So every goal I set, I meat and beat it.

We are doing the fertilization where one baby is mine and one baby is his. It's a lot of money to spend and we've been advised that we could end up with up to 8 to 10 going this route, but realistically 2 to 4.

I'm excited.

The Surgery is nothing compared to what you go through trying to have babies,

The weight loss was the first step. I wish I had done it ten years ago.

When they get here, I'm retiring for 20 years. LOL. (I doubt this but wishful thinking).

At least with having the surgery, I know I'm going to be around for quite a while.

Yay - keep us posted! That is so exciting! I'm a triplet so I am a little biased toward multiples!!! :-D I seriously don't know how my mother did it, raising us and working full time, so I love your 'retiring' remark. Made me giggle.

Congratulations! My kids are grown but I well remember the joy I felt when I learned I was expecting. Enjoy your new adventure.

I hate my laptop. I swear I've spilled on this thing so much and it makes so many errors lol.

I forgot to make the most important point. If it weren't for this forum, I would never have discovered surgery in Mexico. The procedure we are doing we are also having done in Mexico as its sooooooooooooooo much cheaper. We were quoted $200k just to start here in the US. Around $35,000 in Mexico.

Everything I've been quoted in the US I've been willing to do and spend the money on but then finding good reputable places in Mexico isn't hard.

My grandson is due in five weeks and I'm so excited to be a healthy grandma for this one. My granddaughter is 10 and for half her life, I was so terribly limited with what I could do with her. I did the best I could and in the end, spending time with her was the most important thing but I have to say that I can't wait till I can take this little guy to the park and climb the monkey bars and go on the swing and slide and teeter-totter with him.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
