I'm scheduled for surgery October 6th. I know I want more kids. I have a 2yrold son right now. I'm think one or two more later like 1.5 - 2 years from now. Some people have said why lose and have surgery just to get pregnant later on. Well I am 330lbs. It's not healthy for me too have a child at this weight plus I don't even think I can my hormones are completely unbalanced.

I'm wondering what everyone's thoughts are. My hope is that in 2 years I'll be in the habit of small portions and overeating won't be an issue. I'll have a good exercise routine in place & I'll be prepared.

Getting healthy pre-pregnancy is probably the best thing you can do for your future children. I think you have an excellent plan. Good luck!

It's not as though you have to gain alot during a pregnancy. Most healthy woman gain an appropriate amount and lose fairly quickly after childbirth. No reason to think you'd be any different.

Thanks you both were reassuring!
