Do any ladies have PCOS & are losing weight just fine? Or do you have PCOS & the weight is coming off slowly?

Hello! I've had PCOS for over 12 years. I'm four days Post Op and since the 10 day liquid diet prior to the day of surgery I've lost a total of 15 lbs and counting. Now I will say this is a total reset on the body so the weight should come off pretty fast until we get back to solids. However....a diet that always worked for me in the past to keep weight off was high Protein, low carb. That is my plan to avoid the stall when I start back week 6. Until then...smoothie sailing.

I was diagnosed with PCOS over 10 years ago and struggled to lose weight despite a very active lifestyle. I'm now 7 months post-op and down over 65lbs. I've recently hit a stall but I think it's secondary to working out so much (lots of muscle mass coming on) and me being a little more liberal with my carbs. This has been the best life decision I've made to date besides following Christ.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
