JayEll-
I have been to the doctor.. I have some issues, so I wanted to clear the exercise and diet thing with him. He told me WW was ok, South Beach was ok but no Adkins and exercise is a go. Didn't want me to even consider the weight loss surgery, even though we have had many discussions about my weight over the years and it has done nothing but creep up. I've had various tests and they all check out. No medical problem for me to blame. Sometimes I think that would have been easier.
My H is supportive enough. He won't do the diet thing with me but he won't stand in my way. Doesn't complain when I buy things he won't eat and does not expect for me to cook for him. If the dinner I make for myself does suit him, he will just make himself something or I warm up some soup. I figure a 50 to 60 lb weight lost is a 6 to 8 month project so maybe ready to start at early part of 2005 to get pregnant.. I think, no matter where I am on the scale then, I have to start trying soon, my clock is ticking loudly.
