11 months post op, 15 weeks pregnant

I was 373 at my heaviest, 357 pre surgery, currently 255, have gained 3lbs since pregnancy. I am no where near goal. Pregnancy was not planned but I know I wasn't careful enough. Am I totally screwed? Are my chances of reaching a healthy weight decreased because I got pregnant before I reached goal?

PS when will my hair grow back?! :-(

Sorry, 13 months post op, not 11!!!

I was 373 at my heaviest' date=' 357 pre surgery, currently 255, have gained 3lbs since pregnancy. I am no where near goal. Pregnancy was not planned but I know I wasn't careful enough. Am I totally screwed? Are my chances of reaching a healthy weight decreased because I got pregnant before I reached goal? PS when will my hair grow back?! :-([/quote']

Relax :) I am in your shoes :) I was 11 months out when I got pregnant. My highest was 393 I was around 373 day of surgery and was near 260 when I conceived. I'm now 33 going on 34 weeks with twins. I haven't gained any weight but I did lose weight. I'm now balancing between 245-250. Don't stress. If you really want this baby just relax and see your ob and take it easy. Congrats!!

I've gained 10 now but I bounce in weight up and down. Every body I have spoken with said your restriction returns and weightloss happens just make sure even if you indulge stay as best you can on diet. I haven't been putting enough Water in and eating instead that's how I've gained a bit. But because I want to breastfeed I'm trying to train myself now to start drinking more. I also struggle to keep my blood sugar up. It keeps diving so I have to eat late at night which also contributes. But don't fret the weight it comes off. ;) congrats! By the way I was 7 months when I got preggers hw: 294 dos:261 when I got pregnant: 196-97 currently:207. I could worry I just don't look at myself in the mirror naked it reminds how I looked before all the weight was gone lol I'm currently 21 weeks most of the weight gained since I've started snacking late. I know this is all temporary.

hey there! I am 14 weeks pregnant and 10 month post op! I was 256 pre surgery, 180 at the time of conception, and currently 155. the baby is really messing up my eating and ability to keep things down. I just take it 1 day at a time and stay with the basics.
