I had my band in 2008 and have lost about 150lbs. Had PCOS but doc said it subsided so I am happy!!! 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 for at least a year before getting pregnant. :) Good news... I'm pregnant! :) 10 weeks now and so far no weight gain... weight loss actually due to being sick. I have been sick as hell but this week seems to be getting a LITTLE better.

Here is my before and after from my blog:

Here is baby:

Congrats! I actually lost weight throughout my entire first trimester (I wasn't sick at all, and my weight had been stable before I got pregnant, so who knows...). I didn't start gaining at all until my second trimester, and I didn't exceed my pre-pregnancy weight until probably more like 20-22 weeks.

If you're having nasuea, ask for a zofran prescription so you can have some on hand in case you start vomiting.
