At first the weight just melted off (I was breastfeeding) then I had to work to get myself down to 4 lbs from pre-pregnancy weight...then I quit breastfeeding (right after I sent you that last message) and I put on 10 lbs in a few days! I'm taking a spin class 2x a week and meeting with a trainer once a week and then doing more cardio for another hour a week (usually elliptical) but still havent' gotten a fill (that may be coming soon) however, my problem doesn't seem to be eating too much, in fact the trainer says im not eating enough protein (hard protein) argh...so this week, i'm focusing on that before going for another fill. I'm thinking about getting another bodybugg, I used to have one and it really made me aware of how active I was (or not) for the day and I would push to get to my daily goal..are you still using yours?

Puddin, You have been an inspiration to me for years...I know you are into road biking and recently I took a spinning class....OUCH...don't know that biking will ever be my passion, but how are you? Have you had a baby recently? Are you keeping your weight off? I had a band baby boy in November and am almost back to pre baby weight, I can't seem to lose anymore and need to get back on the Lap Band Talk site for inspiration...let me know how you are doing and if you have any good threads going that may help me on my next 25 pound journey.

Laura- you haven't been on LapBand Talk for a long time! Are you doing okay??

Hey all I can't believe its been 9 MONTHS since I had this little guy? He's such a great baby, and i've lost all but 6 lbs of the weight...without a fill! I do remember when I was first prego and getting unfilled (without fluoro) she didn't get it ALL - she said I had about 1.8 cc's still in there, but at the time it felt like I was unfilled completely. I have had some restriction lately due to the heat and obviously a little dehydration. I do know I eat less than I used to before the LAP-BAND®, I also chew better and make way better food choices...I can't seem to get lower than the 206 I am stuck at right now (i'm 5'7" so it's still a little too heavy for where I want to be) so starting this week i'm uppping the exercise - wish me luck...anyway here is a pic of my little band boy! Enjoy! -
Hey all i'm here...9 months post baby and almost lost all the baby weight....but i've been back to the gym and kicking butt and still can't lose these last 6 lbs...(I was down to 204 but I bounced back up to 206) so Monday I joined a spinning class...WOW...it REALLY kicked butt, I wasn't sure I was going to be able to walk out of the class room. I waited about 10 minutes and slowly made my way down to the locker room where I locked myself in a stall and cried for about 5 minutes (I dunno why-i'm just crazy I guess) so today I went to the Sports store and bought a pair of biking shorts and guess what? I'm going back to class tomorrow...I HATED it, but I can't have it kicking MY butt now can I? Yes I think I am crazy...any words of encouragement would be GREATLY appreciated!

I am hoping you will friend me, i've been following your progress and am curious how happy you are with your surgery now after it has all healed? I am want to go for surgery too, but i'm afraid to even go see a PS as I feel I am still too "fat" and they will tell me to get out of their office...LOL...isn't that sad? How tall are you and what weight/size were you when you got your surgery? Is there a chart they follow to determine if you are small enough? Thanks for any advice you are willing to offer.

I have hungry days and then I have not so hungry days, but i'm losing weight while breast feeding (10 lbs in the past 3 weeks) so i'm gonna hold off on a fill because this is adequate weight loss and i'm certain my baby is getting enough nutrition. If I stop losing and start eating too much I may consider it, but for now, i'm holding off...how is your milk supply looking? Have you tried pumping to see how much you are producing? -

Wow a girl, lately they are rare! When in the hospital it was MOSTLY boy babies born...on my floor alone, I counted 3 girls and over 15 boys born and this was only in the rooms around me! Where are all these boys coming from and who are they going to marry if we don't give them some more girls...LOL congrats, I pray all goes well for you this pregnancy. :Yawn: -

It FINALLY happened for me...my C Section was scheduled for this morning at 8am, but I actually went into labor (my water broke all by itself at 10:30pm on Monday 11/09 at 38 weeks) and they delivered him 11/10 at 2am! I now have a healthy bouncing baby boy. 8 lbs 8 oz and 20" long. I'm so happy to not be pregnant anymore! Ihaven't bothered to weigh yet and don't think I will for another 4 weeks (why stress about these things right?) Here's a pic of our new little man of the family "Devon James" -

Has your Dr. recommended B6 supplements? I had nauseau and nothing sounded good, the B6 increased my appetite (which by the way is NOT a problem anymore LOL)
