Back to OH!

Well, it's been awhile since I've been on OH. I had the Realize band put in May 11, 2010. Two months later I found out I was pregnant! Within that time I had went from 276lbs to 246lbs. I was doing so well with my weightloss and I hadn't even had my band filled. I was so exciting to finally start seeing some results! I felt amazing with the way my body was changing already. When I found out I was pregnant on July 7, 2010 I was shocked! It took me awhile to comes to terms with the news but I soon felt a sense of joy that I was going to bring a new life into this world. At the time it didn't bother me that I was putting on a few pounds because I knew I was eating for two. As time went on I was reaching the end of my pregnancy and put on all the weight I had lost. After I had my son, I was back down to around 248lbs. However, its been almost 4 months and I am back up to 260lbs! I am so depressed at my weight yo-yoing especially when I was doing so well. I don't regret getting pregnant I just wi**** would have come at a better time. I am wanting to get back on track and hopefully have my first fill soon. I'm really hoping that an adjustment will get me back to where I was. Well, that pretty much sums up my story... Has anyone encountered something like this? I could sure use some words of encouragment!

Have you considered the possibility of having a revision?

Well I would consider it but I don't have insurance right now so I'm going to try a fill (which will be paid out of pocket) and go from there. I think once I get back on track the Realize band will actually work well for me but I just need to get to that point where I was at. I'm really hoping that it will help or I'm not sure what I'd do....

Well please visit the band forum for support. I hope it works out. Best wishes and stick around here for support.
