It's been seven years since Carnie Wilson's public gastric bypass surgery. After
losing over 150 pounds, the singer put some pounds back on, but for a good reason:
pregnancy. On April 22, 2005, Wilson and her husband, guitarist Rob Bonfiglio,
welcomed their daughter, Lola Sophia.
Pregnancy was a positive time in Wilson's life. "I loved it!" she says. "I had an incredible pregnancy. It was the first time I had stopped working. So I took the time to enjoy it and it was very happy and positive. We took a lot of drives and I spent a lot of time outside breathing fresh air and stretching and taking the time to just talk to Lola and listen to music and sing to her. It was great. I physically felt amazing. I didn't have one sick day. It was incredible."
Wilson decided to just enjoy being pregnant, and not worry about what the world thought about her. |

Wilson did gain a lot of weight. "I gained 70 pounds," she says. "But it was an amazing, amazing time. I was healthy, I was eating healthy, but then I started eating too much bread. And I stopped exercising because I was having really bad pelvic pain. I probably would have kept off 20 of those pounds had I been exercising."
At one point, Wilson decided to just enjoy being pregnant, and not worry about what the world thought about her. "Because [if] my body's craving a piece of bread, I'm going to eat it," she says.
