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??

Wow, this is an unexpected question over a year later! Lol. I drank mostly wine, though there were a few nights where I had a pre dinner cocktail or two. Fast forward over a year and I can regularly enjoy a wine or two, or an occasional cocktail with no consequence. I just make sure I track it and make sure I burn it off. All things in moderation. Thanks, I know your post was a while ago, but am having a hard time finding suitable drinks. afraid suagry juices will make me sick. Thanks for your input!!

Hello, I am 6 months out from surgery and have lost 70+ lbs so far. I am 10-15lbs away from goal weight. I am asking a question here NOT to be criticized, but just for suggestions. If you do not agree with drinking after surgery well than thats your life style and my question is for someone who does. That being said,, It's my birthday and my husband and I planned an all inclusive get away WITHOUT the kids. Havent been away since before kids were born 5 years ago. I have no problem making healthy food choices while away. I know Protein first and all that. My real question is what drinks I should have. Again, I know Alcohol is not healthy so I dont need a lecture. But I do like to have a few drinks, especially by the pool. But problem is margaritas and all those frozen drinks are loaded with sugar and will surely make me nauseous, I cant drink carbonated beverages so diet coke and rums or vodka sodas are out. And I dont want anything too strong like martinis b/c I dont want to over due it or be sick. Wine is always safe especially watered down. If anyone has suggestions that I have not thought of id like to hear them. Thanks!!

Thanks for the reply. I guess I will have to spend ths week before the vacation trying out which alcohols work best for me..right..lololol Thanks for the advice. I am thinking a bloody mary may be okay, and a little white wine mixed with crystal ligt.
