I have read that the weight comes off slower if you have PCOS. I have also been told by the nurse at my dr office that people have the surgery just to cure the PCOS!

I am having the surgery in 2 weeks and I am doing it to cure the pcos

@ebarclay yes that is what I meant to have all symptoms disappear and for my cycle to regulate on it's own [emoji1373]

Best of luck!!!!

Im looking forward to my symptoms disappearing especially the huritism

I am 13 days post op and I am already noticing a decrease in my huritism. My skins is clearer. I believe my insulin resistance is under control.

Ive also lost another 14 lbs in the last 2 weeks. I think if we follow the plan, our weight-loss will be equal to the norm

God you are amazing thank you for keeping me posted
