I'm 9 months post op and 6 months pregnant!



Recommended Posts

What in the world did i get myself into?! I found out i was pregnant 5months after my surgery. I wasnt too happy about it. I was just starting to enjoy my life again and then BOOM! I can honestly say I tried everything to avoid this happening. In November and December me and my husband we're going at it like rabbits. I was warned that this would happen. But I was having too much fun.

The good thing was at continue to lose weight all the way until about 2 weeks ago. Then within a week I gained 6 pounds. I was flabbergasted. So I started that on my Fitness Pal to watch what I was eating. I lost 5 pounds in a week. I have not done any major exercising 6th February. I am constantly exhausted. And now my blood sugar is a concern again for my doctors. They want me to concentrate on keeping my blood sugar levels rather then concentrate on losing weight. I'm frustrated and annoyed. But my baby is fine a growing very well. As the god that I only have 3 more months to go. Because I'm ready to move on and am reach my goal weight. I am now 251 and my goal weight is 200. If I wasn't pregnant I would have been in 200 a long time ago.

I'm still maintaining and still feel good about myself here's a pic from last Saturday.

Oh my! I am also 9 months out...but thank God NOT pregnant! I was "fixed" about a year before my WLS....so no worries there.

Whew, I can NOT imagine being pregnant after going through surgery.

I am sure this will be a fantastic blessing for you and your family! Best of luck to you!! May you and your baby be healthy !

      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? 🤷‍♀️
