PCOS and Weight Management

Hi, I’m 24 and recently diagnosed with PCOS. My doctor advised me to lose weight, but it feels really hard. What can I do at home to help with weight loss?

It’s normal to feel overwhelmed, but with small, consistent changes, you can make progress.
Here are some simple tips:
- Eat balanced meals: Focus on lean proteins, whole grains, fruits, veggies, and healthy fats. Avoid sugary and processed foods.
- Control portions: Eat slowly, listen to your hunger cues, and use smaller plates to avoid overeating.
- Stay active: Try walking, yoga, or home workouts regularly. Add light strength training to boost metabolism.
- Manage stress & sleep: Practice relaxation techniques and get enough rest both affect hormones and weight.
- Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day.
If you encounter challenges, don’t hesitate to reach out to healthcare professionals or support groups for guidance and encouragement. You’ve got this!
