  1. Thank u! As of today I am down 55lb
  2. Ok so the bloat is on!!! I've lost 2 more lbs just overnight. I work up kid u not weighing less but bigger! At least it feels that way to me. Will attach some pics and y'all can decide. Anyways..I feel better and am keeping food down. Severe back pain tonight but I may have killed myself today at the gym. I'm actually thinking I'm further preggo that I thought. My periods are always whacky and while I did have one in July it wasn't what it usually is. Just a thought. Ok so y'all tell me if I'm just crazy( I mean crazier than usual) or u can tell this awesome..bloat?? Idk what the heck it is. Last week after I knew I was preggo Today
  3. So..relocating to Colorado in 3months. Extremely stressed with an across country move & preggo. Still struggling with intake from morning sickness and the added stress makes me want to eat even less. I feel truly over my head! On a positive note..I've now made 7 weeks. I feel better this pregnancy is gonna be ok. Praying we are able to sell our house in this timeframe. Praying I start to tolerate more food.
  4. I'm able to take my prenatals whole . They are huge but capsule form. Haven't had any feel like they were caught and...I'm 7 weeks preg tomm if nothing terrible happens I chewed up until now. I'd swallowed pills tho since maybe 3 weeks post op not prob.
  5. Your story is alot like me. I have 1 son who is 10. He was a scary problematic preggo. Had him the day I turned 31 weeks. This is my 5th preg. I've had 3 miscarriages the last being 3 years ago aug 2010 shortly after marrying my husband. It's been 3 years no bc no prevention and even clomid..nothing!! Had surg apr 30th. Have pcos and still not really regular. One slip up with unprotected since that time and bam.. Preggo! Don't give up! I'd preferred to have waited longer. It isn't totally easy right now and I'm struggling but I'm proud I was given another chance. I'd have loved to have waited til next year but apparently something diff was in my cards. Now it's a fight daily to keep hydrated and I've had to just realize my Protein goals may not happen alot anymore. My weight goals either for that matter. Don't give up. I call this my Murphy's law baby! I had started to get really really fit, start my pursuit for a higher career, putting myself up towards the top..starting college again and all basically needs to be rescheduled. There is always hope. Pray u get your sweet little one. Have u saw a hematologist? Turns out I have a clotting mutation so Lovenox injections daily to try to prevent a loss now. My body was clotting my placentas off causing me to lose 3 pregnancies and have one early. Good luck and god bless!
  6. Give it time. The 1st few days I felt like that. Once everything started clearing out & I was pooping I felt so much better. Maybe take every other day if its too much. I now am taking every other day but I've been pretty religious for awhile now about them. Hope that helps
  7. Makes me sad u feel so bad. I hope the time flies and u can hurry and see the doc. Pain sucks!!! Try a warm bath. Feel better friend!
  8. idk maybe is a girl. Would be cute to have a girl finally! Thank u for your kind words
  9. Praying u are right! It's been 11years almost since I went thru this with my last one. I don't remember it being like this
  10. Thanks Krystal! As much as I'm scared about gaining I kinda do want the cute bump!
  11. Thank u! I'm trying to adjust. I really am having a harder time than I could have imagined. I hope as with everything..this too shall pass and soon I will be feeling better. Getting super excited as it seems more of reality it's just making all the pieces fit together in place smoothly that's the challenge.
  12. Here is my little collage on life changing through weight! Hope I can keep it off with all the craziness ahead...
  13. I kinda feel like a hypocrite and kinda like I don't belong as much now. My path has branched off so drastically. No weight change in over a week or more now. I'm still technically obese at 160lbs so I get upset I may never get to goal even after this baby. God has his plans and reasons and as happy and just in awe of this baby i am..I can't help but kinda wish it could have waited a few more months! One oops! I can't wait to see this baby on my us appt but I can scarcely believe this has happened. I'm not sure where I go now. I'm down 53lb since surg. Felt stronger and better than I have in probably almost all of my entire adult life..and now..I'm struggling to keep fluids and foods down even with Zofran. I keep trying to make the gym work and it does help in the mornings.. It's the evenings I seem to get the most unwell. I want to eat anything and nothing! Pregnancy cravings but can't indulge in them. Life sure has taken a weird turn for me. I just wish I felt as human as I felt a few Weeks ago. Thanks for letting me vent..I know this all is my fault..just still kinda hard.
  14. Yep! Rny apparently cured my PCOS. Years of nothing and after feeling the best I've felt in years..pcos is apparently gone and I'm preggo. Happy!
  15. Thanks Dori. So excited to tell my family
  16. Did my announcement pics today. Not officially putting it out to everyone until a few more weeks pass but this weekend gonna give the pics to my family in cards as a way of telling my immediate family like dad and siblings. Thought I would share!
