I am sorry I don't post much these days... I really should because the band saved my life. For those that don't know me... I had my band in 2008 and have lost about 150lbs. I have regained a little on purpose due to looking frail and also because I wanted to stay at a comfortable goal of 160-170 before getting pregnant. :) Good news... I'm pregnant! :) 10 weeks now and so far no weight gain... weight loss actually due to being sick. Ugh.

Here is my before and after from my blog:

Here is baby:

Elena, when I learned about your pregnancy on FB the other day, I literally screamed with happiness. All the dogs came running, and my husband said calmly, "Everything OK in there?"

I am so happy for you. I hope the rest of your pregnancy goes smoothly, with no more nausea. When do you find out if the tadpole is a girl or a boy?
