I got pregnant very soon after my surgery. I am 29 weeks today and have lost 30lbs and have not gained a thing. At first i was losing about 5lbs a month or more. Now i am losing about a lb or 2.

I got pregnant 3 weeks after being sleeved. Yeah am not sure exactly how all that worked out. Anyways I am 28 weeks now yes vomiting was bad in the first trimester but i try hard to keep up with hydration. I have lost 30lbs since i found out and my baby is measuring ahead. I am on acid reflux meds because i have it bad but i did have it before baby. Nausea is tolerable you will get used to it! Congrats

I had an opps moment on this pregnancy. I havent had a period in like 6 months I have PCOS and 3 weeks almost 4 I tested positive. I actually tested because i vomitted i was almost sure i ate to fast but no i was pregnant. My doctor deals with high risk but not wls patients guess that's why i see my surgeon every month.

I am 16 weeks and i have lost 18lbs. My ob wants me to gain 15 if i need to gain weight. He says most women change to healthier eating habits which leads to weight loss

thats what happened to me I am 15 weeks post op and 12 weeks pregnant. That was a big opps. I have pcos so I was really surprised. I am still losing weight just not as fast. Since i found out i was pregnant I have lost about 17lbs. My ob says that's at a good rate and my baby is on track.

Wow that is amazing. I had surgery oct. 30th. I had sex a week later and here I am 6 weeks pregnant. I found out i was 3 weeks nov. 19th.

So how many weeks post op where you then when you found out?
-
I am on progesterone also. What it is, is a hormone your body makes naturally when your pregnant before 12 weeks I believe it helps sustain the pregnancy. I for example had a progesterone level of 11.5 when i found out i was pregnant which is on the lower normal end. I was put on progesterone. I did some research and anything less than 10 during pregnancy can cause a miscarriage.

I was banded last year in feburary. I lost about 85lbs. It was complicated I was constantly being overfilled and I would throw up. After a few months I got acid reflux and it swelled my band completely shut twice. Finally in March of this year the whole band slipped and I gained 50 of my lbs back. I was sleeved 10/30 and I feel better except my acid reflux. I am against the band now

Hmmmm good idea. I didnt think of mixing. Man it is a little early in the game to not be wanting Protein anymore. Maybe hot chocolate for me.

Well thats good... the weight is not melting off like I would like, but it will be ok. I do not get the stuck feeling, but I do get the super stuffed feeling really fast. I can eat about 2 oz in a sitting. I try to drink a lot of Water also. One problem i do have is this Protein Shake thing. I get nauseated drinking it. Even thinking about it makes me want to throw up.

14 days post op with reflux at night. I'm at full liquid stage. Is it possible i am just " eating" to late? I take prevacid every morning.
-
I had surgery on 10/30. I had that feeling if I drank to fast and if it was cold. Just drink maybe smaller sips.
-
I was freezing my first week post op. My feet were cold even with socks on. I thought i was catching a cold.
-
I am regularly a stomach sleeper. I am only 5 days post-op. Will I still be able to sleep on my stomach eventually? I ask this because on my 3rd day I woke up on my stomach and with acid reflux.

Thank you so much guys for your words. I will do my best. Glad all is well on you guys end.

It's 2 days post op for me and I am still in the hospital for the swelling around my stomach. It causes me a lot of discomfort to drink and it makes me short of breath. I am pushing threw it though. I have not been hungry yet. Maybe that's the swelling?? Anyone have that problem?
-
Ok so first day post op. I was a band to sleeve revision. My new stomach decided to swell. Now I can't eat or drink anything. I had my barium swallow done this morning for the leaks. No leaks just that the dye wouldnt go down!:\

I had my son July 25th of this year. I lost 26 lbs between the first and second trimester. I gained 3 lbs in the last trimester. After I gave birth I lost 10lbs of everything in there I am assuming. Now I am at 318 when the first day I went to the doctor I was 365 at 6 weeks 5 days.
