Hi ladies,

I am getting sleeved October 10th and I have PCOS. I'm really worried this isn't going to work for me because I have struggled so much in the past. I'm happy to see you're having success with it! It gives me hope.

@leslaine, you look great! Thank you for encouraging me to have faith because I definitely want to work hard and get results. How is your eating habits now? Are you still following the program? Protein first, veggies, fruits, and carb?

@teedsg, Thank you! The honeymoon phase ended for me 6 months post-op, and some of my bad habits wanted to creep back in. Be sure to take advantage of those first 6 months where you have the most restriction and rarely get hungry. I've slipped a few times, but still have managed to stay on track by following the program. Stay away from slider foods because you will not feel any restriction when you eat them. I can eat 5 chocolate chip Cookies if I wanted to, but can only eat 1 egg. Just make smart choices every day.

I'm starting to get a lot of compliments/made fun of less and less in public, shopping for clothes is a lot of fun - All of this is giving me the drive to finish this.

Awesome! Thanks for the tips. I hope popcorn isn't a slider for me. I miss it so much.
I'm glad you are staying on track

I'm three months post op today and have PCOS. My weightloss so far has exceeded my surgeons expectations. My endocrinologist was really happy with my progress so far too. She just checked my hormone levels and wants to compare them again in three months. So far I've been following the diet plan and just started exercising again a couple of weeks ago. Total lost is 83lbs, 60 since the preop liquid diet. I'm hopeful my hormone levels will be in normal ranges by this time next year so I can go off my two meds that help control them.
