Thanks for the well wishes everyone! I'm thankful for this band. While I'm eating pretty "normal", I have not gained like my previous pregnancy. Yahoo! I love y'all and will be back to see how you're doing.

Hello everyone. I wanted to check in with my lapband friends. Everything is going very well - although the doctor keeps talking about my "advanced maternal age." gag! I've been keeping a very good weight - well, not by number (I'm heavier than I'd like of course), but I haven't gained like I did with my last pregnancy which is fantastic considering I'm almost 5 months. I just can't believe it. This band has definitely helped this time. I just got a complete unfill and I'm still not terribly hungry and I'm keeping a lid on things so I don't get out of control. I can still fit into some of my pre-pregnancy clothes. I love my band. I hope all of you are doing well and can't wait to get filled again and back on the lapbandwagon.

Congratulations! Speaking for the 50% of the population that doesn't have to go through this, it sounds like you're doing great. Think of all the good vibes and peace of mind you are passing along to your little hitchhiker. Good luck, and keep us in the loop.

PS - re/ "advanced maternal age": my wife was 37 when she had the first of our three healthy (spit three times, knock on wood or whatever else is around), normal (unless you are sitting next to them in an airplane) children. You are in good company.

Great to hear Linda... the band is fantastic for keeping the weight off. I'm still struggling to get more weight off. I lost a few more lbs but I keep going up and down, so until I maintain it, I'm not counting it. Take care and keep us posted.

Hey everyone! I'm 7 months now and I'm not sure if I told you but it's going to be a girl. I am still in size XL!!! Yeah!!!! I only have one plus-size shirt. Last pregnancy they didn't have plus-size maternity where I lived so I had to just wear plus-size regular clothes which as some of you may know just makes you look really, really fat and not at all pregnant. So this time I'm able to enjoy my pregnancy because people comment on my bump - for the most part they are not assuming I am just fat! I haven't had to change clothing sizes since I started wearing maternity clothes and that is huge! Last time I went up a size just about every month. I'm really looking forward to having a fill again and starting my weight-loss journey with all of you - again! With the added bonus of losing 500 calories/day from breastfeeding I can't wait to see how fast this weight will come off!

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
