I have PCOS and my husband and I have been trying to have a baby for 4 years. I finally decided that the doctors were right and that I should try and shed some pounds and I had lapband surgery on 7.26.10...here I am a year and half later and we found out that WE ARE PREGNANCT!!! It was and is a total shock and I feel so blessed...I am 7 weeks and on top of the world! Oh and the best part is that I am due 7.26.12- my two year band anniversary. Keep the faith ladies!!!

I too have PCOS and am weeks away from being one year post surgery. Aside from my 65 pound loss, my other victory is that I have had my period every month for the last 5 months and that has NEVER happened in my adult life....so I am praying that a baby is next to come! Good luck!

That is fantastic progress! Keep up the good work!

We were banded the same week and you have earned the title of my Lapband Hero...congrats on such a great milestone! I'm right behind you...

You have to stay encouraged and realize that it will happen when its time. I havent had any miscarrages but my husband I have been trying without any luck so keep your head up and try to stay positive...it will happen!

I made three months on 10/26 and so far so good I suppose. I am 25 pounds down and the last month has been tough. I only have alittle restriction so like you said its a slow process. I realize I need to get focused in the gym and it might help to speed the process along. Good luck fellow July bandster!

good luck! I am waiting for my sweet spot too and go back on 10/29, hopefully this will be it!

I was banded on 7/26 and I guess I don't feel so bad...I have had 4 fills, totaling to 7.5 in a 14cc band and I can still eat whatever I please. I do have to chew thoroughly to avoid getting food stuck but I am not full on 4oz. I go back on Friday and I hope this will get me to "the level".

Your weight loss is fantastic and you are looking great! Keep up the good work buddy! :laugh:

I did track inches and I have lost 4 inches from my stomach and like 2 from my bust and hips.

Isnt it such a fantastic feeling??? Enjoy it and take more photos!!

My surgery was on a Monday and I went back to work the following week. I don't have to do alot of walking at work so I felt ready to return. Thanks for the positive comments!

I have been banded a little over 2 months and have lost 22 pounds to date. Although I am thrilled at the number, I have been discouraged at the fact that the scale has only moved 3-4 pounds in the past 4 weeks. I stumbled upon a picture at my friends babyshower, which was taken 2 weeks before my surgery and HOLY COW, I have my first NSV!!!:smile2:[/img]

You look great!

I like icecream too and so I say...don't keep it in the house and buy smaller sizes, like a pint instead of a gallon and make sure you only have one serving size at a time. And lets take it past Monday and say no icecream until we lose 5 pounds??:biggrin:
