Could I REALLY be PREGNANT!?
aortiz1987 replied to tiffanymarie6997's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Only advise I have is to not give up on having a baby. I also have pcos and was told my chances of having a baby (on a scale 1-10) were 2. This was after my husband and I tried for 7 years. I finally gave up hope and BAM I was pregnant the following month. Due to my lack of periods I had ZERO symptoms of being pregnant.. no morning sickness . No sore breast..nothing. I didn’t know I was pregnant until about 6-7 weeks I randomly took a test (it was due to expire in 3months) and it was positive. Although this was pre surgery I am a strong believer that anything is possible. I am now almost at 1 yr post op and going to try again for #2 Try not to stress over it and let it consume your mind(I know, easier said than done ) Good luck sending positive prayers and vibes your way. -
Hello my fellow sleevers I am looking for some insight / stories on pregnancy after being sleeved. I am knocking on my 1 year 10/6/17 and the husband and I have decided we want to try for baby #2. I really want to try but am a little worried about weight gain. Pre surgery I was 325 size 20/3x. Before I got pregnant with my 1st I was 230ish size 16 and gained almost 100lbs with that pregnancy My fear is I'll end up back where I was before surgery. I am current 225 size 12/L which I'm happy at. I also have PCOS which scares me Has anyone got pregnant after surgery? If so how was it/is it? Did you have an issue or gain way more weight than you expected? Were you able to lose the weight? Thank you all for reading

Pain drinking anything...3 days out
aortiz1987 replied to addiesbigdaddy's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I'm 4 days post and feel like I'm always starving maybe I am or maybe it's all mental. I'm not too sure. I am having a hard time getting my Protein Drink down(I'm drinking the isopures ready to drink) it quite frustrating. I do pretty well with apple sauce, tomato Soup, chicken noodle soup, and scrambled eggs (I hate eggs). Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Looks amazing. If you don't mind me asking roughly how much was it. I get sleeved on 10/6 and want to start saving for it as I'm sure I'll need it after 1yr Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Cheated on my pre-op
aortiz1987 replied to eriirosee's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ahhhh I did also last night. I'm now, of course freaking out because I'm scheduled for surgery October 5th AND I'm flying to another state to get it done so ive never met surgeon and am scared I ruined things. I was placed on a 2week diet and have been doing really good minus last night. I had nachos from taco bell (thankfully felt like crap after) ......and then I had a few drinks ... I'm praying that if I stay on track starting today I'll be okay. Good luck!!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
