You wait.. I have PCOS and am on pills to stop my periods. Guess what?! I've had 5 periods, two of which lasted over 17 days each!

Our reproductive systems are fighting back!

FANTASTIC news! Isn't it amazing how even fat can block the hormones? Great news for you.

Good for you....WARNING though. I am a lap band revision and when I got my lap band, started getting periods again...boom got pregnant 6 months out of lap band surgery. LOVE my lap band baby/little girl but it was a big surprise. My doctor was not pleased and it stopped the weight loss. Good news though...my baby was healthy and I only gained 30lbs with that pregnancy. Now that I have the sleeve, I am taking off the weight I gained back with her and with the first baby (15 yo now) ... it takes me awhile but I am determined to do it. Happy for your period to come back and good luck with wherever you want that to go :)

      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.
