I've also been diagnosed Maybe we should start a group here because I would love that!!!
DI'd you happen to find a support group. I've been recently diagnosed with PCOS.
I feel for all of you and wish I could give you all big hugs!!! I too am the left behind spouse... not really but he had the surgery and I didn't, now everyone is complimenting him all the time and I feel like maybe, if I walked on my hands and sang the national anthem backwards people MIGHT give me the time of day. Maybe. I'm only about half serious... but while I am so thrilled with MOST of our new life together, I do not like feeling like "the fat one," I qualify for WLS (just barely) but my doctor wants me to try working on my lifestyle... which I am... but I am ready to throw in the towel. The hubby tells me I'm wonderful, he told me that before the surgery and he wants us to be healthy together but I am just tired of being the fat wife! I don't know what to do... I'm trying to lose weight... trying very hard to lose weight. It just ain't happening fast enough!!! :D

Thanks for the response. Before my surgery he was very apprehensive. He's much better now but he was looking around the site for some answers to questions

Please consult your surgeon & nutritionist for how to do it their way. Biggest regret? Not doing this 10 years ago! Every day is better than the day before...and it was a pretty great day!
My husband had his surgery first and I started making things like Mockzanya and it was fine for me to eat pre-op and for him to eat post-op. I would not be making him things he should not be eating anyway, like starchy carbs. There is no reason he can't eat whatever you are eating and I'd stop buying chips and ice cream. You do not need those things hanging around your home, IMO.
