Thank you. How far out were you?

Anything other than Zofran? That doesn't seem to work for me. I'm making turkey tacos tonight. I have the worst craving ever and I figure it's healthier than Taco Bell. Are you still on the Vitamins the surgeon recommended or are you taking prenatals?

Keeping my fingers crossed for healthy babies! What are you eating? I'm having bad morning sickness (well all day sickness) and some days can hardly keep anything down.

I have no clue what it is. I call it the blob. Lol this week I'll be 9 weeks and today makes 10 weeks postop. I like girls but I prefer boys...idk why. I'm not a girly female so that may be the reason why

Thank you!

Ugh. I'm thankful to be having a baby but wished I would have known that.

For some reason he prefers to do RNYs openly. I was shocked because I thought it was going to be laparascopic. I was highly upset when I found out.

I had open surgery and recovery is longer and painful. The scar tissue really hurts and is still tender to the touch 9 weeks later. I also broke a stitch about 10 days in and leaked fluid. That was very scary.

Yes. It's kinda frustrating cuz it seems as if we still have to be obsessed with eating all the time. Every 2-3 hours, my stomach starts cramping and hurting until I either eat or drink.

Was 338 the day of surgery. Now I'm 289

I was on Yaz and still got pregnant. Do you know why he recommends to crush it? Better absorption?

You might wanna check with your doc to be on the safe side. But the other day I had a strawberry slushie and it was red when I went to the bathroom from the dye in the drink.

Ha! I thought it just was me. I hiccup once and my nose runs!

Ooh yes! I had open surgery but giving birth naturally was a walk in the park compared to RNY postop pain. I would rather have 10 more babies than to ever feel that pain again.

You guys were lucky. The stuff from the pharmacy I can handle. I had a script and it came in a gallon container with powder in it and had 3 flavor additives glued to the side (orange, lemon and fruit punch) I cringe now just thinking of it.

Ugh mine tasted like orange ass water. It was the most disgusting thing in the world and I only drank 1/2 of it. Surgeon was ok with that.

I also use Striiv. It's a walking app/step counter and you can connect it to my fitness pal so it subtracts the calories you've burned.

I found my dog shivering in the rain in the park last September. He's now my best friend and walking partner! I lost 30lbs preop thanks to him and now that I'm pregnant he won't leave my side. I love him to pieces. His name is Avon and he's a 6 yr old Maltese mix

Cool. I'm in Newark, NJ

Yeah. I have to take ambien.

My bariatric pantry's cream of chicken protein soup. It's pretty good

It should be better with milk.
