Jodie, Congratulations 

and I can almost feel your happiness.
Don't worry so much about the weight gain.........you will still have "the tool" after you deliver this wonderful gift........you may just have to work at losing those few extra pounds a little more. But, then again, maybe not. Taking care of a baby requires energy.....energy means calorie burning!
Keep us all posted..........

Hi Nona,
It really doesn't matter about the boy or girl thing. Just want it to be healthy. DH and I are really excited. I have doubled up on my vitamins. OB would like for me to add 800 calories a day to my diet too. That scares the bejeezus out of me because I don't want to gain a whole bunch back. Anyway, I'll do whatever I need to do. thanks for the Congrats.
Jodie

CONGRADULATIONS!!!!
Be sure to take your vitamins, now, more than ever. Hope all goes well. Do you want a boy or a girl? Or doesn't it matter?

I guess we all are having too much fun being skinny
As for me I work two jobs so most of the time I only have time to lurk a little bit. Just like your daughter I suffer from SLE too...Thankful that I am still able to work thought....I have been having serious anemia trouble lately cant seem to shake it even after just finishing treatment.

Haven't posted here in a while, but I thought you guys might like to know... I'm 5 1/2 weeks pregnant. We are all so excited. We tried for years before WLS and nothing worked. Now, after 5 months of trying... we have a peanut on the way.

thanks Cathy. I know what you mean about things slipping in. I am terrible with chocolat. I love Dove Dark. I know I shouldn't eat them, but s/f stuff gives me such gas and cramps unless it's made with purely Splenda. I"m not much of a chip eater, although I did indule in about 6 of them for the first time since my surgery the other day. But I didn't enjoy them all that much. NOt as much as I thought I would. So I don't think I'll be eating them again. But I do like the whole wheat pretzles I found. So I don't buy them, other than a very small bag and put it on the top shelf so I have to climb a step stool to get them. I eat three meals a day with a small snack arount 3 or 4 pm, usually fruit. But I know it's a normal sized meal. I can eat about 4 oz of meat, half a cup of veggies, 1/4 cup of rice or baked potato, and, a little later, a s/f ice cream serving. That's a normal meal. But, at least I'm not gaining. Maybe, when it's a little warmer and I go walking, I can exercise off a few more pounds. That would be nice. Have a good day.

Hi Nona,
I am online everyday reading the Q&A or the main message board. Then i remember this one. I don't post too often, but then some days I get on a roll and post a lot. Sounds like you are feeling down and with good reason. You have a lot going on in your life. Sometimes the only me time I get is on this computer too. Now that it's getting warmer and the days are longer you will probably find you have more time for you, at least I hope so.
I notice lately that I don't want to sit and watch TV at night so much anymore. I still don't want to clean my house though!! Last night I actually took a walk and the night before went to Barnes and Noble book store. Never would have done that on a work night before. So one step at a time I am hopefully improving my life.
I struggle with food everyday. When I go grocery shopping I have to literally tell myself no, no, no, no, over and over because I don't need to buy the stuff there. I need milk and stuff for my son and a few things but not cookies and crackers and chips etc! I have been better with it the past few weeks but something always seems to slip into the cart.
Well enough of that.
Good luck and e-mail if you need to talk.
Cathy
