Im 23 years old. I have PCOS since 5 years now. As im a student I find it difficult to take time for myself. Im 156 cm and 79 kgs. Please help me to lose my weight and help me form a sample chart of food items to include in my diet. I did take medications for PCOS but my menstrual cycle is still irregular and I keep rebounding my weight after losing it and when I try to lose weight, ill lose first 1-3 kgs but after that my weight will not further reduce and become static. What can be done?

Don't look at weight as the problem. The real problem is the food and the lifestyle which leads to that excess weight. You need to lose those food habits and that lifestyle. You need to aim and aspire to be more fit, more energetic and more active. Your BMI is 32.4 that falls in the Obese category. You are carrying about 25 kgs excess weight, and this weight is / will contribute to PCOD and other future problems if you don't take care of it now. Find a solution and pursue it.
