Well after 9 months of weight loss and down 60lbs I was really struggling to lose more weight. I changed exercising routine using Orangetheory 2-3x a week to increase intensity. After seeing my physician at 11 months out I was about to start Trulicity to hopefully jumpstart my weight loss since exercise was not working. This all came to a halt when I thought well I have not had my menstrual cycle in months. Let’s just be sure and since I had a an extra pregnancy test in cabinet I took it. Let me say my cycle has always been irregular and I’ve had an IUD in place the last 2 years. So really thought I was humoring myself my taking the test. I am 38 and had no plans to add to my already family of 5. Well test was positive and turns out I’m almost 5 months pregnant. Not sure if it’s just that I’m the 1% that IUD failed or that weight loss some how contributed to my IUD misplacement.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        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.

      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!
