Two Years, 70 Pounds...and Pregnant!! :)



Recommended Posts

Well, I've lost 70 pounds...about 30-35 from my goal...but that is going to have to wait. Just found out that we are expecting our first baby!! I'm only a little over 6 weeks along, but feeling awesome so far. Another cool thing...my GP says I'm not high risk! I have perfect blood pressure and great pulse...something I never would have had without the surgery.

Anyway, a lot can still happen (go wrong) so I'm not telling EVERYONE yet, but yeah. I consider that a success.. Would have been a lot harder trying to conceive before I lost the weight. This was only our second try. :)

For now, just praying for a healthy baby...first ultrasound in two 1/2 weeks...I can hardly wait! I am totally a bag of nerves...I just need to see that things are progressing as they should.. Then I can breathe a bit!!

Hope everyone on here is doing well. Blessings, all!

Congrats. I can relate. It took us two years to conceive. I did WW and lost 50lbs, got pregnant after I lost that. Of course gained it all back plus more. At my daughters first bday party, I was pregnant and didn't know it. Found out two weeks afterwards. Now we have two miracles and I lost over 20lbs during my second pregnancy.

I'm saying all this to say a few things; you're not alone with the bag of nerves (I was there), MIRACLES do happen, once you have this healthy baby (because I'm praying for you) be careful because you can get pregnant very easily and most of CONGRATS on your expected arrival :)

Keep us updated. Wishing you the very best in everything.

Congratulations!!! That is a wonderful blessing! It also gives me hope as I have been unable to conceive and the only thing they could come up with is the weight.

Here is to blessings for a beautiful and healthy baby!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
