Yeah that's me I'm 35. I'm 5 weeks pregnant today.. I hadn't really realized that I'd be put in that category but atlas I am. I'm what they refer to as Advanced Maternal Age Boo almost saddens me to say it. I am 100 lbs healthier that I was when I had my older children but my eggs unfortunately are 35 years old just like me which makes me high risk coupled with me being a bariatric patient it puts me at a higher risk for all sorts of complications. Anybody else on the same boat as me I need a buddy right about now.

Let's Check In November 2012 Sleevers!
soocalchic replied to timetobefree's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Just wanted to check in as well. My 2 year surgiversary is coming up in a few days. I just had a baby and I'm at goal weight. I started this journey at 315lbs and I'm happy to report that I'm at 184lbs now. It's been super tough but I've done it. Now it's maintenance mode which is not easy folks. -
Did most have baby girls or boys after VSG?
soocalchic replied to re14768's topic in Pregnancy with Weight Loss Surgery
I just delivered my baby boy 4 weeks ago. I wouldn't rely too much on that Google search lol -
post op moms - Did you have to have a c-section?
soocalchic replied to makemyownluck's topic in Pregnancy with Weight Loss Surgery
I just delivered my baby 4 weeks ago via csection. I'm almost 2 years out from having my sleeve. This was a repeat Csection so totally not related to my sleeve. To answer your question having gastric sleeve doesn't mean you'll have to have a CS to deliver your baby. -
what have you been snacking on? Try fruits and veg low calorie snacks work but if you're eating chips. Crackers and donuts as a snack I can see where those 5lbs came from lol

A nice push up bra would work wonders on that dress. Like PP mentioned it doesn't flatter your figure makes you look almost matronly. Just my opinion take it with a grain of salt lol. I would wear a push up bra self tan and curl that beautiful hair that a red pair of pumps and you're ready to rule the world.. Enjoy

lol nice to meet you.. I've been sleeved for almost 2 years now. Best decision I've made

Dr Cuneen did a revision on my lapband port and Dr Burch took my lapband out and sleeved me.

I was sleeved at Cedars also who's your doc?

5 Days Post Op - How long did you take pain meds or have pain?
soocalchic replied to LucianaVictoria's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You can take extra strength liquid Tylenol it should help with the pain. Sounds like your doctor is just jaded and not wanting to give you any more narcotics. He should have told you to buy some over the counter meds instead of being a douche. Pain should be low enough where you can manage with OTC pain meds instead of a narcotic. Chin up Tylenol won't constipate you like liquid hydrocodone. Make sure you are moving around walking gets all that gas out of your abdominal cavity which is what causes the most amount of discomfort. -

23 weeks pregnant after gastric bypass
soocalchic replied to lovelylaya941's topic in Pregnancy with Weight Loss Surgery
I declined the glucose tolerance test I get bad dumping syndrome. Ask your doctor for an alternate they will have you keep track of your blood sugars for 2 weeks to check if you're in the normal range.
