I was sleeved aug 8th 2013. Anyone going through the process now just have faith that this IS the best decision of your life. I started at 233lbs..I had pcos infertility and high trigycerides. I am 11 months out and my weight has stabled out at about 150lbs. I just found out this week that we are expecting baby #3 conceived naturally thanks to my 83lb weight loss..I love my new life. Check out my gallery of pictures and my blog posting on here to get my full story..good luck to all

How is everyone doing? ? I have lost 78 lbs and am only losing a pound or two a month. . Surgery was august 8th 2013...I exercise 4-6 days a week andtry to stay under 800 calories. . High weight 235 surgery weight 216 current weight 154... height 5"3

Funny. . Before surgery we can't imagine being told were too thin. But now people say it with that look of concern on their faces and it kind of pisses me off. . It's my body. . None ever tells yiu when you're fat. .. don't gain anymore weight. .lolol.I guess its always something. . Most important is to be as healthy as we can I think our bodies know best which weight we level off at...

Anyone else starting to have people saying " youre getting to skinny..Youre at the perfect weight now..DONT lose anymore weight...??? Some people have started saying this to me. (Very few people know I had surgery) But I'm 5 ' 2 and 154lbs. I'm still 20lbs away From my Maximum weight of 135lbs...Im suppose to be 104-135. Now call the bmi scale what you will. personally I feel fine at 154lbs but my surgeon seems to think i will lose another 20lbs over time. I tell people I enjoy exercise and eating healthy and my body will do what it wants with that. And thats the truth. would I like to see the scale bacl at my high school weight of 135lbs,,sure...I didnt to all this to still be 20lbs overweight, now did I. My main goal now is replacing any fat with lean muscle. I am enjoying my new life style and hate that people have to be negative about it.. Anyone else experience this??

Maybe someone can help me. Yes i will call my dr, but sometimes even they dont know. So since my sleeve in august 2013 I have lost about 76lbs. Its been about 8 months. I have pcos cysts on both ovaries. Funny thing with me is I get my period every month pretty much at the same to but DO NOT ovulate. Yes its possible (It sucks but its possible) Anyway tis month I was two weeks late..convinced I was pregnant but after AF visited I guess I am not. I have been having pains,, not severe just like if i get up too fast or turn over. I guess its the cysts. But my lower abdomen feels distended a bit and bloated. Any ideas what could be there problem. And does anyone know what effect weight loss has on PCOS?

OMG Congrats! I could cry for joy for you!! I have cysts all over both ovaries even after losing 70lbs. I hope and pray for the day that I get my ultrasound and they are gone!! Wishing you well on your journey for a baby!! I had my two girls via ivf a few years back!!

The test which I had done years ago to confirm pcos diagnosis with reproductive endocronologist and must recently with my obgyn tests for testosterone levels I think ad well as some ratio LH vs something or another. I guess some drs just dianose you based on symptoms but true pcos will show up in these tests. I have my two kids via ivf so not actively trying to conceive and I know it will never be GONE I was just hoping maybe it just might dissapear like I've heard some say

I was diagnosed with pcos at 20 years old. I weighed about 165lbs then. I was just sleeved on august 8th 2013 weighing 233 lbs. I am now 156 LBS and recent blood work shows that I still have pcos. So discouraging. My cycle has always been a little off but always monthly. This month I was 2 weeks late. Though for sure I was pregnant. Nope just my pcos showing its ugly face. Lol 10 lbs lighter than when I was first diagnosed hopefully at goal weight of 133 lbs things will improve.

I went to a support group when I was only 8 weeks out and I with the exception of 1 woman was by far the thinnest in the room. I was thinking, maybe everyone was very very large before surgery or maybe they just didnt lose well. One woman kept talking about how she loves drinking beer and drinking soda and how she cant stop and cant lose weight. I was soo annoyed to even be there that I havent gone back since. I'm now 7 months post op and doing well. Thinking of going back to the "support" group again to touch base with others...hoping for a better experience

sounds like we are about the same size.. speaking of padding..noticing all these bones i didnt know i had. at first im alarmed thinking omg whats that.. must be a lump or something..that doesnt feel right...hahaha...

Surgery was August 8th ,2013 HW 233 SW 216 CW HOLY CRAP I'm 157 lbs.. I havent been this weight since I was a teenager. On a side note.. Everyones telling me 'Dont lose anymore weight you look perfect as you are" BUT according to the stupid BMI I have to lose another 22lbs JUST to be at my absolute highest healthy weight. I find that a bit absurd. I feel great at my current weight but figure I can lose 10-20 more lbs so I have a few lbs of wiggle room if I ever want another child.. How has everyone responded to YOUR weight loss??
