  2. hi so its been awhile since ive posted,im 13weeks prego,ive lost 6lbs due to morning sickness... other mommys have put on 3,6 or even 8lbs but i keep in mind tht im sleeved nd dont eat as much as they do... my question is how much weight did you sleeved mommys gain during pregnancy?.. i snack often nd keep hydrated...i wrk a 12hr shift but sleep most of the day on my days off... im not on a diet but do make healthy choice at time... also nxt week would be a year post op frm surgery..so i got prego around 9mnths out..
  3. Hello HW 303 SW 286 CW 164 Before surgery i only had one period a year,and tht one period was only because my obgyn prescribe me provera i also had hypothyroid..I was sleeved sept 2012,on jan 2013 i got my period naturally,i missed feb nd march but got it in april and the end of may,well i was hoping tht id get my period for june nd nothing i was 3days late according to my period app to took ept test nd got a positive,i bought clear blue digital test nd still got a positive,i still couldnt believe it,so lastnight(nd i kno this is wrong) i went to the ER nd told them i had severe abdominal pains(i lied) nd they asked if their was a chance i could be prego nd i said yes,well i took test nd 2 sonos nd yup im pregnant 4 weeks they couldnt see a heart beat but they did see the sac nd yolk because its still to early to see the heart beat but my HCG levels are good...i say your weight has alot to do with infertility in 10mnths post op i lost 122lbs thts not counting what i lost on my own @ 303... Yes u should wait a year before TTC but my clock is ticking nd im not getting any younger...Now i hope for a beautiful healthy baby... Good luck oh nd to my thyroid i have no idea what happen but i no longer have hypothyroid,ive went to an endo for 6months nd nada(nothing in english)..i was jus a bought to start infertility treaments with june's period but my follicle came through nd now i jus hope for the best..

  11. Was your thyroid really high? Did you take any meds?
  12. Hi ladies,just wanted to ask if you girls have kids? I have or had hypothyroid and was given synthroid100mcg nd only took it a few times in may,i just got tested the beginning of this month nd my thyroid came out good 3.0....But i read hypothyroid causes infertility,I dont have kids yet but just a bit worried if I dont because of thyroid,thts how come i asked if you girls have kids ...
  13. Question!! So i went for a pap smear last month and did blood work,I asked my obgyn tht i think i might have PCOS and she said were you told you had PCOS and I said no but its been 10mnths without a period she said Im sure its ur weight,so i told her about me getting sleeved on sept 14th she said tht was good..and my results are good even my thyroid,i had hypothyroid but only took the pills(synthyroid) when it was first prescribed to me which was somewhere in may,Thts not my question,my question is how you guys were diagnosed with PCOS,how did yall find out?What are the signs?
  14. I used to wrk 6pm to 6am nd omg time seemed to go by so slow!!!i hated it sometymes just wanted to walk out nd quit..so i switched to day shift nd i can go awhole 12hrs without eating...its easier for me..my surgery date is sept 14,how long will u be out of work for recovery?
  15. Well sleeve not pouch*** or smallest stomach...
  16. I was told to start the 31st too...but i think i may start sooner,ive already bought my jars of protien and placed a case of waters and crystal lights in my car,locker at work,and home....I still need a few more things things lyke broth,fat free jello and juices...Good luck ladies wish y'all the best!!! Oh i asked a nurse if i could request the smallest pouch and she said yes,so before being put down im gonna ask to speak with my surgeon to ask him for the smallest pouch...!!

  20. Actually Dr.Scott stowers was my surgeon,I did my 5 doc/nut visit with him,until i found out myself tht i needed a bmi of 50 to get the sleeve(highmark bcbs) and the ins coord didnt even bother to fight for my approval,the nurses are nice,my contact person with Dr.Stowers was michael..after the ins coord telling me my only option is the lapband,i googled for a sleeve surgeon in the DFW and found DR.Jayaseelan So on the same day I called Dr.Jayaseelan's office I scheduled an app with him, ..Well im glad to say tht the ins coord Liz got me approved and she personally got the surgeon to write me a letter for my approval...Im sure you want a surgeon tht gives shyt,so i would say go with Dr.Jayaseelan..Call to schedule a consultation its free!!! http://www.dallasbariatriccenter.com/
