and we are 17 weeks pregnant. Has anyone else been in this situation and continued to lose weight the entire pregnancy? Since finding out I was pregnant in December I have lost about 20lbs although I continuously eat to try to accommodate for the extra calories that I know I need to get in. I'm hoping as baby grows the weight loss will stop and I will stay at a steady weight. Just looking for advice from others who have been in the same situation! Thanks in advance.

we are 17 weeks pregnant.

there is a thread on the board called Pregnancy with gastric sleeve

i'm sure there is a lot of good info that will help you

sounds like your new bundle was a little bit of a surprise

but i can tell are looking forward to having a cutie

you've lost 78 lbs!!!!

terrific!!!!

you "maybe/probably" won't/shouldn't lose weight through these next months of being preggo

you'll be eating, giving your "newbie" good nurishment

try not to gain too much - but some weight gain i think is inevidable

good luck

kathy

congrats

I'm only 3 months out ( and not pregnant) but I wanted to say congratulations!

Babies are a blessing.

Congrats!!!!! I'm actually in the same position as you!!! Only I'm 5 months post up and 16 weeks pregnant! Total "oops" moment but extremely happy to be having baby #3! I have lost 39 pounds since being pregnant and have yet to gain anything. I'm sticking to my 1,400 calorie a day diet and trying to stay up on all of my protein. Also adding in 100 grams of carbs. Weightloss has slowed down to about a pound every 2 weeks or so. My OBGYN is happy with everything so far. Like you said, I feel like I eat all day long!!! How are you feeling?

I can't relate unfortunately but I can say that my friend who was unable to get pregnant, finally did after 4 months with the sleeve, she's since then had 2 babies and both pregnancies were normal and healthy but she lost weight the entire time and was so worried that what she was doing was harming the baby.

You will still lose weight but eat up....baby will be fine! Congrats...please sprinkle your baby dust over me...lol

I'm 16 months out and 14 weeks pregnant I was at goal and haven't gained any weight just yet and I have been eating about 2k calories a day by OB wants me to gain 15 lbs and isn't too concerned about me not getting in enough food lol congrats Momma you'll be just fine

I stopped losing once I hit mid 2nd trimester and have stayed steady since then l. I got pregnant 3 weeks post op...

Ok, so 21 years ago I was pregnant with my first, I was so sick from morning sickness (24 hr sickness!), I couldn't keep anything down, I puked multiple times a day because I kept trying to eat for the baby. I was not a skinny woman back then either! I lost weight for the first 6 months of my pregnancy, I was growing a tummy but losing weight! The Doctor and the nurses gave me a standing ovation when I finally gained a pound at my 7 month appointment! I was beside myself with worry the whole 6 months, but my Doctor said not too worry, that the baby and your body work it out so the baby is nourished. He was more worried about the effect on my body than he was about the baby! I ended up with a beautiful baby girl and less than 20lbs gained.

My point is, the baby will take what it needs and that beautiful baby girl? She is in college, working part time and smart as a whip!

Congratulations on your pregnancy!
