I love the camel back bottles. They kinda force you to sip. I have two and they are great.

Straws don't bother anyone with to much air. My doctor said to say away from straws Becuse you take in to much air. Or is that just for a short time after surgery. Everybody here sounds like its not bothering them. Make me wonder

I can't swallow so I start sucking and it always leads to more than it leads to a new baby. But I am done for at least 3-4 yrs. I have 4 now and 3 under 3 so I want this time for me.

Did you have problems getting pregnant when being over weight?

Just being curious... Why lose weight to gain it back in 3-4 years? When you get pregnant you have to eat & with the exception of me you gain a lot of weight. I gain 15 pounds with 2 pregnancies & 7 pounds with my last child.

I would want to have all the babies then get surgery. Do they open you up again insurance covering of course after you have a baby redo gastric bypass?

I've never had kids. I was pushing 280 and could not imagine being pregnant on top of that. I also have tons of health problems and was taking a lot of medication that would not be healthy for a baby. I hope after I learn the correct way to eat and exercise and enjoy my new body for a while, I can have a baby at a lower weight and loose it through a healthy lifestyle.

I think once our stomach stretch we will consume more food & will get fat again. Especially after having children.

That's not totally true. By losing the weight you will have much more success at having kids but I am going to have more kids and im not worried because ur tool will always work if u work it. U choose to stretch ur pouch. My surgen said that u should wait two years then have babies. I want 6 kids I have 4 now. So in 3-4 years I'll pop um out lol

      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.
