Almost 3 Months Post-op and Surprise...



Recommended Posts

I'm so excited for all of us! What supplements are YAll on? I don't see my dr til november 9, but I'm just on regular gel pnv and some extra folic acid per my ob orders. I'm still losing weight. She said when she sees me she will get me to a mfm and nutritionist. She said to just try and graze healthy food. That I shouldn't worry about the weight loss cause it is to be expected and the baby will take what it needs from me.

I'm still losing as well. A pound or so a week but I'm under goal so I wanna see that stopping here shortly. I feel like I eat all day... But I'm making healthy choices and keeping portions small. I don't feel any give in restriction yet.

I'm on a chewable prenatal, D and a low dose Iron supplement. I'm struggling with very low blood pressure and low blood sugars as well. Hence my eating often.

I'm not nearly as nauseated as I was with my daughter, so that's a blessed relief! So far I'm still able to run my 5k a couple times a week and walk/toning exercise on off days.

I'm nearly 8wks and will be telling people soon! Can't wait!

We had a d&c 1.5 weeks after this post. We had 2 ultrasounds and were diagnosed with a blighted ovum or false pregnancy. The heartbreak was tremendous and it's thrown my body out of whack. I've struggled with getting back on track with my eating and weight loss too. Praying we get to try again for a healthy pregnancy soon!!

My heart broke reading this post. I'm so incredibly sorry you had to experience this. I can imagine it's been a roller coaster of emotions. Prayers for you and your family.

Congrats to all the prego ladies in here. I got pregnant 8 months post op with my first after 7 years of trying. I am currently 38 wks and extremely anxious to see my baby girl. For those of you ttc, do not obsess or stress yourself out. I literally made up my mind to adopt when I found out I was pregnant. So this was a welcome surprise. Belly rubs to all the expectant mothers and best of luck to those ttc.

So sorry for your loss! Prayers for healing!

I read this thread daily because it gives me hope Ladies! My husband and I have been TTC for 6 years. We even did some fertility treatments last year before I had VSG. It was the main reason for me deciding to have the surgery. We have just got the clearance to start trying since I am a year out (even though we stopped using protection 2 months ago) and are praying daily for our miracle. My obgyn prefers to see me lose more before I get pregnant but at a year out, I have lost 126lbs and feel great. I would like to lose another 50ish pounds but don't mind taking my time on that if it meant I was gaining due to being pregnant. So I just wanted to say thanks for giving me hope! We so badly want to have children! Congrats to all you ladies and again, condolences so those who have suffered a loss.

Congrats! I just found out Monday that I am pregnant, surgery date was 8/27. Nervous as all get out have done some emotional eating but getting myself back together. Obgyn is aware of surgery said he doesn't foresee any issues. Just emailed my nut to see what she suggest.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
