it was ok:

You get what one would expect considering the size of the book.
It's good at giving detailed information about the effects of glucose on your health. The shortcoming is the section on the GI Diet. If I had not read other books and information, I would have been confused.

Tiny & thin book:

Decent info but not at all what I was expecting. There are many better PCOS books out there and the G.I. diet info was limited.

Great Diet Information:

This book is excellent for diet management of PCOS, the seven steps are so useful and have helped me lose over 19 pounds in 3 months. The sample grocery list is very helpful as are the recipes. Very much recommend!

Didn't work for me.:

I've had PCOS for 23 years and have fought weight gain for most of them. The only time my body responded positively to any diet was on the Carbohydrate Addict's diet for Life. The only thing is, it's really hard to stay on it. I was at a healthy weight when I quit smoking, and figured I would try the Low G.I. for PCOS book for a new way of eating. I gained 20 lbs. in 6 months. I couldn't control the carb intake. Low G.I. or not, this diet made me crave more carbs, which in turn makes my hormones go crazy... more info
