    Looking for PCOS success stories!

    Update. Im 5.5 months post op and got new labs this week.... my insulin level are down to normal, my testosterone levels are down to normal and I am ovulating on my town. Although we have to wait a few more months to try, my endocrinologist feels that we have a pretty good chance.of being successful. I'll be 46 years young and thanks tto the sleeve, a lot more healthy. Ive lost 82# from my heaviest weight and 70#since surgery. Sent from my SM-N920P using BariatricPal mobile app

    That is hard. I was fortunate that my mother in lae lives with me and does most of the cooking. I stayed out of the kitchen as much as possible, but my husband eat junk food in front of me all the time. Thats a steuggle, but the fear of dumping keeps me on track.

    Im off metformin as well and doing great without it. I struggled on the liquid diet. I had to drink 5 shakes a day, but some days i still felt hungry. I did cheat a couple times and ate a slice of cheese and a piece of grilled chicked once. I told my surgeon about it before surgery and ge said I was still ok for surgery. I guess I had some good cheats :-)

    Ive also lost another 14 lbs in the last 2 weeks. I think if we follow the plan, our weight-loss will be equal to the norm

    I've been having a similar experience ony left side. It hurts when I move. Im 6 days post op and still have to take pain meds. ;-(
  12. Im 6 days post op and still have a lot of pain on the left side. I hurt when I stand, when I sit, turn or move in a number of ways. Ive been trying to decrease the use of the pain meds but Ive only been able to go 7-8 hours between doses. Is that normal?
