  1. Stomach can't handle the drink, how can it handle the jelly beans, it's still sugar.
  2. If u can't stomach that nasty drink they give u to test for gestational diabetes, they give u they jelly bean test. With that test u have to eat, I think 50 something jelly beans, which is crazy to me because if ur atomac
  3. I got also got so sick from drinking that nasty crap, they told me I would have to do the jelly beans, but I told my doc that doesn't make any sense, it'll make me sick as well. So they told me to eat what I regularly eat in the mornings, & thank God my test came back fine.
  4. Wow, I'm so sorry for your loss. I think you should go to your OB, to make sure everythings ok.
  5. I'm 12 weeks as well, I've lost weight in my first trimester. I was told that's normal, with the morning sickness. I see a high risk doctor & my doctor doesn't see anything wrong. Good Luck to you!!
  6. After I had my sleeve, I suffered from heartburn & I would get it once in awhile, but since being pregnant, girllll it's ten times worst. Since we can't eat too much with the sleeve try to eat little by little thru out the day. Even though I can't eat how I want, I'm happy with this pregnancy because I have no back pains, & it's better than my other 2 pregnancies
  7. I'm 7 months out & 8 wks pregnant, I had extremely bad heartburn. My high risk OB told me to take Prevacid & i have no more heartburn. I hope you feel better & Good Luck.
  8. I had my sleeve done june 4, I've lost a total of 100+ lbs & I'm 6 wks pregnant. I found out I'm pregnant new years eve (what a way to bring in the year), we're so extremely happy. My husband asks me how is the baby getting any nutrients if i can't hardly eat anything. Ladies, please give me some advice.
  9. So sorry for your loss, my condolences to you & your family. Yeah please take it easy. In 2009 I found out I was excepting after 3 yrs of trying & when I was about 9 wks my dad passed away. I was so hurt & depressed, & had to basically plan the funeral by myself, that I miscarried. Good Luck to you!
  10. Yes, after the first month you'll feel better. After my first month i felt somewhat back to normal. The sleeve takes some getting use to, make sure u follow ur surgeons instructions on what foods u can & can't eat. Good Luck to u!
  11. Thanks. I wish u all great success in your journey as well. @MinaT that's great you're exercising, I haven't started yet, I keep procrastinating about going to the gym.
  12. My starting weight was 340 lbs & as of today aug. 8th, I weigh 294.8. I haven't been under 300 in at least 9 yrs, & it feels so goooood. Besides having my kids this surgery is the best thing that has happened in my life. Having this surgery, took awhile to adjust, but I thank God for it. I feel like I got my life back.
  13. I've been sleeved since june 4th & so far I've lost 25lbs. I'm happy to be loosing weight, but at the same time I'm missing food. After 3 bites I'm done, I can't eat anymore & sometimes it makes me so mad, because the food tastes so good.
  14. I'm going through it now. I was sleeved june 4th & ever since I've started foods I've been constipated. This is such a miserable feeling, I'm taking colace as well & nothing yet.
  15. Aww, sorry to hear that, hope u feel better soon. Congrats on ur WL!!!!
  16. LOL!!! Heck yeah, I can't wait either
  17. To be honest with you, I drank fluids all day. I take my tall smart water bottle everywhere I go.
  18. My surgery was June 4th & I can't believe I lost 18lbs in one week
