Ok so I go to the regular doctor and get the OK to go ahead with my diet and exercise plan.
Then yesterday, I go to the OBGYN for my annual oil change. Well DBF and I have "sorta" been talking about having another baby. It wouldn't be soon, but we would probably have started trying sometime this year. So I decide to ask her what she thinks, being as she delivered my son and I had a lot of problems (not due to weight). Well I got on the scale, since I didn't know my weight. I knew I had gotten big, but reality slapped me in the face. I weigh now, the same as I did when I delivered my son. This is the biggest I have ever been in my life.
I already knew that I need to lose weight before TTC, but she tells me that if I get pregnant now, I would be extremely high risk. That my weight would endanger myself and my baby, and I would face exactly the same problems I had with my son, and worse. She informs me that I need to lose at least 70lbs before thinking about it.
I was so crushed. That seems like it will take forever. The only fast thing I know of is medifast/optifast and they are so expensive. Like 150 a week just for the shakes. I can't afford that. So I am back onto the only other thing I know that works, and that I can live with (I was planning on doin it anyways) and that is lowcarb.
I just wish I didnt have to hit so low to kick myself into gear.
Anyway, I'm back, started today, got withdrawls already LOL. I can't wait until they are gone, I love the "after" feeling. Looking forward to re-connecting with the "oldies" and getting to know the "newbies".
SEE YA AROUND!
