Post sleeve pregnancy



Recommended Posts

Hey all, i just passed the 2 year surgery mark on the 15th of march and my beautiful baby girl was born on the 5th of march.

I put on about 22lbs during my pregnancy and so far have lost only 4lbs. I need to get to 143lbs which leaves me with 33lbs to go as i hadnt hit my target weight before i got pregnant.

I have started excercising but i have noticed i cab eat a lot more than when i just got sleeved.

Can anyone help me get on track so i can hit target weight and also get back into pre pregnancy clothes. Its not fun not fitting into clothes especially as i had just got a new wardrobe before i fell pregnant as i was finally a notmal size. Something which i hadnt experienced since i was a child.

I don't know if pregnancy has a lot to do with the sleeve expanding because it did for me. I've been doing Portion Control and watching what I eat more carefully as well as adding 150 minutes of workouts per week, this has helped me get back on track. I hope this helps!

Thanks @@MSanti i had no cravings during pregnancy but i had severe nausea and after i gave birth i actually had cravings which i gave in to. I started zumba classes last week so now i have to get my food right and get on track.

my surgeon said when you feel off track to "start over" that means reading your book and starting at stage 1 again

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
