Freaked out!



Recommended Posts

For the last three day, for Breakfast, i have had a piece of wheat toast with some butter. For some reason, today, I threw up like 2 hours afterward. Not like lap band spit up, but throw up like flu. Than earlier this week I had like half of a piece of pizza around lunch. About an hour after that I threw it up. the difference, with the pizza, I felt sick. With the toast it just happened. Funny thing is, i have been eating normal and those are the only two times I've gotten sick. I haven't felt nauseas at all except with the pizza. For the 2 days before this, I took my birth control midday. today, i have already taken it this morning. BUT I have been on the pill for almost 4 years now. i haven't switched any other medication. I have for the last 2 months been pretty irregular with the times i'm taking my birth control though. Could this have something to do with it? Am I getting sick because of my band?

HELP!

What you describe is exactly how my "morning" sickness was. I would recommend you take a pregnacy test if there is that possibity. You can still get pregnant on the pill. Also, not taking them at the same time every day can throw off your cycle. I hope you feel better soon.

Well if it turns out you aren't PG (and from your response I'm assuming you don't want to be...), then I recommend the Nuvaring birth control. I forget to take b/c pills and so it's nice to have something doin the work for me even when I forget. Plus, it's lower dosage and higher success rate.

Good luck, with whatever happens!

Whatever the outcome, it is not worth hurting yourself. You are young with your entire life ahead of you. Go find out for sure whether you are pregnant or not, before you panic. Then sit down and think about what plan works best for you and only you.

So true, sweetie, you have lots of mature and young friends on the forum who are all on your side and many of us have been faced with this same situation. Please let us know after you find out for sure either way. I know I don't speak for just myself when I say whatever the outcome, it is not the end of the world. There are always answers, alternatives and ways of coping with almost anything as long as you have support. Please don't do anything rash until you have a chance to see what works best for you and only you. Take care and let us know.

I wouldn't really kill myself lol. I just can't be pregnant. No way. My body isn't even healthy enough for me to get pregnant. I'll take a test and let you know.

I got pregnant on the pill too. And if you're not taking the pill at the same time every day, you're increasing your odds of getting pregnant. Also, weight loss seems to make us more fertile. Good luck.

Pee test was negative. I got about 8 of them too. So if I find one that says positive I'll let you know. I think my body is just reacting to the huge amount of change that i've been having. :]

Nope I haven't heard of anyone else around here getting sick except for my boyfriends boss. She said she has had kind of the same thing. They work at KFC and sometimes he brings me a little thing of mashed potatos home. Maybe his boss has had the same thing. Who know! I think I have been extra hard on my body lately though. This isn't the first time in the last couple months I've been scared. I skipped my period like 3 months ago. But like i said, I have been really hard on my body lately. Especially with stress!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
