Pregnancy After Sleeve & Sleeve After Delivery

[gully90 214]

Hey everyone!! I had the sleeve done in June of 2018. I lost almost 60 lbs. My start weight at point of surgery was approx. 200 and I got down to 143 within 4 months after surgery. I then got pregnant and successfully delivered my baby boy on August 1, 2019. On day of delivery I weighed 174. Since delivery I’m down to 147 and it hasn’t been a month yet. The sleeve worked during pregnancy and even now. I monitored my weight and continued to eat good while pregnant. But mostly I’m never hungry.

I said all this to say that it is possible to be pregnant within the first year of getting the sleeve surgery and maintain your weight. Just monitor everything and remember to be as healthy as you can!

Below are pictures of before pregnancy at 143, me at 9 months and me today at 147!!!

FYI: I had a csection so I’m sure I still have inflammation.

Amazing 💜 Thank you for sharing because this finally shows an example that regain does not have to be inevitable or permanent .

Definitely not permanent. Just have to stay true to the sleeve and consistent
