[QUOTE="B17_Fan, post: 1858634, member: 427306"] I have pcos and RH. I'm overweight and find losing weight impossible. I take metformin to help. I've read so many conflicting things about what to eat. Some people say to eat complex carbs, others say low carbs. Some say GI and then there's GL. Is it OK to eat things like granary bread or wholemeal crackers? I don't know what to have for breakfast, as eggs, which would be perfect, give me terrible stomach ache. Also porridge doesn't agree with me. I currently have 2 weetabix with some bran flakes sprinkled on top. Lunch is usually a brown bread sandwich with cheese, followed by 2 go ahead crispy slices. Dinner is pretty carb heavy...oven chips or boiled potatoes, chicken steak in breadcrumbs and plenty of veg. I have a yogurt mid evening, then as I am hungry by about 10pm, I'll have a sandwich or a crumpet with a packet of crisps. I basically live on carbs to keep me going. My blood sugar was 5.4 when I went to bed last night, and I felt weird, so I had more to eat, even though I'd eaten a lot for supper. If someone could give me some advice on the best route forward, I'd gladly listen. [/QUOTE]
