Hi all, I hit the century club on Thanksgiving Day and I can tell you I was jumping for joy!! From 275 to 173 what a blessing this surgery has been. ALSO I am 9 weeks pregnant with my second child!!! I know it is a little early but my surgeon thinks it is fine as I had been losing slowly although since I have gotten pregnant with feeling so nauseous I have already lost 15#. My surgeon says I will be ok to lose another 10-15# but then by the end of pregnancy to expect to gain back 20 of them. With my previous pregnancy I gain 50#....and didn't stop eating for two after I had my son which was the reason I had to have surgery!!! This time I am being much more careful and with my tool I know I won't have any massive gain this time. I hope that you all are doing well too

WOW!!!.......and WOW!!!! Congrats on both fronts! I can't wait to get to the centry club 6 more lb's! I also want to get pregnant as that was part of what this surgery was all about (fertility issues with PCOS) but I would not mind waiting a little longer. Just out of curiosity why did the surgeon tell you to expect to gain back 20lbs AFTER the pregnancy? Should'nt that be during the pregnancy? Any ways I am sooooo very happy and excited for you. Stay healthy and happy, Leslie
