    If you aren't particularly muscular then your body fat should be adequate and I think you'll do great on the PCOS diet. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

    My Ovulation Chart
    currently TTC, Cycle #16 since last BFP

    TTC #1 - swaying pink on & off since Nov 2013 - hoping for a girl first but excited for either!

    Dec 2001 - May 2006 : 5 early abortions of healthy singletons (3 medical @5w, 2 surgical @8w, last 4 pregnancies conceived with late DH, all conceived while TTA/on birth control)
    Mar 2012: miscarried B/G twins @5w (conceived 2 cycles after remověng Paraguard copper IUD while NTNP), one twin was ovarian ectopic

    Me: 34, widowed, late O + short LP, normal-good hormone levels excepting undetectable testosterone, seeking a known sperm donor/life partner
    My sway: vegetarian LE for over 28w, skipping breakfast, fibre (ground psyllium husks) with/before/between meals, physically inactive, drama avoidance, ocassional minimal YesBaby lube as needed, alternate cycles on low dose Clomid, double shot lattes (with meals)
    Past sway tactics I've dropped (in order): Vitex, Sudafed, antihistamines, intermittent fasting, one attempt per cycle at positive OPK, one attempt in fertile period

    Yes you need to switch to the alternate diet if you have weight left to lose and it's not going away. You may be slightly insulin resistant which means that you may not get as many benefits for your sway from the standard form of LE. It's not just the weight loss, it actually may be worse for your sway.

    totally that whenever you have a history of slow weight loss you can benefit from the alt. diets. It's believed that 70-100% of all ladies would eventually develop PCOS if lifestyle supported it strongly enough so it's a good option for anyone in this boat.
