Hey all I can't believe its been 9 MONTHS since I had this little guy? He's such a great baby, and i've lost all but 6 lbs of the weight...without a fill! I do remember when I was first prego and getting unfilled (without fluoro) she didn't get it ALL - she said I had about 1.8 cc's still in there, but at the time it felt like I was unfilled completely. I have had some restriction lately due to the heat and obviously a little dehydration. I do know I eat less than I used to before the LAP-BAND®, I also chew better and make way better food choices...I can't seem to get lower than the 206 I am stuck at right now (i'm 5'7" so it's still a little too heavy for where I want to be) so starting this week i'm uppping the exercise - wish me luck...anyway here is a pic of my little band boy! Enjoy!

Hey all i'm here...9 months post baby and almost lost all the baby weight....but i've been back to the gym and kicking butt and still can't lose these last 6 lbs...(I was down to 204 but I bounced back up to 206) so Monday I joined a spinning class...WOW...it REALLY kicked butt, I wasn't sure I was going to be able to walk out of the class room. I waited about 10 minutes and slowly made my way down to the locker room where I locked myself in a stall and cried for about 5 minutes (I dunno why-i'm just crazy I guess) so today I went to the Sports store and bought a pair of biking shorts and guess what? I'm going back to class tomorrow...I HATED it, but I can't have it kicking MY butt now can I? Yes I think I am crazy...any words of encouragement would be GREATLY appreciated!

I have hungry days and then I have not so hungry days, but i'm losing weight while breast feeding (10 lbs in the past 3 weeks) so i'm gonna hold off on a fill because this is adequate weight loss and i'm certain my baby is getting enough nutrition. If I stop losing and start eating too much I may consider it, but for now, i'm holding off...how is your milk supply looking? Have you tried pumping to see how much you are producing?

Wow a girl, lately they are rare! When in the hospital it was MOSTLY boy babies born...on my floor alone, I counted 3 girls and over 15 boys born and this was only in the rooms around me! Where are all these boys coming from and who are they going to marry if we don't give them some more girls...LOL congrats, I pray all goes well for you this pregnancy. :Yawn:

Yeah, the BAD part about having the C Section, I am rethinking the tummy tuck....really not wanting any more surgery.....ouch.

Congrats and welcome!!

Yeah NOT MISSING being pregnant! I was so done.

Well unfortunately I couldn't avoid it altogether...I just didn't make my planned appointment, but he was still delivered C Section (after 3 1/2 hours of painful labor too-darnit)

What a sweet baby! Can he and sis look any MORE alike? Wow, they are soooo cute together. Congrats, you must be so proud.

It FINALLY happened for me...my C Section was scheduled for this morning at 8am, but I actually went into labor (my water broke all by itself at 10:30pm on Monday 11/09 at 38 weeks) and they delivered him 11/10 at 2am! I now have a healthy bouncing baby boy. 8 lbs 8 oz and 20" long. I'm so happy to not be pregnant anymore! Ihaven't bothered to weigh yet and don't think I will for another 4 weeks (why stress about these things right?) Here's a pic of our new little man of the family "Devon James"

Good job! I know isn't that the weirdest craving? It's really kind of gross when you think about the fat/salt/grease...gag

Has your Dr. recommended B6 supplements? I had nauseau and nothing sounded good, the B6 increased my appetite (which by the way is NOT a problem anymore LOL)

The beginning of my pregnancy I had tuna sandwich cravies too! IT's so weird, i've never been a big tuna fan and they tell you to avoid tuna as it can contain mercury...but alas...anything in moderation right? The REALLY weird thing was not only did I crave tuna sandwiches, but I wanted crushed potato chips ON the sandwiches. My dad used to make them that way when I was a kid, but i've NEVER eaten them that way-especially as my weight got higher, potato chips were not something I EVER bought at the store...so here I was laying in bed at night thinking about tuna and potato chip sandwiches, so finally one day I went out and bought some, made the dang sandwich, ate it and poof the craving was over and done with and it hasn't come back (thank goodness)... so I say go for it, it will pass if you indulge it. (hopefully) :w00t:

Congrats and welcome!!
