Idk. A little confused. Nutritionist says I need to be at 2100 cal a day to maintain a pregnancy. I think she's wrong and maybe the number should be 1200.

Anyway I had 1/2 honey turkey sandwich and diced peaches.

1200 doesn't really seem high enough....2100-2500 is about average for a normal/non-RNY Patient to have a healthy weight gain during pregnancy. I would imagine you're AT LEAST 1500-1800 and will still lose weight, but if the pros say 2100.....I don't think I'd focus so much on quantity as quality though.....make sure you're getting your Protein and dairy and fresh fruits and veggies....yup, sounds like you're going to be eating all day long!!!!

A second opinion might not be a bad idea. I know you don't want to go too high and jeopardize the weight loss, but right now you have to make sure the little one is well fed :) there will be plenty of time after he/she is born to lose more weight.

I agree but most women over eat when pregnant we don't need that much more calories

Ugh tho, your surgery wasn't that long ago. How can you possibly get that many calories in?! Maybe...I don't know.

Shoulda, did you do exercise over the 9 months? What do you think was the biggest help to you? What a successful weight loss story!

I was told only 200-300 extra calories a day. That's it, my doctor compared the extra calories needed as the equivalent of a snickers bar.

        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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
