May Surgery Dates???



Recommended Posts

My surgery date was scheduled for the 23rd but now it has been postponed because I found out yesterday morning while I was about to be put to sleep and I still had the IV stucked to my arm that I was pregnant. The nurse rushed in and told me I'm pregnant. So it will be postponed until after baby is born. Big shock and surprise to me.

Oh wow. Congrats but wow.

And to think it irritated me when they made me take a pregnancy test twice (hadn't missed and was on point) guess there truly is reasons they make you do all sorts of things.

Good luck on the new baby an the banding after

oh wow!!!! congratulations for the baby! I had the EGD in the same place than you, I imagine the nurse running with the results! anynways, babies are always a blessing and the best wishes for you and the baby!

Thanks girly! Yes I had the IV in my arm and was about to be put to sleep and I asked the nurse who gave me the IV was everything okay with my urine test because I seen her handing it over to a nurse. The nurse came back and said ummm your pregnancy test came back positive but it's a little light do you want to take another test just to make sure? I said yes so here I am trying to pee in a cup with an IV still in my arm. lol! Second test came back positive and I asked if they can share the news to my husband who was waiting with my 2 girls (age 3 & 7) in the family waiting room. We were all in shock. I also went to my OB/GYN that same day and did a blood test and they called me this morning and confirmed I was pregnant. It's exciting and Cari called me from True Results to crongratulate me yesterday. Thought that was very nice of her. Who knows I might lose a lot of weight chasing 3 kids around and working full time I might not need the lap band but I know that I can always have it done after the baby comes. Thank you everyone!

Yes God works in funny ways sometimes. But I do believe he had this planned for me.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
