I just found out I was pregnant. I was banded in September of 2010 and had recently reached my goal of losing 110 lbs. I was feeling great about myself and then found out I was pregnant. My husband and I were told we would never have a baby naturally, because of infertility on his part. So imagine my shock when I saw the Pregnant on three digital tests! :eek: In one week of finding out I have gained 7lbs. I know that weight gain is going to happen, but for 10 months losing weight has been my focus. I was crushed when I step on the scale to find I had gained 7lbs. How do you deal with the weight gain? Does it get easier? I had set a goal to gain only 25-30lbs. I know that I will have an easier time losing the weight because of the band, but gaining weight is freaking me out!:tongue2: Please tell me I am not the only one!

How often do you weigh?
KarrieP replied to Twilight's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I weigh every morning. I do wii fit and it weighs you every time. So every morning for me. I like even if I have not lost because it motivates me to see a loss the next day. -
Is anyone paranoid about moving the port with excercize?
KarrieP replied to IwannaBeHappy's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am only about two months out from my banding, and my doctor told me to excercise. I have been doing Yoga running and stretching. I can feel my port and my first fill went very well. I would just talk to your doctor about your concerns. -
Welcome! I hope you find all your needs met here! Congrats on being banded!
