Doctor Gave The Go Ahead - It's Ttc Time! :)



Recommended Posts

Well, had an appointment today! :)

I am 6 months and 6 days out of surgery.

I have lost 77 pounds, and my goal weight is 23 pounds away!

I went from 271.2 lbs to now 194.2 lbs this morning!

From a size 22 to a size 14 and a size XXL to a size M! :) I've lost over 66 inches from all over... and I feel great!

I got the GO AHEAD this morning to TTC!!!! I am *SO* excited!

I have PCOS - however, I've been ovulating on my own since July!!!

We were TTC for 27 months, got pregnant in November, and miscarried after Christmas 2011. I needed meds (Metformin) to conceive that baby... and am stoked I'm ovulating on my own now... and now have a doctor that's behind me 100% to TTC! Yay!!! :)

Anyone else TTC? :)

Thank you!!! I am just overjoyed that the doctor is behind me in my endeavor! One of the main reasons I got this surgery was so I could have a baby... so... I'm pretty darn excited to be ovulating on my own and to now be TTC with support! :)

      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.
