  1. I just found out I was pregnant. I was banded in September of 2010 and had recently reached my goal of losing 110 lbs. I was feeling great about myself and then found out I was pregnant. My husband and I were told we would never have a baby naturally, because of infertility on his part. So imagine my shock when I saw the Pregnant on three digital tests! :eek: In one week of finding out I have gained 7lbs. I know that weight gain is going to happen, but for 10 months losing weight has been my focus. I was crushed when I step on the scale to find I had gained 7lbs. How do you deal with the weight gain? Does it get easier? I had set a goal to gain only 25-30lbs. I know that I will have an easier time losing the weight because of the band, but gaining weight is freaking me out!:tongue2: Please tell me I am not the only one!
  2. I have 4 more pounds to go to reach it before Valentines! I am completely shocked!
  3. I weigh every morning. I do wii fit and it weighs you every time. So every morning for me. I like even if I have not lost because it motivates me to see a loss the next day.
  4. I am only about two months out from my banding, and my doctor told me to excercise. I have been doing Yoga running and stretching. I can feel my port and my first fill went very well. I would just talk to your doctor about your concerns.
  5. Welcome! I hope you find all your needs met here! Congrats on being banded!
  6. This will be my first challenge as well. I think it sounds great! I am hoping I can reach my goal!
  7. I had my surgery the same day. It ws my birthdya too! To funny! Hope you lost lots of weight.
  8. I have a latex allergy as well and it did not stop me from having the surgery. I had no problems after or during surgery. Good Luck to you!
  9. I am Karrie, and I am for the Dallas area! I am in my pre-op liquid diet phase and it is killing me! My surgery is September 29, which is my birthday and anniversary! Best present ever!
