I just found out I'm pregnant!

[Guest guest]

Hi there! I have been a member of this group for a few months, but

have not been reading or posting for most of that time. Well, we

just started trying at Thanksgiving, and found out last week that I'm

pregnant. We are really excited, and so is our almost 4-year-old. I

figure I'm due late August/early September. I go in to the OB next

week.

My surgeon gave me the go ahead since I was so close to goal, and

healed well, and labs were good. I had surgery on Jan 26, 2001 and

am down 143 lbs., with 7 pounds to goal (goal is 180). I'm wearing a

size 16 or regular large top and feeling wonderful.

I can eat a good size meal compared to most who have had the surgery

(RNY), but have not exercised regularly, although I'm more active

than I was before. I plan to start Yoga next week 2 times a week,

and treadmill 2 times a week for a half hour. I figure this is a

good start.

Thanks in advance for all your help, advice, and support.
