Hello,
Weight gain in PCOS is very common and it is mainly due to the imbalance in the hormones as well as the lifestyle. Weight loss improves insulin resistance as PCOS make it difficult for the body to utilize insulin effectively.
With PCOS weight loss is a slow & gradual process and a lot of patience & consistency is required. It is definitely possible to lose weight with the right eating practice and regular physical activity.
A personalized diet is highly recommended in your case as it takes into account your lifestyle, medications, routine, medical condition, eating habits etc.
Apple cider vinegar alone won't help you to lose weight though it has its own health benefits. But a combination of exercise, balanced nutrition, and lifestyle changes will be helpful.
As a start, you can make the following changes
1. The diet should be low on carbs with adequate protein & fibre intake as it helps in managing the insulin levels
2. Incorporate unprocessed/whole foods like fresh fruits & vegetables, nuts, seeds, whole grains
3. Have complex carbohydrates like wheat, jawar, bajra, brown rice & avoid refined flour & its products
4. Limit the intake of
sugar, and avoid sweets, fried foods, junk food etc
5. Do not skip meals as skipping meals leads to unhealthy snacking & craving
6. Have balanced & nutritious meals throughout the day
7. Drink 8-10 glasses of water throughout the day at regular intervals to keep yourself well hydrated
8. Exercise for 45 minutes 6 days a week
