0:00.0	Say goodbye to the food police and hello to peace. Welcome to the Love Food podcast, hosted by
0:06.9	dietitian and food behavior expert Julie Duffy Dillon. This authentically engineered series is in
0:13.5	the form of a love letter welcoming you to reconnect with food. Now pour a cup of coffee or a
0:19.9	margarita and let's begin.
0:30.9	Hi and welcome to episode 151 of a love food podcast. I am Julie Duffy Dillon, registered dietitian, and partner on your

1:43.3	specialize in is helping people affected by
1:45.8	polycystic ovarian syndrome, also known as PCOS, and that PCOS is the number one cause of
1:52.7	ovulatory infertility. So a lot of people are trying to figure out a way to bring a baby home,

2:02.4	And what do you think doctors say to people when they're trying to conceive? Well, lose weight.
