I have been diagnose with Polycystic Overy Disease in my early 20's.  It a blessing I have 3 children; a son 15 yrs old and 2 daughters 10 and 5.  My doctor brought up WLS 2 years ago, I went to the seminar to learn about it and found out at the time our insurance didn't cover it.  Well I decided to forget about wls and start dieting.  Well I got my PCOS under control and started loosing weight with Metiformin.. Everything was going well till Oct. 2009 my body has gone fully resistance after being on metiformin 5 years and had to get off metiformin.  Once I have gone off Metiformin the weight started climbing and I knew i had to do something beforeI became diabetic.  I saw my primary care in Dec 2009, and I told her I'm going to go forth with the WLS, I said I'm tired of being over weight and tired all the time. She was excited for me and she happy.  She said this will be the best thing I have ever done for myself and she said I will be alot happier and will see a change in myself.   I saw my dr in Dec. 2009 and I weighed 284 lbs.   

Well my husband got good insurance and they do cover the wls so I will start the process!
