Default IR question

Thought of something today that for some reason had escaped me - hope this is the right place to post this. . .

When I was diagnosed with IR, I was told how to change my diet and we'd see if that, combined with exercise, was going to be adequate to reduce my insulin levels. So I've been trying to be good and I feel a lot better lately, but I wonder if it's possible to actually "cure" IR by diet, exercise and weight loss. I have a strong opposition to taking pills, so I don't want to go on met unless I have to. I'd just like to know if I can get to a point where this isn't the ruling influence in my life. Somehow I don't think I'm asking this right, but maybe someone will understand me and be able to give me an answer?

My lifestyle changes were so 'radical' that I had reduced my symptoms and 'labs' to the point that some doctors said I didn't even have PCOS.

(Well, when I packed on 50 pounds, and the symptoms came back, that proved them wrong.)

My weight is back down to normal, and so are my symptoms and my labs.
