Peanutband

It has been a long time sense I have done a post. Things are so very busy. I have not lost anything. For I have gain everything I lost. The reason is I am pregnant with TWINS. I am due in December. Once the babies come I will get back on the wagon again. I am hoping that I will loose all the weight I have gain. But we will see. Now for the questions: Just curious as to how all of you have been doing since ur surgery in January? I am doing great. I love life right now. I could not be happier. Are you happy about your band? I LOVE my band. It was the best thing I have ever done for myself. Thank you LAP-BAND® and DR.Moran! How do you love bandster life? It was the best decision I have ever made for my life. I would do it over in a heartbeat. I just wished I have done it much sooner in my life but at least I did get it done. How close are you to your goal? I don't think I will be getting anywhere near my goal by my 1 year bandiversary! But maybe next year I will. Do you exercise everyday? No, not really for I am always to tired... Do you PB alot? Nope not at this time. I had my band drained to make more room for the babies. They must come first. __________________

Beach Bum what part of NC are you from....I am in the Raleigh Area. Who is your doctor. I have Dr. Moran.

Tina I would like to say to you Congrats! Now to get on with my message. You and I are the same. I too am newly banded and two weeks ago I found out that I am pregnant also. I am about 6 weeks and two day along. I am much older than you and I too thought I had PCOS still so we weren't stopping anything from happening. When I told my doctor about this he just told me oh well Shit happens, that is how he ended up with six, then he just laughed. He also told me that I will be just fine with the band and this should help me and you not to gain a lot of extra weight that we don't need. The band will help us control the portions. Just remember this and this came from my OB doctor, the baby is going to get the food that they need first. I had my ultrasound last tuesday and found out that I am having twins. My due date is on Jan. 14th, so I would think yours is about the same time mine is. We gotta stay in touch with each other for we were banded about the same time and now PG and due the about the same time. Best of luck.

I am so happy for you. I am not going to be there this year. I found out that I am pregnant with Twins. So my weight is not going down. I have gain about 2 lbs back so far. I am 2 months or 6 weeks a long.

Thank you Glenda. We need it.

Thank you to everyone. I am going to need all the prayers to make sure the baby is healthy always. I am due on 1/1/2010. This would have been my one year anniversity with the band. So I will be celebrating something new altogether. I will be watching my diet and continuing my excerise program just not as much. Thank you so much Linda for the wonderful news to help me to relax. Thank you all. I will try not to worry and keep my head up that this will be healthy for I am healthier than ever.

I geuss we are the same. Loss the weight which not much only 50 lbs because newly banded. And gain the baby. I found out today that I am seven weeks along and not 5 to 6 as I thought. Boy that is a bid difference. Congrats to all.

I am too. I was banded on 1/8/09 and 46 years old. I am due with my third in the middle of December. I will know the exact date next month after my first ultrasound. Congrats everyone.

I forgot to tell you Congrats on the new bundle of joy. I am so happy for you as well. YOu must keep us posted.

Boy the timing of this post is great! I would like to thank you for posting this here for me to find. I too just newly banded and found out I am pregnant as well. I was banded on January 8th, 2009. I am thinking I am about 5 to 6 weeks along. I am also 46 years of age. So now you now why I am thanking you for this. I am so worried and scard for I just started this weight loss program and afraid that I will gain the weight back and I don't want to do that if you know what I mean. You have given me so much hope. Again Thank you.

I thought I am to old. Did you have any problems with your age? I am just so confused but yet happy too. I would love to hear more from you on this. I am so scard. I would also like to say thank you to all of you and given me the support on this. I was so worried because my doctor really did not want this to happen so fast but he said to me that is how he had six, you know s--t happens sometimes. And that was he exact words to after he laughed and give me a big huge.

Well I have some news....I am going to have a baby, after the lapband and losing about 50lbs. My body decided that I need a baby......Oh boy! Here I am at 46 and starting my life all over with a small little one. My DH is so happy that we are going to have a bundle of joy. I talked my to doctor about this and my weight loss program and what is it doing to do with the issue, he said we will start at the beginning after the baby is born and I should not gain a lot of weight back. I will gain some but not a lot if I watch what I eat.
