huligoo

I am type 2 right now as well I am post op almost 8 months now.. My weight has stalled big time... Im not keeping up with my Water intake... Exercise is only walking.i dont think this is enough for me..UGH My Protein is about 60 grams a day..Im supposed to have 90 grams... Pre op I was on Metformin 2000 mgs a day; NPH 1o units in pm and 5 units pm; Glipizide 20mg (10mg am and 10mg pm) I am now ONLY on metformin! Yayyyy! I do take thyroid meds for low thyroid...LOW metabolism... My weight loss has been slow as well Im 39 years old been type 2 since i was 22 years old...

I am sleeved now--post op 6 months.... I am a stress eater..Im an anxious person...I eat when Im pissed, angry, happy or sad...I am an emotional eater... now that I am sleeved I cannot over eat or I get sick...getting sleeved has been good for me... Pre-sleeve I would never get full EVER....i hated that feeling...i felt helpless and guilty that I wanted food so much... now that all the ghrelin is mostly gone from my body...it has been a big help to me... http://www.webmd.com/diet/news/20100622/hormone-ghrelin-ups-desire-for-high-calorie-foods

Ive never seen the U by kotex..I better get some of these..Im pcos-er too...

Im 5 month post op on only Metformin 2x a day versus metformin, NPH and actos for my sugar levels...my levels are so much better...now How are you doing with your carb intake...are you doing zero carb or sticking to a particular number of carbs per day? I try to get 100 grams of Protein a day and 100 carbs a day...its a challenge... What is working for you right now...

My dr said for me to get to 200 lbs by 12months post op...so that I can be at a healthier weight...Im not using birth control.. so if it happens sooner..Im okay with it...I will 39 in several months...so I dont have time on my side...Ive been struggling with infertility for more than 10 years,,,I have never been pregnant in my life...so I am anxious to concieve one day soon! Sending you all baby dust!

Thats why i had the sleeve surgery to have a baby...Im four months post op right now... Dr mentioned for me to "wait' till 12 months to NOT mess up my weightloss...but pregnancies happen very easily post op due to the rapid weightloss and crazy hormones... Just keep on top of your Vitamins and minerals just in case your birthcontrol doesnt protect like it should... Im not on BC pills...we use condoms---BORING...Im 38 years old I cannot wait much long...ya feel me LOL me and hubby have NO kids and want kids so badly...

you can also do a scalp treatment with coconul oil I have dry scalp/flaky skin right now too post op--its annoying

Drs can be real jerks sometimes...get a second opinion...it's a natural right to have/want children! Get what you want/desire in your life! Screw the naysayers!! Fight onward!

post op have not tried any pills.. What avout Vitex or Fertiliaid??

Congrats ladies! This is the main reason I had the surgery! I want a baby! No kids at all ...yet! Wishing you the best!

My scalp is showing and my hiar is baby fine now...Im a lil over 90 days post op and my hair has been falling/thinning out for about 8 weeks now... I take my vitamins--biotin, mulivitamin, b12, fish oil vit D, Calcium cheww---Im scared to wash my hair because my hair brush gets so full of hair... I am eating my Protein a minimum of 60 grams a day to upwards of 100 grams a day... I had bloodwork done last week ===the dr did check all my Vitamin levels, including my protein levels--all my numbers are in the normal range.. I eat about 900 a day...since my hair started for fall out Dr. up my cals for minimum 1200 calories a day What did you do when your hair stared to fall/thin out? Should I get a weave or plug-in onto my scalp? I have no idea where to go..

I am tall

i can eat a size 6 oz yogurt or two chicken tenderloins it all depends on the density of food slider foods like popcorn and chips I don't get full..so I try to measure out at portion if i want some

Hello there...Im 3 months post op..and been dying to get preggo lol thats the main reason I had the surgery! lol How are you doing?

Im 38 and been sleeved for 3 months...I really hate condoms and wan to be spontaneous and not worry about condoms...any advice?

Im so sorry hun.. sending you hugs

wow This is great news! Ive been trying to get pregnant for over 8 years now and no luck! I even did clomid treatments and nothing happen! Ive been sleeved for a lil over two months! The doctor wants me to get on birth control now. One of the reasons I got sleeved was to be able to get pregnant. Im 38 years old and my hubby is 42...we are so ready for a new baby! Did you do OPK testing to check to see if you were ovulating? Now that Im post op my ovulation signs are so strong and obvious! Im probably fertile but were using condoms! BORING ahahaa! Wishing you a happy and healthy pregnancy! Keep us posted! Hey how are you feeling?

Do you mind me asking how long she was a diabetic BEFOre surgery? Im 38 years old an been a type 2 diabetic since I was 22 years old

---Now that you are post op and sleeved; how is your sugar readings and meals and meds working out?--- I am a lil over two months post op right now..and my sugars are still fluctuating alot... If I have a large gap between meals my sugars skyrocket to 190...some mornings I wake up to a glucose of 160 My meals during the work week are very spaced out 7am breakfast 1230 lunch 6pm dinner My sugar around 330p is usually around 145 I am only taking metfromin 500 mg twice a day;right now; My meds have been physician reduced...from metformin 1000 mg 2 times a day; insulin NPH 15 units a day;Actos 5mg 2 times a day Im scared to exercise strenously ; Im afraid my sugar will drop too low and maybe even pass out... The dr at my 6 week check up said I could do strenous exercise...but I am really afraid of it... ps. my dr said that no matter what my diabetes is gonna go away---I guess the more weight I lose it should..but still ---diabetes remission is not guaranteed Thoughts/feedback?
