Hey everyone, I'm 20 years old, 5"7 and currently weigh 165 from 222 on surgery day! I'm not planning to have children in the near future, but I know I want to eventually. I am not at my goal weight yet either, but I can tell I am going to need some reconstructive surgeries after I reach that point. Has anyone had any experience with having reconstructive surgeries (mainly breast augmentation, lift, tummy tuck or torso lipo) and then getting pregnant afterwards? Were the surgeries worth it prior or is that something someone should hold off on if they are planning on having kids. Anyone have any advice?!

Thank you! I thought about a cat scan or scope too just to be sure, but ill give this a try first

I was sleeved 13/12/12 and I've lost only about 40-45 lbs so far. I am jumping around from 175-180 for the last month and a half now. Has anyone been in the same range for such a long time?! I also have been having quick, sharp pains in my left abdomen and ribs the last few days. Has anyone else experienced that??

Has anyone GAINED weight during their stall :S ?!

It's really frustrating! I know we will keep losing...eventually lol. Hopefully the stall only lasts a week have you been exercising at all?

It's kind of bittersweet having the drain lol. Mine was hardly collecting anything, but there were a few small blood clots in it. My mom is a nurse so she had these injectable blood thinner solutions (not positive what it was called) and injected them into our abdomens once a day. Mine still did not collect much. However, hers was full often! I think it's better to have the Fluid come out instead of staying there and swelling....but maybe she wouldn't have produced so much if it wasn't draining?!

Sleeved on 12/13/12 pre op 220 Surgery day 208 Current 192.3 I have been tracking calories on myfitnesspal, and I was around 350-400 a day, but I was feeling drained all the time. Upped my cal intake to 600-800 per day, I feel a lot better but the weight loss has decreased and stalled :/

I too was an ice cream fanatic, I could eat it everyday! Since I've been sleeved (13/12/12), I still have the craving for it but now I'm satisfied after a couple spoonfuls instead of a couple bowlfuls! And I have frozen yogurt or ice milk instead of ice cream

Thanks for the great wishes everyone I'm doing great! Already down 28 lbs from pre op diet, and 16 from surgery day. All my clothes are loose now! The recovery went well except for the drain...my drain was hardly collecting any liquid and it was VERY uncomfortable. I had horrible abdomen pain the days following surgery and had to call the doctor to take the drain out early. However, as soon as he took the drain out I felt great!

Thanks for all the kind words everyone I just drank my blue leak dye about an hour ago. So far none in my drain, yay!! Ps: sorry for the title, should be surgery not syrgery lol...And for any other spelling mistakes. It was 4 am that I wrote this

Thanks! You def made a good decision with Lopez so far so good!
