I was always in shape before I had my first son. After that I had pre-eclamypsia and I gained over 70 pounds. I then began to lose it and became pregnant with my second son at 220 lbs and ended at 240. I lost weight again and was able to get back down to 199. I since then had my daughter and then a car accident a year ago which hurt my hip. I have been doing physical therapy but exercise is extremely painful because my pelvic bone moves and causes a lot of pain. I tried dieting to control my weight and it just kept getting worse. I went to a nutritionist and was still gaining weight. I started talking to my surgeon in june of last year and then was able to get my surgery approved after doing a sleep study that showed I have sleep apnea and my heart would stop beating at times during sleep. So I now have a CPAP machine and just had my surgery in Jan. Since then I have lost a total of 23 pounds over the past two months. I am hoping to lose enough that exercise begins to hurt less. I am currently exercising and just dealing with the pain with heating pads and hot baths. I hope to get to at least 170. I am currently at 244 lbs. My ideal weight is supposed to be around 155-160 range. I hope to continue to have success with the lapband
