Restriction while Pregnant
Prior to getting pregnant I had been very successful with sleeve.. Had lost almost 100lbs. In the beginning of my pregnancy, I felt the restriction prior to getting pregnant, but I noticed I was getting hungry a lot quicker. Now at 7 1/2 months pregnant I feel like there isn't much restriction at all. I don't know if its my body making sure I am getting the proper calories I need for the baby at this time or if I should contact my surgeon about an issue with my surgery. I think I read previously that people have had less restriction while pregnant, and once the pregnancy it goes back to how it was. Help.. kinda freaking out... I hate gaining the weight and now I'm nervous there could be something wrong

Restart
Hello I was sleeved in May of 2013... Lost 85 pounds the first 3.5 months .... Have been kinda stuck since October or so ... I don't know why I can't find the motivation to go to the gym even though I wants to lose another 90 pounds ... I have snacking and eating some stuff I don't shouldn't be... So I know why I haven't lost any weight. I'm wondering the best way to start over... Should I start the food stages over again? Yes I know the gym is a big part of it... But I'm interested in the best way to Deal with the food ... I feel hungry like I did pre surgery ... But obviously I eat a lot less when I do eat the junk.. Thank you for any help

Bathroom issue
Hi all.. I was sleeved may 6th.. It took me about a week after the surgery to go to the bathroom... And for a couple weeks it was everyday. But over the last month it's seems to be getting fewer and farther inbetween. My fluids were low.. I was getting about 40 hours when I was suppose to be getting. 64. Over the last week I have really made a conscious effort and got the 64 ounces down but nothing has happened with bathroom issue. After surgery I took miralax. And it took me the week to go. Should I keep waiting for the fluids to. Kick in or try milk of magnesia..or is it something I should be calling dr about Thanks

Weightloss for a new sleever
I was sleeved on the 6th. My discharge nurse and papers told me to weigh myself everyday. Since last Monday I've lost 12 pounds.. Which I am happy with!! today when I weighed myself I didn't lose any. Should I be concerned.... A couple of my friends told me not to worry about it .. But I just think with the sleeve I shouldn't of hit a day where I didn't lose any yet ! ??
