I don't have PCOS, but, I can tell you lap band surgery is changing my life. I am so much healthier and happier. I wish this for you too:)

Congratulations on having the surgery! Remember, the first six weeks are for healing. It takes several fills to feel restriction. You really have to have patience with yourself. I look forward to hearing about your success in the future.

Find your joy....its out there.

I was diagnosed a few years ago with PCOS (but probably had it much longer). Was banded two months ago and have already lost 30 pounds since I started seeing the dr. in February! Have been trying unsuccessfully to have children for the past four years, hoping losing the weight will help with that. But along with the 30 pounds, my blood pressure has dropped and I am feeling so much better! My husband and I recently joined a wellness gym and I love the group fitness classes! And for the first time in I don't know how long, I am under 200 pounds! Yay!!

And congrats on having your surgery!

To The~New~Me.... congrats on your accomplishment. That is wonderful news to hear and it uplifting for me. I will be happy to be under 200 pounds also when I make it there.

To electronicart .... thanks for the encouragement. I am looking forward to finding my joy.

I have PCOS as well. I am pre-op still but I join you in the hope that these issues will subside as the weight takes a hike. I am more than happy to share any changes I notice once I am that side of the process.
