Hi Everyone! I've been M.I.A. for a bit but here is my update. I went down to 175 from 250 in 4 months and then I found out I was pregnant. It came as a huge surprise because I was actively taking birth control pills but nonetheless, what's done is done.

Currently I am six and I half months pregnant and doing great. I haven't gained a pound which means I will most likely be lighter when I deliver (if I don't gain much during third trimester).

If anyone else finds themselves pregnant soon after surgery and has questions, I will try to answer to the best of my ability. Someone here told me it would be ok months ago and she was right. It's a struggle to eat even now that I am nine months out from surgery but my baby is growing healthy with the little bit of food I put in my stomach.

Also I've read about the pouch reset and I plan on doing that after I deliver just to give my body a fresh start and to reset my pouch back to itself original size. I read that you really can't stretch your pouch that fast unless you're over eating often and that I do not do. I just feel that after a pregnancy, a reset is a good move to make.

Hi! Anyone Who had this done? How did you tolerate the drink. And were the resulta accurate?

Thank you!

I've used Reglan and then when it didn't work I switched to Domperidone. It does not cross the blood brain barrier, so is safe and causes no side effects. Reglan, however, does cross the BBB, and that is why there are so many bad side effects (psychological type side effects). If you were lucky enough to get a script for Dom, you should count yourself fortunate and keep going with it!

That must be so frustrating! Weight loss does improve fertility, but unfortunately it doesn't guarantee it :(

I hope you've gotten some help from talking to your doctor!

Hello! I'm about 16 months out from VSG and I think I'm pregnant. Certain smells are making me sick. I get queasy a lot. I'm more tired than normal. The girls are tender and achy. So I'm going to my doctor for a pregnancy test in about an hour. Is there anything I should know or ask if I am indeed pregnant? This is a completely new situation for me both as a post-op and in general. I've never even thought I was pregnant before.
