How to Use a Fod Diary

With PCOS, weight loss is a key element to managing the symptoms. When trying to lose weight, it's important to recognize what your typical diet consists of. A food diary is an excellent tool to help you do that. A food diary is a place where you can record everything that you eat for a few days to a couple of weeks. You can also use the food diary to record the number of calories, fat and anything else you would like to look at, like fiber or sugar.
