And I drink a lot of water every day. Doesnt’ that count for something? My sugar levels are good, why do I keep gaining weight? I have pcos but no idea how to stop gaining.

Are you on birth control?
Are you exercising? Could it be a thyroid issue? Hormonal imbalance?
Also if you are drinking a ton of water that can cause temporary weight gain

No to birth control
Walking and do weights when I can
Thyroid was tested and is doing fine
Drinking a lot but I always do, a gallon a day is pretty typical for me

Today I ate:
Breakfast: A yobar with coffee
Lunch: 2 mini (the really tiny) baguettes with cream cheese, alfalfa and a slice american cheese. Another coffee.
Supper: some chulent, one slice kishke, raw green beans.
Walked 1.7 miles in under 30 mins. What else should I be doing??

If you have pcos you likely have insulin resistance. And cortisol issues. Both of which contribute to weight gain.

I found that when I wasn’t eating enough calories I wasn’t losing weight.
I hate to suggest calorie counting, bc I know that can bc restrictive etc… but it helped me a lot. Knowing the range of calories I was supposed to be eating each day (including the calories burned while working out) made a difference.
I did noom and learned a lot from it.
Weight watchers is probably the same idea.
Good luck… I’m in the same boat as you and incredibly frustrating

I hate the idea but maybe.. I don’t want to pay a lot though, I did think about Noom in the past. Also each day looks different some days I eat a lot more than others, if I’m craving or just very hungry.
