Getting pregnant after 100 pound loss with PCOS
thenewdanni78 replied to jtickle's topic in Pregnancy with Weight Loss Surgery
Ok. I'm on the pill now. I'm going to call my GYN tomorrow to see if I can get on a different BC for 18 months. 18 months will be around my 40th birthday so that would be a great gift. Loving Me -

What was your defining moment?
Dknal2 replied to Dknal2's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Thank you. When my doc said I was .3 away from being full diabetic, I was scared to death. I also had such pain in my joints... my knee and hip were hurting me so much. But, since surgery, I have been pain fed. Glad we both took the plunge. I wish you continued success. -

Did you ever...? (a bit gross)
Caleia replied to White Sale's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I've done it. I'm 13 days out of surgery and back to making food for my family. Sadly, food I cannot eat... (My husband cannot cook and they both have been suffering from eating easy to make meals for a few weeks now.). So I made them some steak the other day and while I have been able to stay away from everything else the smell of that steak was killing me. So I did what I thought would help me. I chewed upon the steak and spit it out and fed it to my dog. The psychologist once said if it is bothering you to the point you are obsessing over it. You can set idealistic goals for yourself on how to address your cravings. Now I'm sure they didn't mean 13 days post-OP but, it worked and after 4 bites and spitting it out I was satisfied.

The surgery fixes the BODY but, not the MIND
newbeing replied to 10stackzz's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hello everyone! I am 10 days post op and I can tell you that my therapist and support group have been an integral part of recovery thus far. I used to say, "I will be ok as I don't think I have much of a food addiction " ... I was so wrong. The first few days have been so rough bc all I am left is with...myself! As my therapist put it and it's a tough place to be at. Not being able to go to food, alcohol, or shopping has been something that has made me look into myself and listen to myself. I have a long road ahead but I am so grateful to have a network of support and feel I am not alone. I don't know how people do this without support of a professional or some type of group. Good luck all! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Getting pregnant after 100 pound loss with PCOS
gryffen replied to jtickle's topic in Pregnancy with Weight Loss Surgery
Danni word of caution - your not recommended to get pregnant for 18 months after surgery - check with your insurance/doctor as you may need to have BC established like some require. Best wishes Sent from my HTC One M9 using the BariatricPal App -

All things cheese
OutsideMatchInside replied to ML573663's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I eat all the cheese I want as long as it is real cheese (no fake cheese BS like American or Provel) and it is full fat. Low fat cheese has carbs and more fillers. I like the extra then cheddar slices for my burgers. One slice is 50 calories and it adds just enough cheese. And I eat a lot cream cheese. I make low carb cream cheese pancakes and I have cream cheese as deserts/snacks. -
Question for diabetics
busybeebug replied to krissyfattofab's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I went low a bunch of times during the liquid phase. I would drink a bit of Gatorade or OJ or hot tea with a tsp of sugar. I do consume small amounts of sugar through out the day post op usually in my hot tea or from fruit. If I don't I get lows and life gets miserable. My Surgeon prefers the sugar free diet. I do not tolerate sugar substitutes. I have to learn to live. I keep the sugars under 10g per serving. I have noticed that as time keeps passing, I don't need as much to keep my bs even. Hopefully things will even out for him as well. -

Birth control and weight gain
ladytinkerbell replied to ladytinkerbell's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
This is bad for those of us on this journey. Yes I heard Mirena doesn't do major weight gain, but at this point scared to use any BC until I at least finish my weightloss. What I'm thinking is, I think these BCs mess with our metabolisms, because the changes I noticed were like the way I was before I had the surgery. But I'm hoping someone has be able to kick start their weight loss again, and if so, how? Sent from my SM-N920T using the BariatricPal App -
When does insurance approve?
auttie101 replied to auttie101's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
@@moe_2175 that's so awesome! I have Aetna as well. I have 6 months of visits with my doctor so I'm hoping to walk in on the 11th and submit to the insurance that day. I'm hoping bc I have everything together I can get a surgery date scheduled and get my life back. So Aetna didn't require any extra testing for approval?

Hi, has anyone had a problem with weight gain and staying on when getting on birth control? I took the birth control out in july. I had a baby, and after the baby continued my weightloss down to 216, then got on BC that has caused me to gain weight at 248, after I took it out up until now I have fluctuated between 245-250, but cannot get back on my weight loss journey. I wanted to get down to 180 and then go for my tummy tuck. Anyone have any suggestions? It has been 6 months and I just cannot get it off ???? Sent from my SM-N920T using the BariatricPal App

Anyone with a low BMI (30-33) had sleeve surgery or will be?
charlies.angel replied to SD123's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
PS- everyone's journey is is different. I joined this group for support, never even thinking that I would be frowned upon bc of my lower than 40 BMI. I really hope that is not the case. -
I have stalled.... This week I only lost [.2 ] lbs. I even started a new workout regiment....I think its bc Im not getting enough calories. I re-started an online food journal (fitness pal) and according to it, in the last week i haven't gone above 400 calories this past week. Im trying....but the point of getting sleeved is to CUT food consumption.....right? My mind is trying to wrap itself around how im supposed to eat MORE to LOOSE weight... pureed food looks like puke. Protein shakes taste like ass & they make me wanna puke. Imma greek yogurt-it more this week &see what happens. I will be glad when I can eat food ya chew. I'll KNOW what to eat then! Veggies & whole foods that DON'T taste like ass & look like puke! Ha! #thisSOMEstr8BSyo
