Nuts are one of the healthiest foods. They're rich in nutrients, can decrease inflammation and insulin resistance and may aid in weight control. But it's easy to go overboard with portions of nuts! #pcos #insulinresistance

84% of Americans don't meet the veggie recommendation of 4.5 cups veggies/day. Vegetables have MANY health benefits in the body. Read my blog post ... I think it will make you eat more veggies 😀 buff.ly/2YOlbMW #PCOS #insulinresistance #type2diabetes

Chronic stress causes many health problems in the body. It's been implicated in the pathogenesis of PCOS. Studies show it causes weight gain and increased visceral fat. So important to find ways to decrease stress! #pcos #stress

If you are lean and have PCOS, I bet you've been told at least once .... "you can't have PCOS, you are too thin". Wrong! 20-30% of women with PCOS are of average weight or lean. Women with lean PCOS often go underdiagnosed. 5% of all lean women have #PCOS #pcosawarenessmonth

If you have PCOS, weight loss decreases insulin levels, inflammation, and androgens, risk of heart disease and diabetes & improves fertility. But if you are lean, what you do you? Read my blog pos to find out! buff.ly/2mCbpuX

Many of us get off track with our healthy habit over the summer. Just like kids go back to school, it's a good time for adults to go "back to school" with healthy habits. Pick 1-2 habits to work on at a time so you don't get overwhelmed! #PCOS #weightloss

Staying hydrated is important for good health. But plain water can get boring. And many drinks are loaded with sugar or contain artificial sweeteners - not ideal for PCOS. Check out my long blog post on the Best Drinks for PCOS #PCOS

If your goal is to lose weight, just focusing not the scale can backfire! This can be especially frustrating if you have PCOS. There are other ways to measure progress besides the scale. #PCOS

Lean Cysters get a bum rap. Takes longer to get diagnosed, and often get very little info on what to do next. Check out my blog post on 24 Tips for Lean Women with PCOS buff.ly/2mCbpuX
