Ok so I have a bit of news..shocking news. I'm 6 weeks pregnant!! We haven't told our family and friends really as pregnancy is not easy with me. I've had 3 prev miscarriages. I'm on lovenox shots to my belly daily and optimistically hopeful this "change of plans" Is going to be healthy and happy ! It was such a shock..infertility for years and one oops and I'm preggo!!! Still gonna hit the gym and follow this path as healthily as I can. I've asked about what I can and can't do..so I wanna continue on this plan as close as I can..just have to nourish a baby with a bit more intake.

I'm so excited and afraid!! I didn't expect 4mo post op to be be preggo! I feel blessed and I hope tho after this baby is born I am able to get back to this lifestyle of health and fitness I've been working so hard for..gonna continue what I can between now and then tho. I'm struggling with getting my protein in fighting morning sickness. Right now the most important part is staying hydrated so I'm trying to focus and ensure I can at least stay that! I call this Murphy's law!!! I was round and preggo looking before and I finally lose weight and get a somewhat flat belly..and here comes baby! Yep Murphy's law :)

Congrats!!

Thanks ...I am still working at it I am getting enough protein most days but I am having a hard time getting in all my fluids ...I was supposed to go to the drs today for my monthly check up but my 2yr old daughter is sick and was up all night last night ...I'm really hoping its just a stall since I haven't had one yet but it can be very nerve racking

Thank u!

I just got the call from my spine surgeons office. After meeting with his partners they decided my back issue is a definite surgical problem and will be doing the surgery on December 12. I should lose more weight by then which will help both them and me. I am very happy that it is scheduled and is going to happen so I dont have to live this way forever! Not looking forward to ths surgery and recovery but the thought of being pain free makes it all worth it. So glad I had the bypass and lost the weight so this could finally happen!

Wonderful news!! So glad there is that light at the end of the tunnel. I can't even imagine the joy you have thinking about a life with alot less pain! The way time seems to be flying it will be here before we know it!!
