When i saw my nut last Monday she told me that prenatals are not enough and recommended i stay on the fusion at 4 a day and add Calcium, folate, D3 and Iron. I really hate this conflicting recommendations everyone seems to give. Ugh so confusing!

My niece had bypass in april this year and had pcos. After 15 years of not getting pregnant she is now about 8 weeks pregnant! I found out a day before her that I'm pregnant too at 6 months post-op from the sleeve. I'm 42 and had been trying since my last daughter was born in 2011.

Thanks for all your input. Guess i'm just being impatient. Didn't get obese over night guess it's not gonna come off so easily either. I'm thankful for no more metformin and normal blood sugars.

I am almost 4 weeks post -op and i have only lost 6 pounds I am so confused. sw 205 cw 199

almost 4 weeks post op only 6 pounds lost

:)I agree with NikkiV1986. If you have a juicer you could do the juice fast. Good Luck

When i had my sleep study a year before even hearing or know about WLS They didnt wake me up to put a cpap on and within days of the sleep study the Dr. called to tell me he was sending over a oxygen machine asap till i could come back in for an other night to find out what pressure the cpap needed to be on then he made an appt. for me to him for the stats. 114 apneas in an hour!! 30 and over is considered severe! So ya they may not put you on a cpap during the study if they see you have it but you can ask the techs in the morning before you leave the center if they saw anything. They can't give you specifics per say.

About a week. Good Luck

Thank you Ladies for your responses. Tomorrow I have my 4th appointment at the surgeons office. 2 more then the big submit! Looking forward to the future and god willing see my 2 yr. old daughter have kids of her own. I feel at peace with my decision to have the surgery. Thank you all again.

I have been doing a lot of research lately about healthy living. Plant based foods etc. I am worrying myself sick about the what if's. I just wish there was more data out there about your health 10-20 years down the road with VSG. I don't want to trade my current health issues for a different set of health issues. I currently have sleep apnea, diabetes and high cholesterol. Just so confused if i could turn all these health issues around with plant based foods etc. I guess what i'm searching for is people that have tried these options and decided on VSG anyway. Regrets? Any thoughts would be helpful. Thanks.

I too look forward to losing the c-pap mask and hopefully the diabetes. May or June can't come fast enough! Good luck to you!

That would be nice if my Dr. can use my consult. weight.

My BMI right now is 37 my insurance will pay if you have 2 co-morbidities and BMI is between 35-40. I have severe sleep apnea, high cholesterol and diabetes so I'm covered there. I just hope I don't lose to much Someday I would really like to sleep without my c-pap mask.....forever!
