SV SV SV! Pre-Pregnancy Weight!



Recommended Posts

At my highest weight, I was about 35 lbs up from my pre-pregnancy weight. While pregnant, I gained 45 lbs, and was only able to lose 10 lbs (8 of it was the baby).

Today I stepped on the scale, only 2.5 weeks out of surgery, and saw my (highest) pre-pregnancy weight! Another 10-20 lbs and I'll be in my "normal" pre-pregnancy weight range. This is amazing! I tried and tried to lose on my own, and never even got close. I thought I'd never see that number again.

I am just beyond thrilled and had to crow about it! Wheeeeeeeee!

That's awesome! I know how you feel. I'm 7 weeks post op and I'm 13 lbs BELOW my pre pregnancy weight 11.5 years ago. Had 3 kids. Gained a lot after my 3rd. Congrats!

I gained 65 pounds during my first (and only because of extreme complications) pregnancy and had a 4 1/2 pound baby. And he was born two months early. If I didn't gain so much weight he would have been smaller and may not have made it.

That was 10 years ago. My goal weight (150) is my pre-pregnancy weight. I've got a long way to go. It is doable, I just have to be patient. I do fit into clothes from three years ago, so I guess that's something to be happy about.

      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.
