Ok so I'm only 3.5 months post op vsg, so I'm obviously not planning on getting pregnant any time soon. Just some concerns and questions on my mind. I still want 2 more children, and I was wondering about the weight gain during and after pregnancy. I reeeally don't want to lose all the excess weight only to gain some of it back or (God forbid) half/all of it. I'm so scared and feel like I should have waited to get sleeved until I had my children. But- reality kicks in and I realize my health would have made it impossible for me to have them and raise them with being almost 300 pounds and God knows how much more I would have gained! So my question is to you ladies who had pregnancies after vsg; did you gain alot and did you lose it afterwards or what happened exactly? Did you feel like the sleeve went to waste and there was no point? This is my worst fear; to realize that the opportunity to lose the weight quickly wasn't used to its full potential.

I was sleeved on the 14th of Aug Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

Hey August sleevers, my stats as of this morning is 51.8 lbs down with 1 week preop diet. 43.6 down since surgery. I started at 296.4 /day of surgery 286.4. Just wondering if anyone has similar stats and was sleeved around same time. I want to know if I am doing okay or not cuz I honestly feel I'm not losing fast enough.

Girl you are right on track. And you are doing better than me! My highest ever was 313 lbs. Starting weight was 296.4 beginning of preop, I'm now 244 lbs. I had the vsg on aug 14...so 3.5 months ago...only lost 48 lbs....compared to you who lost 40 lbs in only 2 months. Great job! And now I'M jealous haha Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

I don't think you are failing...but we just have to work on being more patient. What are your stats? Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

I feel the same way... I get so surprised when I see what their loss is compared to mine when in the same time frame. Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

What was your starting/current weight and how at all are you? Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

Okay I don't post much but I read ALOT. And something has been really really irritating me. After seeing this grammatical error more times then I can count I just can't take it anymore! ! I understand it's not that important to some people but honestly there's a huge difference between lose and loose. Lose means you lost something (weight etc.). Loose means that's something doesn't fit anymore( loose skin, loose clothing, etc). Thank you and that is all. [emoji51] Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

I completely agree. I accept your apology and respect that you said your opinion and didn't continue to bash me like the others, so thanks for that. I apologize if I offended you as well. I find I get myself into trouble with my humour as well...as you can see lol. This thread is rediculous [emoji23] Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

Lol thing is I don't mind being called out and even more so enjoy the fact that people think it's funny... you can't ruin my day people! I just reached my half way goal weight today! So I'm good. Loosing an argument is fun sometimes. It's just the being disrespectful part that is ehhh[emoji107] [emoji23][emoji23][emoji111] Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

Thanks for the clarification. I believe we have established that a few posts back though. Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

Ur driving me crazy really lol Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

Please do as you see fit. These women are twisting this post way out of proportion. I don't want to feed the fire. Yet I am bullied and called names such as bitchy judgemental troll etc. I have a right just as anyone on here to express what's on my mind and what bothers me. I called no one names and the post wasn't directed to anyone in particular. If the post rubbed people the wrong way, I can't help that they don't agree with my views. Again, delete this post or do whatever because I am being bullied for expressing my opinion. If noone agrees they can simply scroll on. It didn't have to go the way it has. And my comments after the fact are all responses to what they originally post. it's only natural that it gets nasty because I am human too! Thank you.

Completely agree. But I guess I'm different in that I mentioned it on a public board...so sue me lol... I meant no harm. Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

Another butt hurt educated person. At least you proved me right on one thing. No one on here has a disability they are just lazy. Thanks for that... it proves my point. Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

With all due respect, I really don't care what bothered you about my post. Your ego is so much bigger then you know to think that I am here to please you or that I should work to not bother you. So keep your opinions to yourself. And your condescending tone of "too late" just shows how highly you think of yourself that I was "too late" in explaining myself to you. You my lady have a superiority complex and I for one will not feed into that. Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

I am in shock at how pissed off everyone is. I swear I meant it in good fun...but it just made people maaad. Thanks anyway. At least there are some people who get my humour and intent. Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

Lol never said anyone was an idiot and never attacked anyone personally. Please go back to the original post and read it again. I was annoyed with the word loose used as lose and said they are different. Never made fun of anyone and didn't attack anyone. Also using loose instead of lose is NOT an innocent typo...you either know the difference or you don't. Just like I didn't know enough to use a lot instead. See? I learned something today too. I am NOT attacking anyone's learning capabilities...so stop making me sound like I'm evil. I'm not even close to that adjective. Excuse me for defending myself. Everyone can defend themselves without being a d**k to others. Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

In reply to all who had a problem with my post... honestly I'm a good sport and I assumed you guys would get the jokes that I put out. I had an error in my grammar (alot/a lot)... and literally laughed out loud cuz I thought it was funny...apparently you guys are taking it waaaaaay too personal for my taste so I'm just going to leave this here. Attacking my profession and assuming I'm DANGEROUS is the most ludicrous thing I've ever heard. You guys made a mountain out of a molehill. Everyone is in consensus that I shouldn't have pointed it out... welllll that's just me and really can't keep things like that bottled up especially if it bothers me. So I posted it and everyone thinks I'm a danger to society lmao. I must have angered all the people who you loose in their daily language...excuse me for making you soooo butt hurt that you are SEETHING...holy shi! Also symantics semantics that was an innocent typo you are just looking for anything to make yourself the grammar queen...which I in no way want to become. Again be a good sport folks and my intention was truly getting people to know the difference. That's alllllll Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

Mmmm k Sent from my SM-N910C using BariatricPal mobile app

It's pretty much the same you don't have to teach me symantics. You saying my behaviour is bitchy and judgemental implies that I am a b***h and judgemental. And again how ever many posts I have on this forum means NOTHING. You are just looking for an argument. Why do you care how many posts I have or likes wtf?? Is this forum an exclusive group that I have to have a certain amount of likes to be a part of or to contribute?? Go find a hobby please and get off my thread. You are such a troll...which is unlike you. I see your posts and they are usually lighthearted and funny I assumed you would be the same on mine. Apparently not. Please GO AWAY.
