Didn't they test you pre-op for pregnancy? Man, every time I had any test pre-op, i was tested. Even though i'm 52!!

So...is this happy news or not quite....?

If I were you, I'd be at my 24 hr Walgreens buying up pregnancy tests to see for myself!!

Congratulations if you are!!! Yay!!! :)

I gained 60 lbs + with each of my 2 kids, I was able to lose most with the first kid, not at all with the second kid. I used to dread my checkups because I would gain so much each visit. The sleeve may well be a blessing for you!!

You know what? This actually may not put a 'bump' (lol) on your weight loss. Babies don't use their moms current fat storage to help them grow. I suspect that you will be pleasantly suprised at the shape your body is going to take. You'll be losing fat where it's been stored, but you'll be growing a beautiful bump. I think its great!!! Just make sure you eat really healthy and take your Vitamins. That's going to be extra important now.

And your little baby is going to have LOTS of 'sleever aunts & uncles' to help watch over the little tyke! We want ALL the details.

Chin up, in 9 months you'll have a beautiful baby and as a sleever you'll be able to lose any extra baby weight pretty quickly. Although i really doubt you'll gain a whole lot of extra weight.

Hugs!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
