hey guys, sorry I've not posted in a while. I found out we are having a girl. Here is a picture of me taken last week @ 28 weeks with my big ol' belly

Just checking in. I find out the gender on 12/10 - only 5 days from now!

My surgeon will give me a fill as soon as the baby is born, even with breastfeeding. Thank goodness!

Just wanted to update - I'll find out the baby's gender on 12/10

I'm also having a horrible time trying to sleep in my left side. I bought a maternity pillow which should be arriving this week. I hope that helps. I get to find out the gender on 12/10. I'm going to go crazy waiting that long

Just wanted to check in. I also felt my baby around 11 weeks. It just comes in goes but I feel it the most when I'm laying down. I'm finally into the 2nd trimester and the nausea is finally gone. I will get my gender scan @ 20 weeks which will be early December.

Kim - 177 - that is amazing! You need to post some pics girl! Drews posted recently on B2G and so did LindaV. I'm feeling much better now. Morning sickness/all day sickness is gone! It is hard watching the scale go up! My waistline has expanded 3 inches! I'll find out the gender in early December. My OB won't do a gender scan until I'm at least 20 week...GRR! I'll keep you posted. How is everyone else doing?

Hey guys! Happy October. My due date is 4/22/08 for those who asked. I'm finally 12 weeks today! My unfill has been weird. I really don't have any restriction at all. I was a little crazy the first 3 weeks but now I'm not as crazy. I can eat bread again which I am actually enjoying. My portion sizes have increased but they still aren't what they were pre-band. I'm trying to snack on apples, carrots and radishes (that is what my healthy cravings are for) but I have been indulging in ice cream here and there. It is hard to believe we've been here almost 18 months. I am so thankful for my band!

I'm another pregnant bandster. I'm 9 weeks along. I had my surgery 5/8/06 and was 15 lbs from goal. I'm glad to see some others that are pregnant. My doctor made me get completely unfilled.

Hey guys. I lost everyone on here and I've not logged on in months. I pretty much stopped losing once I hit 170. I fluctuate between 170-172 but I got into a size 10 so I'm pretty comfortable with my weight. I still wouldn't mind being in the 150s but all in all I'm happy. I'm also 9 weeks pregnant now! So no weight loss for me until next spring. My surgeon made me get a complete unfill so I can pretty much eat whatever I want. I'm just having to use self control. My surgeon wasn't worried because he says I've lost more than most of his patients so it is evident that I have made the lifestyle changes needed to keep the weight off. I sure hope he is right! Anyway, hope everyone is doing well!

Happy July everyone! How are you doing this month? My weight loss has pretty much stalled completely but I'm pretty happy with myself on most days.

those babies are beautiful! I want another one so bad!!! Drews, I am glad your knee is doing well. You'll have that extra weight off in no time. I've decided I have to work out at least 4 times a week. My body is just not going to lose anymore if I don't. I tend to gravitate to 175 if I don't work out. My goal is to get in 7 workouts this week. Wish me luck!
