Twins and still losing wieght!! Triple Bonus!! :D

I know lol It makes me a little nervous at times because I'm not sure if they're getting enough of what they need to grow. I am eating and snacking every few hours if I wait like before and only have three meals a day I get nauseous lol

Congrats! Lots of Protein will help them, and plenty of good carbs. If you aren't the type to panic or scare easily, Dr. Barbara Luke's book about multiples is a good read. But if you'll feel guilt or worry about not eating enough don't read the book because I've heard some women say it scared them.

I have boy/girl twins that are five and while there have been hurdles here and there it's been a wonderful, awesome, fun experience. You know your body best, so pay attention to what you need (food, rest, whatever) and you'll do just fine!

Okay, so a few years ago I posted my before/after photos and got a ton of ladies talking about how they also had twins. Now, as far as twins conceived post sleeve? I really couldn't say but not one case comes to mind.

So there are several of us who have twins of varying ages here on the boards but I'm pretty sure Amytequilahouse is the first one I've seen to conceive them post op.

And oh yeah, they'll keep you busy for a while. I firmly believe in the flip-flop theory my other mom friends and I share. Either you have difficult babies or toddlers, but most folks are lucky enough that they don't wind up with both. My twins? Easiest babies ever. Seriously - the single I have right now is more demanding and challenging than the two of them were.

But OH the toddler years...I could tell some stories about the mischief, mayhem and destruction my duo caused in the three minutes it took me to use the restroom, or the five minutes I took to go switch laundry downstairs. Oh yeah...they were something else! I lost a bunch of weight chasing them, though. :)

      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! 😞
