Just wanted to give you ladies some hope. :)

Here's a little background:

Had surgery April 3, 2012. Tried to get pregnant since September 2009.
Started trying to get pregnant again in April 2013 (one year post op).

Got pregnant in October 2013 - NATURALLY (tried fertility treatments in the past).

Started pregnant at 163 pounds (5 feet 6 inches tall - was 271 on day of surgery).

I am now 26 weeks and 3 days pregnant (due June 22, 2014!) with a healthy baby boy!

Went from 163 to now 169 pounds! 13+ weeks to go! :)

My daughter in law is pregnant with our first grandbaby. She's about the same as u - 26 weeks. So nice to c pics, as she doesn't post many pics of her progress (she lives about 1,000 miles away). She's having a boy also (Elton james).

Congrats! U look fantastic! So many women use pregnancy as an excuse to gain a bunch of weight. Looks like u have it under control...

We live far from all of my family, so I post weekly pictures of my baby bump on Facebook ;) hehe.

I hope to end the pregnancy at at MAX of 185 (which would put me at a 22 lb TOTAL gain)... but, if I'm less, that's great, too!

Baby boy measures perfectly, so, I can't complain!

It is HARD seeing the number go up on the scale, though, haha

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
