I only bought clothes when I needed them for events or trips, I bought jeggings because they stretch so I always bought a size smaller and wore some of my old tops as much as possible I really don't buy much now either and I'm a year post op. I am too busy selling off my old ones on PoshMark.

August post op sleevers: Check in
MzGee replied to motherof5's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
It's been a year I did reach my initial goal of losing 100lbs but also I discovered I was pregnant in April about 8 months out from VSG. I am happy and so far the baby is healthy I'm due 12/16/15. Congrats to you all August 2014 sleevers! HW330 SW315 CW214 and pregnant . -
Sorry so late haven't been posting I've been consumed with my pregnancy!!! I actually lost my hair before surgery in certain areas they said it was a combination of PCOS, and stress. The hair follicles were there still the dermatologist said and sure enough it was grown back as if nothing ever happened. I haven't had anymore bald spots since vsg. Are you on birth control? I ask because I took it to help regulate my hormones and balance that testosterone.

Hi Ladies just checking in. I haven't been here in a while, the pregnancy has been hard for me, this is my first, constant vomiting and now I'm fainting. I go today to meet with a diabetic counselor at my high risk doctors office, because of the fainting, low blood sugar, low blood pressure and they don't want me to slip in a coma that's how bad my glucose tolerance test was. So far I've gained 2 pounds after losing 15 pounds after finding out I was pregnant. They want me to gain weight I'm currently at 217 pounds. The baby weighs 2 lbs and 6oz at 26 weeks he is doing great based on all their tests. How is everyone else?

Hey, Ladies I am 8 months out from Gastric Sleeve surgery and just found out I am pregnant 6 wks now I don't go to the OBGYN until 5/27/15 and then I check in with my WLS surgeron on 6/1/15. I stopped by his office today only to pick up paperwork to give to the OBGYN. I have to admit this was unplanned and with PCOS I thought I'd never get pregnant, so I am looking at this as a blessing. How are you guys doing? I'm nervous and anxious.

Surgery 8.18.14 HW 330 SW 317 CW 250

I have experienced all of the affects from PCOS! I was sleeved on 8/18/14, I still have excess facial hair and it's growing fast I'm used to it now being diagnosed as an adolescent. But my hair has grown back in a bald spot on my head I did see a dermatologist so he gave to steroids for my scalp, before surgery I started taking biotin pills and I do that everyday which is limiting my hair loss. I stopped taking my birth control and I've been having a normal period for 2 months now which is new I think that has to do with the weight loss. I want to have a child as well, and so past posts here gave me hope!

I haven't had any post op blood test! I probably need one though I feel so sluggish at times and then at other times I literally can walk for miles and do. Smh I feel like I'm going bipolar in real life. I'm still alive I had a stall about 2weeks then dropped 6 pounds. Sleeved on 8/18. Highest weight 330/ SW 313/ CW 274 . I thought I would've lost more by now ! Anybody else feel the same? ???? -
I've only lost 56 pounds and I'm noticing the difference already I had to stuff my bra smh, but true, my bra didn't fit anymore like it used too, I just had surgery on 8/18/14 so I'm not going out and buying bras because they may even get more smaller. Bras are expensive ! Lol smh I was a 42 DDD I feel like I lost at least a cup size already. ????

No shoes no clothes or very little clothes and my doctor said once a week too because more than that you will drive yourself insane!

What do you eat on a normal day? Im worried :s
MzGee replied to yescobar's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I am still adjusting to how limited my stomach is, surgery on 8/18/14 and because my taste and appetite has changed so drastically I often find myself afraid to eat. I get so sick to my stomach from foods or dread throwing up. I still can only eat a couple of bites of food and it really of course depends on the food and texture which limits the amount. -

HW 330 SW 317 CW 292 I just started physical activity since getting cleared by the doctor on 9/18 , one month from surgery. Hopefully that will allow to burn these pounds, I also need to increase my protein. -

August Sleevers Check In
MzGee replied to Sweet Pea STL Sleever's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
The liquid Loratab I thinks that's the name was horrible, every time I would swallow it I felt like Gatling and vomiting, I did throw up once but the prescription hydro condone is working. -
