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

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
