I’ve had a bit of regain the past few months. 15lbs I just met with my nutritionist who I haven’t seen since I had the surgery to buckle down and start losing again. -

(2018) I was around 211 when I got pregnant and delivered at 240. I still had elevated blood pressure throughout my pregnancy. I also did have gestional diabetes so I was induced at 37 weeks & 3days. With my second(2020) I was 220 when I got pregnant and delivered at 240 again. He is now 14 months and I'm 139lbs. So it did take me a lot longer to loose the weight, but I was only 22 when I got the surgery. I don't regret taking longer to loose the weight.

I've had two pregnancies since the sleeve. With my first I was only 11 months post op and not at my goal weight.

Almost 4 years post vsg. I got pregnant 11 months after having the sleeve. I lost 100lbs. I've had 2 pregnancies and gained 22lbs with the first and 20lbs with the second. I lost the weight quickly after having the kids. I did have extra growth ultrasounds during both pregnancies. They were both fairly easy.

I had the vsg in May of 2017. I got pregnant with my first 11 months post op. I never hit my goal weight, oops. I'm now due in December with #2 and I'm really hoping to lose the weight in the New year. -

I was 11 months out of surgery when I found out I was pregnant with my first. I am now 3 years post op and pregnant with baby #2. For both pregnancies it took one month after stopping the pill.

Bariatric Vitamins vs. Multivitamin vs. Prenatal

I'm on pregnacy # 2 since I've had surgery. I just take the target brand prenatals and a calcium chew. -
Hey y'all, my highest weight was 327lbs😥 I had the vsg on 5/2/17. I got down to 211lbs then found out I was pregnant in 4/18. I got up to 227lbs during pregnancy. I lost that pregnancy weight right away, but have been stuck at 211lbs since having baby almost 15 months ago. I have been tracking my food not going over 1,200 and exercising 3 days a week. Anyone else have a stall?

I found out I was pregnant at 11 months post OP from the sleeve. I ended up gaining 17lbs during the pregnancy. 28 weeks you have to be tested for gestational diabetes. I didn't want to drink the glucola drink so I opted to test my blood sugars. At 34 weeks they gave me the diagnosis of gestational diabetes, because I had slightly high fasting sugars (100, when the cut off is 94) they wanted me to get extra ultrasounds and meet with a high risk OB. Mind you I was livid at this point. There was already talk of being induced early for high blood pressure (130/80s which was norm, for me even before pregnancy) and now they wanted me to go on metformin. I had a growth ultrasound at 35 weeks, nugget was only 5lbs 2oz. I was induced at 37 weeks and 3 days, gave birth to a 5 lbs 6oz baby girl. She's 10 weeks old now, breastfeeding like a champ! I've lost 28lbs, wanting to loose another 50, but not wanting it to affect my BM supply. -

Has anyone kept their surgery a secret?

None of my extended family members know. I didn't want many people knowing, my husband told his family and I was livid. -
What is the best time?- May be TMI

I swear by colace. It didn't make my stomach cramp like m.o.m. The max dosage is 3 pills a day. You could take them all at once or break them up through out the day. If it's really bad you could try magnesium citrate.
