Agh sorry I had replied to you, but it didn't go through for some reason, it's still here in autosave.
Did you count the protein and fat in the fruit?? If you did, don't, they are free for protein and fat.
Don't worry about a little chorizo, that won't amount to anything.
Don't worry about the protein and fat for right now, we can get this figured out over time and maybe reduce them by a little once we get the weight under control.
That level of carb intake is fine for anyone who does not have severe PCOS. :agree:
Do you like potatoes?? I would switch out one salad with a potato.
Many Thanks Atomic, in my first meal yes as I entered everything on Fitness pal but I made sure I omitted the fruits since changing diet this week
Will make sure I don’t calculate the fruit protein and fat from now on x
I do like potatoes so I will add one instead of a salad ��
Hi Atomic,
I am now eating more in accordance with the LE PCOS diet with protein and fat ranging between 60-70 grams
I have lost a kilo though in a short amount of time so I started adding a fourth meal where I eat a couple fruits and a tea with a teaspoon honey sometimes. Is that OK? As I do not eat choco or a dessert with every meal now, but only have one sweet after one meal, I thought this is OK to help slow down weight loss. Is that OK or any other recommendations?
Thank you for any inputxx
At some point since you are losing too much weight too quickly, yes, it's fine to add in carbs.
Please view my original replies to your question in the light of, you were asking me "is this compatible with the LE PCOS Diet" and what you were doing was NOT compatible because it was too much sugar. Some people with PCOS could also not eat the fruit and honey, either. But at the point in time when weight is flying off, you likely NEED to boost calories particularly of carbs to keep weight on. So at that point, I may advise you to do something that is not strictly in line with the LE PCOS Diet not because "yes this is ok for everyone with PCOS tendencies to do" because it isn't, but more because YOU personally need to stop losing weight. I hope this makes sense.
Thank you Atomic, yes it does �� Will stick to what I am doing and avoid the fourth meal if I am feeling good in myself and not in too much weight loss mode. As my TTC date is approaching, I may not need to add the fourth meal too often or even to add more carbs. Fingers crossed in the end I will get my dream and a 3rd pink bundle ����
