loubotins hurt your feet They are the most uncomfortable shoes I've ever worn not worth the 1200 bucks I really like Jessica Simpsons shoes they are amazingly comfortable I can walk in them all day.. -

Will I ever drink water normally again?
soocalchic replied to alocklea's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Yes and no. If you were used to chugging water like I used too then the answer is No and it has made me sad in the past. You will however be able to drink more easily the further out you get. Chin up -
Surrogacy after sleeve?
soocalchic replied to sleevie.wonder's topic in Pregnancy with Weight Loss Surgery
Being a bariatric patient would automatically qualify you as a high risk pregnancy, Most people are not willing to do since they are spending a lot of time money and effort to have a healthy baby -
About 20 lbs up after baby
soocalchic replied to skinny ma's topic in Pregnancy with Weight Loss Surgery
I would try doing liquids only for about a week but probably not until you wean your baby.. And again go back to basics protein first lots of veggies cut your carbs and exercise of course.. Congrats on the baby I'm expecting due in September -

looking good girlie.. Strut your stuff.. -
UTI's are not common but if you are having issues with hydration that can be the culprit. UTI doesn't equal STD, if you're worried about that maybe you should see your gynecologist. Drink up and get a script to clear out that UTI. You'll be ok

First Pangs of Regret
soocalchic replied to LumpySpacePrincess's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
you just had major surgery, allow your body time to heal and adjust. Keep doing what you are doing you will see results. Look back at your old pictures 65 lbs is a lot of weight already. Follow your doctors orders trust it get easier as time goes by.. -

women have made it through successful pregnancies after going through a situation like yours, become your best advocate and do what you see fit.. All very scary but doable.. -

soocalchic replied to chanelle102's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I think you have you mind made up about terminating this pregnancy.. You shouldn't seek validation as to why you should or shouldn't do it. Follow your heart and find another doctor who will terminate your pregnancy before you get any further along. I had an ultrasound yesterday and saw my baby's heart beat so I feel for you and know its a tough decision to make. -

Urgent help needed!
soocalchic replied to chanelle102's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I am currently 8 weeks prego but I'm at goal and 14 months out from surgery.. You can have lots of tests that are non invasive to check on your passengers health.. Those are done at 12 weeks so maybe see a perinatologist and get their opinion. Don't stress yourself out, if that little guy is still hanging on maybe it's meant to be. lots of women have gotten pregnant early on after surgery and I think there is somebody who went through the same thing you did. She managed to have a healthy baby and still lost weight. I'm here if you need help or guidance.. -

my 600 pound life-pennys story
soocalchic replied to katt1584's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was so mad I wanted to shake her right out of her bed. She's a professional victim likes being catered to and will die in the bed no thanks to her enabling husband. I feel sorry for her kid.. WLS is a tool not a magic bullet you have to do the work and be compliant and she didn't do any of that.. What a waste if time and resources..
