this has been one of my main concerns about getting banded. this is actually why i cancelled my consult appt, but now i think i'm going to pick up that phone and make a new one. thank you for the helpful responses!!

thank you girls for your answers!! we're waiting to see the result of this current cycle and if no BFP i'm going to go ahead with the pre-op testing and stop trying until i'm healthier. it's been a really hard decision, thank you for the support. -juno your EDD is the day before my b-day, good luck!!

i'm in the same boat as you. i'm not sure if i'm going to go through with the surgery. i have about 6 weeks until my consult appointment and i'm going to try my best to seriously lose this weight on my own. Good luck to you!

i posted this in the general intro area before i found this group: hi everyone. i'm new here. my husband and i are both considering the surgery. he has already started his pre-op testing and doesn't have a surgery date yet but hopefully soon. as far as me, i'm really torn. we want to get pregnant and i'm at the point where if i were to get pregnant at my current weight i could be at risk for gestational diabetes as well as other things. besides my weight i'm pretty healthy, normal blood pressure and sugar. my question is this? should i keep trying to lose this weight on my own while trying to get pregnant, or wait the 1 year post op to have our family. we really don't want to wait but not sure what we should do. any thoughts?:confused2:
