I have been heavy all my life but when I hit 30 my PCOS went crazy and I couldn't loose weight drinking Water and eating air as my diabetic doctor so bluntly put it when he got my tests back. I finally after ever test that could be done decided to have the VSG. Since the surgery I lost weight at very effective rate and when I lost my 1st 31 lbs. I was so over joyed I could have screamed since that is the most I have ever lost!!! I am 8 months out now and have slowed in my weight loss but atleast I am still loosing.

I have PCOS too and am getting sleeved on the 27th. I was wondering how someone with PCOS progresses with their weight loss. Is it slower? .....I would like to know some stats......

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
