Post Baby Update
My little boy (Liam) was born right on his due date (Nov 10th). I definitely ate off plan while I was pregnant and gave into some crazy cravings along the way. I gained 18 lbs during my pregnancy,and I'm happy to say that all 18 are already gone. I'm back to working on losing the last 17 that I wanted to lose before I got pregnant (at 6 months post-op). I'm hoping to be rid of this by the time I go back to my surgeon in February. My skin is horrendous right now and I'm not sure how much of that is baby flab vs loose skin from losing the weight. I'm really hoping my belly firms up a bit! I'm pretty much back on track with my eating, although I am drinking some calories as I find it an easy way to keep my fluids up. I'm hoping that nursing helps me drop these last pounds since I ended up gaining weight while nursing my first baby (pre wls). Luckily my sleeve is helping me since I don't have the ravenous hunger that I had when I nursed my first! So, overall, things are great. I'm back in the few clothes I bought before I was shopping maternity, and I'm wearing all smalls and back in my size 6 jeans! 119 here I come!
congrats on your son Liam, so happy for you that everything went well for you and that the sleeve has helped you so much.. good luck on your continued journey
