  9. Ejmdiva, Thankx for the advice...congrats on the pregnancy!! did you have to go to the doctor and have some of your fills reversed? are you able to get enough calories for you and you baby? I am 73 lbs down and am at 247...goal weight is 170-150. I hope all goes well for you and your baby!!!
  10. Hello all! I am 7 months post-op and thinking of having a baby. I wanted to know if anyone had any complications? If you continued to loose weight after? and if the baby had any complications? I am also concerned because my doctor told me to wait 2 years but everywhere I am reading it says one year. Also I am not done loosing weight...so I am not sure it is the right time...I just really want kids...any thoughts on my situation please post feedback thankx!
  11. thankx girl!!
