Weight gain after having a baby..
Brenda15 replied to Lema's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was sleeved in 2011. I had a baby in 2014, I was at my goal weight. Because of several rusk factors, I knew my angel would be early. I had to increase my protein. I did indulge in dill pickles, this was really my only craving. Lol! Anyways, I gained 34 lbs during my 7 1/2 month pregnancy. I was scared! At about 6 weeks post partum, I was back to my pre pregnancy weight. I was going through alot of stress in my life as well as a back injury. I reverted back to stress eating. One day, I stepped on the scales and had gained 37 lbs. Its been hard, but I am watching what I eat and trying to be more active. I never want to be that overweight again. -
I had the sleeve 5 yrs ago, I still can't eat lettuce. I can however eat baby spinach. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App

It gets better as you heal. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App I went through the same feelings. Mourning the loss of some fav foods. I really wish they discussed these feeling more before surgery. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App

Post Partum Depression = weight gain, more depressed
Brenda15 replied to JaspersGirl's topic in Pregnancy with Weight Loss Surgery
I'm in the same boat. I gained 34 lbs during pregnancy, lost it all during the first few weeks post partum. Depression kicked in and I am up 30 lbs. I too feel like a failure and that is why I have logged back on. I need support and ideas. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App -
