    PCOS Dietician

    I am looking for a specialist PCOS dietician or some really good books to assist me with my PCOS symptoms. I have the PCOS Diet Book and have read it, but think I need something more.

    I have just stopped taking anti depression meds as want to go more natural, but don't really know where to start.

    Feeling really fat (look 5 months pregnantsome days), down (can't stop crying), ugly (as you would when you can't lose weight), and feel like I am hitting my head against a brick wall.

    I am in the Western Sydney area
    Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

    Help....

    Leanne, I see David Knight at Next Generation Fertility. While he is primarily a fertility specialist, he is very good at treating PCOS. He put me on a low-GI, low-carb, high-protein diet for a while. For four weeks I had to record everything I ate into a website... At our next appointment he checked what I'd done over every day of those four weeks, gave me a stern lecture about not exercising enough, but I'd lost nearly 5kg in those 4 weeks. If you're not keen on seeing him, I can at least send you some of the information he gave me to see if that will help you.

    Thank you that would be great. I have been trying to lose weight for what seems like my whole life, and it seems to be going the other way....

    Sure thing, Mon. PM me your email address.

    And Leanne, if you come back to this thread - the email kept giving me undeliverable messages, but they said I didn't need to resend it. I don't know what's going on, but if you don't have it, can you PM me with another email address for yourself? The one in your profile didn't work out so well.
