Baby !

[jessicalynnestadler 0]

I had my son last December and was a year into my lap band down 45lbs. My son was very unexpected and I can't seem to get out of this mind set that it was a waste considering I gained 60 through my pregnancy and have only lost about 15lbs since I had him! Any words of encouragement?

first of congrats on your "unexpected" bundle of joy.

THe weight loss initally probally kicked your body into gear for conception and you got your body healthy enough for conception, that is massive.

Work with your MD and nutrtionist to get you back on track to loose the weight you need to, and to stay healthy for your new family.

the snow has not flown yet so if yo u can bundle up your baby and go for a walk or do some aerobics or something when baby is napping. You can do it

Congratulations on your baby!

The band is only a waste if you choose not to use it.

If I were you, I'd go into your surgeon and see if you need a fill. Then, I would make an appointment with a nutritionist and let them help you set realistic food guidelines that will help you to eat healthy and lose weight.

The band is just tool, you have to make the choice to use it.
