  1. Hello!! I need some help. I have polycystic ovarian syndrome and insulin resistance. I got banded 07/2010. I've only lost 50 pounds. The first 5 months I lost weight weekly and then everything stopped. I was able to maintain all this time until the last three months and i've gained 15 pounds back total. I've always my whole life had bad heartburn and recently I was in the ER and again at the doctos from so much Nausea. I think I have an ulcer. Getting and EGD done this week and my band doctor wants upper GI done next week. I never have energy, and I have a hard time getting the energy to exercise. I nap after work. I have an hour ride home to work and back. I'm just tired all the time so it's hard to want to exercise. I know that is a big problem, but I know I don't get enough protein in my diet. I've been raking in the medical bills and find it hard to afford the food I need to eat. As we all have found, to eat healthy, it cost more then to eat bad. I feel like a failure and let everyone including myself down because I'm starting to hear comments! I don't know what to do and don't want to gain anymore weight. I will take all feedback negative and postive. I need exercise routines, protein suggestions, recipes and support. Please someone....I can't even afford to go to the nutritionist cause my insurance does not cover it. Thank you everyone for taking the time to listen.

    Gaining weight!! HELP

    Thank you so much for your reply. I appreciate all your suggestions!!! I will most definately try these out.
  3. I was banded in 07/2010. I have PCOS, (polycystic ovarian syndrome) and was told that my weight loss would be slower then the average cause of the PCOS. As of today I've lost 54 pounds. Which I'm happy with, don't mind the slow weight loss as long as i'm losing. The past two months, I feel like I've lost my motiviation. The weather is still cold, im bored with my exercise and haven't been doing them. Find myself wanting the foods I shouldn't have. It's like I forgot why I had the band to begin with. I need to get my motiviation back so I can get back on track and start losing more weight. Anyone else get in a rut and have some thoughts on how to get back to being motivated? All information is welcome !!Thanks.
