Hi y'all!

I had the VSG on 4/5/17 and it's been the best decision of my life. I feel like myself again. I'm still heavier than I'd like to be but I'm healthier without a doubt.

My husband and I are planning to TTC but this past month we started not preventing and I'm now having some odd experiences. Wanted your thoughts or to see if anyone else has experienced this:

The first day of my last period was 2/11. Predicted ovulation date was 2/26 though based on signs, I think it was a few days later. Husband and I "didn't prevent" on 3/2. For the past week, I've had dark brown discharge and then today I had what looked like thicker mucus with some darker blood in it when I wiped. My lower back has also been hurting. Most noticeably, though, is that I ate food yesterday for lunch and within 3 minutes, I was in the bathroom rejecting it. I haven't done that since I first started solid foods with my surgery last year. I didn't eat too much...maybe too fast? Today, I just ate a little Soup and I feel so full and queasy. My heartburn has been very bad too.

My question is, did you all have symptoms like that full feeling we all got right after surgery that looking back were pregnancy signs?

      Hey all! So I went in for my weight management class. I thought that would be my last one but I actually have to wait until the nutritionist clears me. She has to decide if I'm ready. I''m not mad at it. It looks like my surgery will be happening in the summertime. So instead of focusing on the surgery date, I'm putting my energy into losing weight and making sure all these appointments are taken care of. It feels like doing mini quests on a video game before trying to fight the BIG BOSS. I'm not ready for the BIG BOSS yet. haha. Feeling pretty good!

      Finished my 6th and final NUT appointment yesterday.  Everything is done except the psych eval and submittal to insurance.  I did everything required of me including the 100 pages plus of food tracking, I lost 5% of my total weight, and I went to every NUT appointment.  
      Hoping for the best, things seem to be lining up well for me and in the end, I think I will be able to fully have my wife on board with this whole thing.  She says she is, but I know she doesn't think I should do it.  Just like I replied to another post earlier, i'm doing this either way, it's my decision at this point and I know I can get her to come around at some point and maybe even convince her to look into it as well.
      Also, I just started with an APAP machine a couple weeks ago and "holy sh*t" has my quality of life improved greatly so far.  I wish I had looked into this years ago.  I didn't think I had apnea until I had the study done and i stopped breathing an average of 12 times an hour.  That's nuts...

      I'm 13 years out from having weight loss surgery. I would have to say it was the best choice I have ever made. I have been successful BUT now I'm feeling like I'm sliding back and getting comfortable with old eating habits. I absolutely do not want to ever go back to where I came from. I'm just needing support and some pointers to get me focused again. Any one have any thoughts or suggestions. Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

        I’m new but I wish you luck in getting back on track. Maybe see a nutritionalist first.
