Look, Another January Post!

I started to write this in my response to Jennifer's comment, and then realized that I should post it here.

Pregnancy has most assuredly confused me with the changes it has caused in the signals I was so used to from my body. Lately it seems that the band has reversed -- I start out the day tighter and then get looser as the day goes on. I had almost gotten used to the opposite, so hey, thanks hormones. :) But I have adapted. It's easier to eat smaller breakfasts anyway.

Beau asked me the other day if (and when) I thought I'd get a fill after the baby is born. I honestly have no idea because I don't know what the band will do afterward. I am also going to breastfeed, so getting a fill probably isn't the best idea unless I feel super-loose. I want to make sure I get enough to eat. It seems more likely to me that I'll stay the same until I finish breastfeeding and then assess, unless something wacky happens.

It would be great if I didn't need another fill. But it all depends...on how I feel, how much I'm eating, how my weight loss is going. Of course I hope that since I'm not gaining a massive amount, I'll lose it relatively quickly post-partum, especially with the breastfeeding. However, I still had another 25-30 pounds that I wanted to lose beyond that. So it's all up in the air!
