Guest guest Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 Hello, My name is Tracey French and I had Lap/RNY on May 21, 2001. It's hard to believe it has been so long ago! My life has completely changed in so many ways! My total weight loss was 150 lbs. down from 318 to 168 in 15 months,I gained a little back and seemed to level out at 175,,give or take a few lbs for water retention.. since then I have found the most wonderful man in the world, while we were dating he and I both gained about 15 lbs. We were married on June 28 2003. In Septemeber we were overjoyed to find out we are pregnant!! When I went to the doctor on Oct 22, I was shocked to learn that I had gained more weight than I thought, I was up to 208, I thought I would die! Since then, I have gained another 20lbs. Our baby is due on May 17th. I am not worring about the weight I am gaining at this point I have done well and my doctor is very pleased with my progress, my problem is how am I going to lose this weight again after I have this baby and I also REALLY want to breastfeed.I tried breastfeeding my daughter when she was born, 10 years ago, but ,I was not sucessful, I only managed to pump for a month and she never could latch on, my breasts were terribly huge then and I had flat nipples, they don't seem to be so flat now , the doctor said they are fine, and my breasts are still large but not like they used to be.. I look forward to hearing from anyone who has some advice for me on this matter. Thank You, Tracey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
