    Ok I have been told I needed to go on a low carb diet such as South Beach diet for these problems I have. unsure It is hard to do a whole lot of exercises for Fibromyalgia when I hurt so bad.crying
    Is there anybody out there that has these problems and this zone diet has really worked for them? One thing I hated about SBD was I would get really dizzy on my second week of phase 1 and get horrible headaches. I never really lost any weight with this diet. I really need to lose about 80 lbs so I would feel 100% better with life.

    Hi Suzanne!

    I personally know people with PCOS who have been very successful with the Zone diet and Zone Labs fish oil. Allso, I've read that Dr. Sears has worked with a national PCOS group.

    As I understand fibromyalgia has an inflammatory component. I've read that people who have fibromyalgia have responded well to the Zone diet and fish oil.

    You can find more about both PCOS and Fibromyalgia in relation to the Zone with a search of DrSears.com

    I have PCOS and Insulin resistance. I haven't started the Zone yet, but I have been advised by my primary care dr that this would definitely be the way for me to go. How have you done on this program? Take care, God Bless, Julie D
    Take care,

    Hi Julie,

     I've had excellent results with the Zone.  I don't have PCOS, but did have other concerns when I began the Zone over 15 years ago.  I was obese, I had high blood pressure that was not responding well to high BP meds and I had elevated triglycerides.   I lost 100 pounds during my first two years in the Zone, and I’ve maintained my ideal weight since then.  I no longer have high BP and my triglycerides and cholesterol are low (with no BP meds and no cholesterol meds).  The Zone changed my life.  I suggest reading Toxic Fat.  It's the Zone book with the most up-to-date info.  Good luck!
