Let me know your symptoms



Recommended Posts

I'm 7 mos post op Gastric Sleeved on June 4,2012. My periods became normal once I dropped 50 lbs. I'm now down 132 lbs. I've been having weird small cramps everyday since my last period "sexually active with my live in boufriend". I'm supposed to get my period today which has not showed up. My question is what kind of symptoms and when did they start for my fellow sleeve sisters. I'm 30 and haven't been able to get pg. but now I feel different. Do y'all think it might finally happen? Should I test or wait? Give me y'all's feedback :) love y'all !!

I'm in disbelief lol I took another one this morning n it's positive. I got married when I was 20 because I wanted to have kids young but was never able to conceive. My marriage ended he remarried and had kids and I forever blamed myself. I'm 31 now and honestly thought it would never happen. I've waited soooo long for this I'm going to enjoy it soooo much :))

Amy, first of all congrats! I'm happy for you! Do you think it's because of your weight loss? I know sometimes people have to lose weight in order to be able to conceive. Just curious if you think that may have been the difference this time. Congratulations:)

I couldn't ever get pregnant. I am 16 weeks at 36 years old. I got pregnant once my body went into the maintenance phase. 3 months of being 163.5 and bam!!! I was pregnant! I believe that my body was finally in a harmonious state. I never fluctuated. Week after week I was 163.5. Now I am 174!!! I am hungry!!! But that is ok! I will lose it!

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

        I had about 6 months between deciding to do surgery and getting scheduled. I came across the book The Pound of Cure by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon in Arizona, and started to implement some of the changes he recommended (and lost 13 lbs in the process without ever feeling deprived). The book is very simple, and the focus is on whole, plant based foods, but within reason. It's not an all or nothing approach, or going vegan or something, but focuses on improvement and aiming for getting it right 80-90% of the time. His suggestions are divided into 12 sections that you can tackle over time, perhaps one per month for a year if a person is just trying to improve nutrition and build good habits. They range from things like cutting out artificial sweetener or eating more beans to eating a pound of vegetables per day. I found it really effective pre-surgery and it's an eating style I will be working to get back to as I am further out from surgery and have more capacity. Small changes you can sustain will do the most for building good habits for life.

        That sounds awesome. I'll have to check that out thanks!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
