YAY got tom Tom has been MIA since I gained the holiday weight... Glad shes back WITHOUT meds
That's fantastic - I'm so glad your hard work paid off for you!! After I started losing some weight in Jan, tom came on schedule for me for the first time in many months. I was SO happy about that. I'm really hoping to see tom on schedule again this month.

You've mastered quitting smoking for that all-important first week, which is a huge accomplishment!! And worth 2 lbs, IMO, some of which might just be water weight if your snacks have been high in sodium. Maybe this week have a glass of water or tea first when you have a craving, and that might help to squash some of the snack/cig cravings (and help wash out any sodium!). You can totally do get back on plan with the eating this week, I am sure of it! Good luck!
I hope everyone has had a nice weekend. I made some stuff for Valentines Day to take into work and I sampled some of it. I fit it into my calorie intake for today, though, so no harm done. I think I'm more ready for a baby than I am willing to admit (we are waiting until December to start trying), but I have to get to my goal of at least being considered "normal weight" which is 164.9...gotta love the point 9
This is the reason why I am losing my weight!!! November is when we are gonna try to TTC. It will be our second but I never got the weight off with the first one and I want to be healthier for my kids and myself!
Weigh-in day... a 1.5 pound loss miracle. :-)
1/31/11--200
2/7/11--198
2/14/11--196.5
So, I woke up this morning to my DD crying at 4:45....got her back to sleep about 5, went to the bathroom and weighed: SHOOT 198, maintained. UGH! Woke up again about 6:45, went to the bathroom and weighed: 196.5! HA! And it was the same about 12 times. I know that is obsessive, but, whatever. This week, I need to cheat less. Someday, I may not cheat at all during the week, but right now, I can only promise to work on "cheating less".

Congrats on the weight loss! It can be hard not to "cheat"...good luck with that!
Hey ladies I have MIA for a while been super busy with school but anyways I just wanted to see how everyone was doing and give a little update. So I have lost 20lbs since I started this journey 1/7/11 and feel much better... hubby and I have been TTC for a year now and I am thinking about starting clomid soon. Has anyone started TTC yet?

Good to see you on here! And congrats on the 20 pounds lost ~ bravo! We're not TTC yet (not until December...patiently waiting...somewhat), but good luck to you. What is clomid?

Thanks and I know how hard the waiting can be. Clomid is a fertility drug... It makes you ovulate which I done seem to be doning on my own hubby and I have been TTC for a year now and my dr wanted to start me on it already but I waited now I think I am ready.
Count me in!! We haven't really set a "try" date but we aren't preventing. I would love to be able to get pregnant without all the extra weight so probably early next year would be awesome!

I hope to start clomid around the end of march. When are you starting?
Tomorrow is weigh in for me and I know there will probably be a gain. The hubby bought me sooo much chocolate.. Three different heart boxes I'm down to 1 and half.. thats gives a good idea of much I've been eating. Hopefully I didn't do to much damage I will find out tomorrow (fingers crossed).

lol I know your feeling girl... I told hubby absolutely no chocolate this v day haha... and was planning to start clomid after a round of provera but just found out today that I have PCOS so I am going to try Metformin and see what that does for me But hopefully it does something. How long have you been TTC? Keep us updated with how the clomid goes and all.

I'm sorry to hear that you haven't been able to conceive yet . I know how frustrating it can be - my husband and I have been TTC for 14 months with no success. He has an appointment for a sperm analysis, and I have to get an ovarian cyst re-checked the week after next. After that, assuming no problems are identified with the sperm analysis, we'll be off to the fertility specialist. At least when she/he tells me to lose weight, I'll be able to say "I AM losing weight."

How long are you going to try the metformin alone? I'm on metformin too! I've been on it for a while although I'm bad about taking it when I'm not TTC I'll be better about it as I get closer to using the clomid. We tried TTC on our own for a long time before we found out I have PCOS and don't ovulate regularly.. I should say rarely actually! I was on clomid for two cycles before I had to stop for a dental surgery.. took forever to heal... so here I am ready for clomid again as soon as I get all my yearly blood work done
As for weigh in ... I can't believe it but I lost 1.2 pounds Not sure how that happened since the weeks I was right on with points I'd lose less I'll take it though woohoo
Tom has been MIA since I gained the holiday weight... Glad shes back WITHOUT meds
