!
I literally stress over every single gram on the weighing scale, which probably raises my cortisol and stops weight loss! But honestly, even if you lose just 2-3 kgs, your PCOS symptoms will start improving. We can do this, just take it day by day.
Actually, tracking my daily steps and calorie intake on an app was a game-changer for my PCOS weight loss. Focus on neat activity like walking 10k steps daily and keeping a high protein intake to manage insulin resistance.
