Just got my first postpartum fill

Apr 27, 2011

Well, I gave birth to my son Eli on Feb. 17, 2011 without complications. My top pregnancy weight was 207. It sure was hard watching that scale crawl back into the 200's! I know, I know, all for a good reason, but that number was hell for me in the past.. I ended up gaining about 30-35 pounds during my pregnancy, give or take a pound or two. Immediately following his birth, my weight was 198, then 196. I was hoping to breast feed to (amongst the other health benefits of course!) help with the weight loss, but that just didn't work out like I had hoped!

Now, 9 weeks later, I made the 4.5 hour drive down to my bariatric doc and got my first fill! YAY!! I am so excited to get back to my prebaby size 8/10. I am not enjoying this size 14 and none of my work clothes fit right now! I go back to work this week and had to go to Goodwill to buy some temporary clothes. I sure hopes this happens soon...do not like this at all!!
