Soo, I've hit 3 months and 50lbs down. I have PCOS. During the last week, I've been experiencing sore nipples. They are just a little tender now. I've gone to my pcp and she found nothing wrong. I've take a urine and blood preg test in which both come back negative. In the past when I did have my cycles, I never experienced anything like this. Can anyone help

me as to what this could possibly be. Some people say I could be preg and it's just too soon to show up.... Idk.... PLEASE HELP!!!! And since my nipples started hurting (no other symptoms) all I've been wanting to eat is Red Beans & Rice from Popeyes chicken. I've not wanted to eat anything else. I tried a McDonalds Fish today and it didn't agree with me...

If you've had all those tests done already you can probably rule out pregnancy. Nipple pain can indicate so many things in a woman, namely hormone changes. I found that after surgery with the change in diet and increased consistent flow of Vitamins and minerals EVERYTHING changed, from my used to be very normal periods (which now seem to be every 2 months!) to my preferred taste in food (I seem to prefer salty over sweet as a treat these days) and even the amount of perspiration I have while working out. Before surgery I would RAIN perspiration while working out, now I can go a good 45-60 minutes and hardly break a sweat..I'm sure you can find more info somewhere on this site in regards to your issues, but definitely consider hormone changes. As a mother of three I know that the change in hormones can cause the exact same issues with your body as the pregnancy (probably because essentially the same thing is happening ;) ) Hoping the best for you!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
