Shrinkin' Violets- Part 2 Read Here



Recommended Posts

Thanks Shalee!

Movies do that too, but I thought I would just be ecstatic and bouncing off the walls and farting rainbows! But I'm really the opposite, like Oh no what did I do, I can't change my mind now, etc.

The gyno called, they are calling me in an Rx for prenatal Vitamins, the nurse had a funny accent and was telling me what's in it and she said "And it make you baby smart!".. made me laugh.. then I asked if they had chewable, she said "No.. and it very big!" so I reminded her of the band, and she said she's calling in patient's choice on chewable selection at my pharmacy.. not sure what that means but I'll find out. They don't see you till 7 weeks out, and they calculate off of the first day of my last period (July 17), so I go first week of September for an ultrasound.. based off my own calculations I think I'm 2 weeks out, I'm very confused with numbers. Mom said based on my calculations I wouldn't be able to pick it up on a test yet, but I thought it could. I dunno, guess they can tell me how old it is when I go in?? They also said they will call me in anti-nausea meds for when morning sickness hits..

My family has a history of no morning sickness, so I'm hoping I don't either.

Oh and even though she's my normal gyno, they won't let me even schedule an appointment with her until they clear it with my insurance. My insurance pays it, so I don't know why they couldn't just look.. waiting for them to call me back so I can give them the info, then they call me back and let me know, THEN I schedule it.

Laura-yes the test CAN pick up a positive this soon. I found out WAY early with Macy.

If memory serves me correctly you count 40 weeks from the first day you started your last period.

Hah Hah, yesterday I decided it would be May!

But then mom tells me it's 40 weeks, all this time I thought it was 36 weeks, and between mom and websites and the doctor, I have no idea how to calculate it anymore. I think it's a Jamaica baby- Aug 2-6 conception. So if that's right, I wouldn't count 40 weeks from Mid July would I?

Aww thanks Tracy! Whoever sent the texts, thanks! I lost all the V's numbers when I got the new phone, and haven't put them in yet. That's why when you called Haydee I was hesitant, I couldn't figure out who it was.. when you asked what I was doing I recognized your voice though!

Not at all, that's why I posted it here!

I'm not even announcing it in the banded & pregnant area till at least another month. We told my parents (my mom squealed and cried a little).. they BOTH said "No more tunica!" & my granny (who keeps sayin she wants me to have one before she dies!) and she said "I think I can stick around 9 more months" lol.. haven't told his parents, I figured he can decide when to tell them.

        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
