Topic: Pregnant
Good evening my lovelies!!! I found out last Saturday that I am about 5 weeks pregnant. Hmm....excited but scared at the same time. We all know why I am scared. I need to be extremely careful of how I handle this pregnancy, otherwise everything will be a lost cause! Thanks to all for your support...I'll update as soon as I have my first appointment. Wish me luck!!!! I am sure going to need my Angel

I can not believe they can't figure out what is the cause of the swelling. Didn't you say they mentioned your salt intake? Have you cut down on that? I hope they figure it out soon for ya.

Hey Janie..I did not post it here...It all happened kind of fast..they found the gall stones while trying to figure out why I was having all the swelling (which we still don't know the cause of yet) and my surgeon wanted to get them out before I had an attack because it would have been more steps to the surgery if they moved out into the bile duct. So you did not forget! Thanks for your prayers and hopefully they will figure the swelling out soon...but the gall bladder did not have anything to do with it...finding the gall stones was just a bonus from trying to figure the swelling out. lol

Good morning! Way to go Stacey! I had wondered about what power pump was but hadn't taken the time to look into it. I am just doing my upper body weights here at home. I have knee surgery the Friday after Labor Day and hopefully I will rehab and get back to normal quickly. As for boobs, I highly recommend Victoria's Secret. They have some bras that work miracles until surgery. I was at my doc's picking up vitamins and getting a B12 shot when one of the girls I have encouraged pulled me into her appointment with her. She is 6 months out and down 120. The three of us got into a plastic surgery discussion and we asked him about bat wings and why some of the work from the same surgeons varies in appearance so much. He said it depended on how much fat you lost before surgery. If you were really down to skin, it would be a pretty incision, depending on the doc but if you still had fat the incision heals jagged and not very pretty. He said your skin takes at least a year to finish sucking itself up on its own. I thought it was interesting. As for my weigh in, HW 368 SW 358 LW 205 CW 204 from a size 34 to a size 14 Katy

Hey Stephanie - I didn't even know you were having your gall bladder removed. Did you post that here? I can just see you posting it, me replying and then totally forgetting. That is the story of my life lately, I am so forgetful. I was so with it before twins, lol! I'm glad everything went fine. You make sure and rest, take advantage of it, when are you told to do nothing and rest? Enjoy it! Now does your gall bladder have anything to do with you swelling up? I'm praying for you. HW 238 SW 225 LW 122-123 CW 121 Have a great week everyone! And Suz I want to know how you lost that weight overnight!!! SKINNY! hehehehehe!

{{{{Stephanie}}}} hugs for the surgery...I hope that you are feeling like your self soon. I get the "skinny" comments, too...drives me crazy! I had another colleague of my husband not recognize me last night at the fair. He said he didn't know that I had lost soooo much weight. I thought I was done with the comments, but I guess not. Eventually, everyone will be used to how we look now and it won't be an issue anymore. I can't wait for that day because the excitement from people noticing has certainly worn off!
