I got pregnant 3 months after revision from band to sleeve....we had been trying for several years and my doctor told me that I probably wouldn't be able to get pregnant until I lost about 100lbs. We had stopped trying I was focusing on weight loss......Anyway long story short I am having issues with low blood sugar. I have a few questions and concerns.

1. What have you all done to prevent this? I am eating about every 3 hours. Maybe I need to go to every 2?

2. I am supposed to do that sugar test next week but I honestly don't think I can go from midnight until 8am with nothing to eat.......

3. What about during labor....do they give you fluids with sugar in it? UGH so worried.

Other than they low blood sugar I am feeling fine.....just nervous about all of the above. Thank you in advance.

You really need to see your NUT/RD; between the sleeve and pregnancy you have a delicate balance to work with.

Congratulations!

      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.
